Question

why подойти is first in perferctive then inperfective in the sentence
Тогда, вот это платье ей подойдёт , а вот эти три не подходят.

Thanks

Answer

Both forms are acceptable in colloquial speech. The first one expresses a faint note of supposition while the second one sounds more definitely. It's like "we'll (probably) see that this dress fits her if she puts it on, but the other three don't fit her definitely"

Answer

The second part of the sentence is in the present tense which only takes an imperfective verb.  Perfective does not exist in the present tense. The first part is in the future tense which can take both, perfective and imperfective.
В настоящем времени возможны только глаголы несовершенного вида. В прошедшем и будущем - глаголы обоих видов.
