    Typically, a semi-formal event lies somewhere between formal and casual on the dress code spectrum. This means that while an evening gown or a full suit might be too much, a well-fitted dress or suit jacket paired with dress pants will typically be acceptable for these occasions.
    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.

      Semi formal wedding attire sits at the sweet spot between cocktail attire and a black tie dress code. It’s also commonly referred to as “dressy casual” — kind of like a weekend version of business casual. Think: flowy dresses, simple suit jackets, and timeless silhouettes.
