What company/industry will u be in and what's your position? Perhaps that could help us figure out what clothes you'll need to bring. I'll tell you why and explain how...
As an american who lives in shorts/tank tops myself, I had similiar concerns before coming here. The following helped me decide what to bring.
You see, my company has a relaxed/casual atmosphere and my coworkers would mostly be brits/americans/other foreigners (thus, i was encouraged to pack mostly casual/business casual wear. Currently, I dress in jeans/tshirts and or long dresses/long skirts because i work 12hr shifts. [thats why i asked you the above questions...so if you're going to be working in a strickly business atmosphere as a marketing director for instance, you'll obviously be the 'face' of your company, in which case you'll be expected to dress in business attire and would want to bring suits/pants/dressy capris, blouses, etc...]
In my situation, i need extremely comfortable/durable/practical clothes because i work long hours in operations/support services....get where i am going??
Coming from the states, most of my summer wardrobe is comprised of --sleeveless spring dresses/tanks/camisoles--and yes i brought all of these things!! HOWEVER, i also brought plenty of short/long sleeve CARDIGANS to wear over all my sleeveless clothes and to cover up my bosom!
Overall, you don't have to give up your wardrobe so to speak, you just have to modify/tweak it a bit. So you can bring your daisy dukes but don't expect to wear them outside the house...
