FOR WOMEN

Dresses: Knee-length, tea-length, or midi dresses are classic; a little black dress (LBD) is always a safe bet.

Alternatives: A chic, tailored jumpsuit or elegant separates (dressy top with nice trousers/skirt) work well.

Shoes & Accessories: Heels, dressy flats, or heeled boots; add sparkle with jewelry and a clutch.

FOR MEN

Suit: A tailored suit is best, but you can opt for a smart blazer with dress trousers for a slightly less formal vibe.

Shirt & Tie: A crisp dress shirt and a tie are usually required, but you can be more playful with colors or patterns than a traditional suit.

Shoes: Polished dress shoes, loafers, or dressy boots are appropriate.

KEY CONSIDERATIONS

It's Semi-Formal: More elevated than business casual, less strict than black tie (no tuxedos or ballgowns needed).

Personality Allowed: This is where you can add flair with colors, textures, and accessories.

Avoid: Jeans, shorts, T-shirts, and flip-flops are generally too casual.
