What is semi formal attire?

“When we see semi-formal attire on a wedding invite, we would compare this to cocktail attire,” Toccin said. “Semi-formal attire is a dress code that lies in between formal (black-tie) and casual dressing – it calls for more fun, more color and a mix of silhouettes and fabrications.”

For women:

According to Toccin, women’s semi-formal attire ranges from a dress, think mini to midi, to a matching suit set.

“We recommend simple wardrobe staples that you can dress up with accessories. If you opt for a suit, try the Genevieve Single Button Blazer that creates an hourglass figure with structured shoulders and gold button closure for a touch of glamour. You can also have fun with fabrications and color to have a bit of fun while still keeping your look sophisticated.”

For men:

“For men, semi-formal attire means jeans or slacks with a blazer or suit jacket, with an optional collar.”

Is there a specific dress length that is appropriate for women?

Toccin says that when you think of semi-formal attire the dress lengths or style options are endless.

“Typically mini and mid-length dress styles are the most popular,” Toccin said. “For example, The Flora Strong Shoulder Slip Dress is the perfect mid-length dress with the right mix of trend and sophistication.”
