What to wear to the office in Kuala Lumpur? (self.asklemmy)

I am an American visiting Kuala Lumpur on business. I dress pretty casually - t-shirt tucked in jeans/nice travel pants, Adidas Samba sneakers, and the like. Think casualwear from Old Navy, Uniqlo, H&M, etc. I never needed to dress business formal for my job, so I don't really have business formal clothing.

I could buy a few pieces if needed, but not sure if wearing what I normally wear would be very out of place or offensive! Can someone please shed some light on how most women in their early 30s dress in the office?

Yeah avoid showing cleavage or legs. Long pants in lightweight fabric should serve fine. Uniqlo Airism will do.

Not to mention when you’re indoors the aircon is actually cold.
