| DECODING DRESS CODES | ||||
Kathy Buchanan's pointers on what to wear when the invite says... Black tie: a formal dinner suit, white shirt and conservative tie - or even tuxedo Cocktail/evening wear: a tie isn't a prerequisite for men, but you should wear a collared shirt and a fitter jacket or blazer. Avoid jumpers. Lounge: men wear a suit with a formal, collared business shirt, smart trousers or a blazer. Shoes should black or brown leather. Urban look: dig out your designer outfits and dress to impress. You can team a linen suit or designer jeans with thongs or fabric shoes. If you're not into cutting-edge fashion, play it safe with a classic look. Dressy casual: men should wear long dress trousers with matching jackets, collared shirt and no tie. Business casual: make sure you still look professional, so never wear jeans. Smart casual: you can wear long shorts for daytime, but for late afternoon or evening, men should wear good slacks or jeans with a nice shirt such as a classic polo. Smart trainers are permissible, but absolutely no flip flops. Casual: pretty much anything goes as long as it's fun. Remember! It's always better to be slightly over - than underdressed - and ask the host.
