As long as your current uniform doesn't have tear away pants or shirt, I think you'll be ok.

No, no it’s not ok… go through KCM in Uniform obviously, but arrive the day before your interview, get a full nights sleep AND wear a brand new Suit…it’s a multi million Dollar job….dress like it. You can be a cheap pilot later once you’re on property.

I believe he’s asking, since TSA is such a mess, and his home airport doesn’t have KCM, if it would be fine to wear his current uniform on the positive space ticket to Atlanta.
I agree with GutterGuard. Go through security in uniform and change your upper half once you’re on the other side.

You don't need a brand new suit.

I absolutely get what you are saying, and you aren't wrong.
To the OP, the point is don't skimp on a multi-million dollar career opportunity by wearing your dad's suit, or one that clearly doesn't fit, or is wrinkled, or...
No it doesn't have to be a blue suit, but also realize the vast, vast majority of applicants will be wearing a blue suit, with a white shirt, and maybe a little color other than a red tie. There absolutely have been people hired wearing grey suits, and even tan. But that is a super bold choice.
