 Hi There,
Firstly, well done on securing an interview. Your CV and covering letter must have really impressed the hiring team! The first thing to remember with an interview is that it’s just that- and interview. It’s not an interrogation and I personally find it easiest to get through an interview by pretending to myself that I already have the job, and that helps you to relax and answer questions more calmly.
With a high street fashion/department store they are going to be looking for someone who is capable of serving the public in a friendly and helpful manner, whilst looking smart and presentable. A combination of a smart skirt or trousers, with a smart shirt or fashion top would look smart. Knowledge of fashion and clothing would be an advantage so being able to coordinate your outfit would show willing.
Usually in these types of interviews you will be expected to answer a range of questions about working in customer facing environments and assisting customers, as well as answering questions about any previous similar roles you have undertaken, so think in advance of examples you can give of good service given or how you have relatable experience.
Just remember to keep calm in the interview and listen to what you are being asked. Be honest, and if you are struggling, don’t be afraid to ask for a few minutes to think. Research the company so that you know all about them, and be sure to have some questions of your own lined up to ask your interviewer, and remember, if you don’t get the job don’t see it as rejection- you wouldn’t want a job that wasn’t suited to you, so it’s important to be honest.
 
Good luck!

Debenhams offer a massive range of roles, so do a little bit of research about what you will be expected to do in your duties so you can tailor your response to the questions to suit the position.
Dress professionally, and behave impeccably. Be prepared for questions about who you are, what you like, how you work in a team, and whether you have initiative to act on a scenario. Sometimes, interview with companies like this entails a small amount of time serving customers or handing out samples or leaflets to customers, so don't be shy and carry this out to the best of your ability: it is a test of your capability to act on something unexpected!
