How to Dress for A Dinner Party, Part 2
Dressing casual for a black tie occasion or donning a suit for a casual dinner event can cause you many embarrassing moments. We are giving you some tips on how to look your best at any dinner party. The only thing you have to do is read the invitation and dress accordingly. Here are some more tips.
- The Dinner Party Dressing Don’ts
If you want to look perfectly dressed for a dinner party, forget about jeans, t-shirts, polo and cords. Shorts and tank tops are out of the questions. It’s better to be slightly overdressed than undressed. Dressing appropriately is a sign of courtesy, which you don’t want to overlook.
- Casual Dinner Party
A casual dinner party doesn’t mean you have to go for shorts and t-shirts. Meanwhile, you can forget about suit pants, and take out your cotton pants and shirts. An Oxford shirt is a no-lose attire option for a casual party. A turtleneck, cotton jacket, and cords can do the trick as well. You can choose any colors you like.
- Formal Business Dinner
If you are invited to a corporate dinner with your boss or your clients, you have to look as business-like as possible. A classic two-piece suit can be a great idea. Wear a white cotton shirt with a tie. You can opt for a 3-piece suit too as long as the shirt is white and the shoes suit the colors.
- Informal Business Dinner
Informal business dinner can have a relaxed atmosphere, but it shouldn’t relax your fashion sense. You can go for chinos and a shirt together with leather shoes. However, suit pants with a crisp cotton shirt can do the job as well. Don’t go for bright colors, stick with darker and cooler shades.
