Dress Codes Explained

I feel like I’ve created enough templates for your mind development, routines, habits, etc. I’m getting bored with putting out the same content in a different manner so now I’m going to start switching up my content. I’m going to focus more on how one can carry themselves, socialise, etc etc.

My first article under this segment “Cultural Education” here will be about dress codes. You will find this segment on my pinned post.

Culturally, dress codes differ from one another. The western world is generally more tolerant towards showing of skin, for instance; but if you were to attend formal events in Asia and the Middle East, I’d highly, highly recommend you opt for a more modest look.

This is a very brief breakdown on what a woman can wear and when.

Images are for examples only.

1. Casual

Meaning: low-key, but not like you just woke up.

* Sundress

* Long/ midi skirt

* Tailored pants or nice jeans (not ripped, distressed, acid wash- plain and simple)

* Tailored shorts

* Plain T-shirt (no graphics), polo t-shirt, turtleneck

* Button-down shirt

2. Dressy

Meaning: no jeans, generally use of lighter colours

* Skirt (not bum short)

* Tailored trousers

* Dress

* Co ord sets

* Jumpsuits

* Sundresses

3. Semi formal

Meaning: dressier than your corporate office job, but more casual than a formal gown.

* LBD (but not too little)

* Maxi skirt

* Cocktail dress

4. Business

Meaning: what a typical office senior person would wear.

* Suit

* Dress (modest; at least knee length; not too short)

* Dress with a jacket

* Blazer and a skirt

* Stockings (optional in summer)

* 3-4 inch heels / loafers / flats

5. Business casual

Meaning: what one would typically wear everyday to a corporate job that does NOT abide by Gen Z clothing (meaning slightly more conservative)

* Skirt, khakis, or pants

* Open-collar shirt, knit shirt or sweater (no spaghetti straps or décolleté)

* Dress (again, modest)

6. Black tie

Meaning: formal evening events, generally after 6 pm.

* Formal (floor length) evening gown (avoid slits, too tight dresses)

* Dressy cocktail dress

A Guide To Dress Codes (Women)

Black tie, white tie; formal, semi-formal. Festive! Casual! Hitting the right note with attire can be confusing. Here are the details of how to dress appropriately for any occasion:

➪ CASUAL DRESS CODE: refers to clothing that is informal and comfortable, yet clean and professional. It’s best to go with nicer casual wear and avoid the baggier items you wear around the house.

Sundress

Long or short skirt

Khakis or nice jeans

Shorts (depending on occasion and climate)

Plain T-shirt (no slogans), polo shirt, turtleneck

Casual button-down blouse

➪ DRESSY CASUAL: A dressy casual dress code is a versatile balance between formal and casual. This is the ideal choice for networking (or socializing) after work, fundraisers, or dinner at a nice restaurant.

Dress

Skirt and dressy top

Dressy pants outfit

Nice jeans and dressy top

➪ SEMI FORMAL: A semi-formal dress code is best described as being more formal than what you would wear to an office, but slightly less formal than what you would wear to a formal event. Do keep in mind that if the event is later than 6 in the evening, you’ll want to err on the side of formality.

Short afternoon or cocktail dress

A “little black dress”

Long dressy skirt and top

Dressy separates

➪ BUSINESS FORMAL: A business formal dress code is characterized by a suit jacket with matching pants or a skirt. The darker the suit, the more formal. There are seasonal variations as well as matching accessories to personalize your look, but they should not be a distraction in any way.

Suit

Business-style dress

Dress with a jacket

Stockings (optional in summer)

Heels, low or high

➪ BUSINESS CASUAL: Casual business attire is pretty ambiguous, but generally means slacks, khakis, or a skirt with a dress shirt, blouse or polo. Dresses and seasonal sport coats fall into this dress code as well.

Skirt, khakis, or pants

Open-collar shirt, knit shirt or sweater (no spaghetti straps or décolleté)

Dress

➪ FORMAL, BLACK TIE AND BLACK TIE OPTIONAL: These events are among the most fancy of all dress codes, and you will likely be surrounded by a crowd full of tuxedos and floor-length gowns.

long, floor-length evening dress.

A very fancy dress that is not floor-length may also be appropriate.

Wear your hear in an elegant updo or partial updo

put on fancy jewelry for this occasion

I thought this would be helpful for whenever you're writing a planned event or even just for general knowledge. I'll post the dress code according to occasion for men next!

Thank you for all the follows and I'm glad the posts are useful! Do like, share and follow for more!

So while I’m in the process of putting my life into boxes, I’m going through my clothes. I was packing my dresses away, and started going through my dress shirts. Well I dug out an embroidered white button up shirt and went to make sure that it fit right.

Well, it fit, and something sparked in my brain. I dug out this vest I have, a black velvet embroidered one. It was like a match made in heaven. And I got a twinge of classy ~masc gender~ I don’t usually get to scratch.

Like being graygender is tough sometimes because it’s nonbinary but I socially get sorted into the category of my AGAB. I don’t feel it but that’s usually what people do and I usually don’t mind in the moment. I’ve got boobs and I love them, I love my hips and I don’t like to think of myself as anything other than me.

But like putting this combo on felt good. Just like some of the fancier dresses I have, it is a certain presentation that what I really wish I could put out more often. I mean I need to invest in some dress pants lol (oh and possibly something to tamper my chest in that outfit) , but it would probably be something I wear soon.

So yeah, I want a bit more of a masc look at some point so maybe I should reach out here for advice.

I like the idea of maybe a more nb masc style, but idk what that entails.

Funerals aren’t really my thing. I don’t like dressing in all black so I had to add a little bit of colour.

Happy to look sharp💫
