Hi ladies,
I'm from California, but I have a job interview in Augusta, GA in late July, so I need some fashion advice. I've been told that the weather will be unbearably hot during that time, so I shouldn't use my tried-and-true lightweight wool business suit or (and I quote) I'll die. What do professional women wear in the summertime?
It's for a professorship position, so it needs to be a suit. I've been looking at linen suits, but they wrinkle so easily, and most of the ones I'm seeing are lighter colored. I was always told that traditional job interviewers need to wear black, navy or charcoal, and my suit collection reflects that other than a medium brown tweed suit that I fear is too casual.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

p.s. Along the same line, I'm attending an evening wedding in Atlanta in July. It's indoor, so would it be okay to wear a silk dress, or should I look for a lighter fabric?
p.p.s. Please feel free to invade the CA-Bay Area board if any of you plans on traveling over here! I know a lot about the local restaurants and hotels.
