 When to Wear Dressy Casual
Attire
Dressy casual is an ideal style choice for
social occasions without clear dress
codes. The style choices in this dress code
offer a balance between casual and formal
wear, making it a safe option for events
like nights out with friends and first dates.
Dressy Casual Attire for Men

Headed to a first date and not quite sure what to wear? Here are some options for a dressy casual dress code for men:
Tops: Button-down shirts are the best way to go, either short-sleeved or long-sleeved. Add a blazer or sport coat over
a shirt for extra dressiness.
Bottoms: Chinos, dress pants, or slacks are all great choices. If you want to wear jeans, opt for slim-fitting dark or
black jeans with no rips or distressing.
Shoes: Loafers and Oxfords are great dressy casual shoes; go for leather for the dressiest look. Only wear sneakers if
they’re clean. Avoid ultra-casual shoes like running shoes or dirty sneakers.
Accessories: Adding an accessory or two will help elevate an outfit and give it a final dressy touch. Nice watches or
simple bracelets are a great way to go.

Dressy Casual Attire for
Women

Going out to dinner with friends and not quite sure what to wear? Here are
some options for dressy casual outfits for women:
Tops: Try blouses made of nice fabric or with interesting details, or a collared shirt or button-up—either
short sleeves or long sleeves work great. Wear a blazer over your top of choice for added dressiness.
Avoid cotton T-shirts or anything with large printed graphics or slogans.
Bottoms: Non-denim pants like chinos, silk pants, or dress pants are a great choice for a dressy casual
look. If you want to wear jeans, opt for slim-fitting dark or black jeans without rips or distressing. In
terms of skirts, flowy skirts or pencil skirts work, but avoid pencil skirts that look too structured or have
formal details like pinstripes, which can skew too business casual. Avoid pants with holes, rips, or stains.
Shoes: Oxfords, ballet flats, and loafers work well for a dressy casual look. Try
ankle boots, wedges, and low-to-mid heel types. If you choose to wear heels,
consider dressing down the look with jeans to stay casual enough. Only wear
sneakers if they’re clean. Avoid ultra-casual shoes like running shoes or dirty
sneakers.
One-piece outfits: Sweater dresses, shirt dresses, and sundresses all achieve a
relaxed and refined balance. Jumpsuits are a great way to try something more
unique; opt for one that belts in the middle to add dressiness. Cotton maxi
dresses are acceptable, but avoid other floor-length dresses, which often skew
more formal (into festive or black-tie optional territory).
Accessories: Choose one or two delicate accessories to look polished but not
overdone. Simple earrings, delicate necklaces, bracelets, or nice watches all
work well.
