In Western clothing, semi-formal is a grouping of dress codes, indicating the sort of clothes worn to events with a level of formality between informal (i.e. lounge suit) and formal. Historically there were both day and evening semi-formal dress codes, but this category is now seen almost exclusively in the context of evening wear.

How to wear a semi formal dress to a black white yauht affair?
Q. have a tightish semi formal pure white tube dress (classy but short). I am trying to decide how to wear it. What jewlrey, shoes ect to wear. I am going to a yauht party at night. Should I go and contrast black or red. I dont want to look trashy but classy. Not completely plain but not too much flare. Also, I have just below the sholder hair. How should I style it? What do you suggest?

A. wearing your hair down would probably make the dress appear longer. i'm thinking it would look cute with mostly black accessories...no red, since you said it's a black and white affair...if you want some red, maybe do dramatic red lips, but i'd say black bag and shoes for sure, and maybe a black headband too (a fancy one, like with lace or something)...also, maybe some pearl or vintage earrings could make it look classier, or a necklace, but not too much jewelry...i think when it comes to black&white, less is more... that's all just my opinion, though. you should just be comfortable with whatever you are wearing. :)

What do you wear to a semi-formal work party?

Specifics appreciated, full outfit ideas as well. I want to look good and make a good impression. I am also not the skinniest (I just had a miscarriage at 19 weeks so my middle still looks pretty bloated and fat.) help!!

What is an appropriate way to let my family know my wedding will be semi formal attire?
Q. I tend to have a pretty casual family and group of friends and my fiance and I would like to have a fancier wedding and reception. What if someone shows up in a beer t-shirt!? How do I tell everyone that it's semi formal attire?

A. The style of your invitation is intended to indicate the style of your event. A formal invitation uses invariably defined wording, and is engraved in black ink on pure white or ecru heavy paper without decorations or pictures or poetic mottos and romantic verses. Although this may seem boring and traditional, it strongly sends the signal that your wedding should be treated with a rather boring-and-traditional degree of respect, and hence also treated with an absence of beer t-shirts. If you vary from the formal style for the sake of self-expression and novelty, then your guests receive the signal that your wedding should be considered an appropriate occasion for self-expression and novelty. If that is what you want and you can trust… [cont.]
