Dress for Casual Nights

[Shawski]

I'm not trying to start another long thread about the dress code. I just finished reading a lot of those and I have to say we don't need another one! I have what I hope is a simple question. On casual nights is a nice polo shirt and pair of khakis acceptable for men?

 

Thanks.

Totally acceptable.

[duct tape]

Absolutely. Enjoy!

My husband would wear khakis and a dress shirt--he thinks polo shirts make him look fat. But yes, that is fine.

That is really funny. I do look fat in my polo, but wear it anyway.

Why not?

 

It seems to be the uniform of off-duty America!

An Englishman would wear a properly tailored shirt preferably with long sleeves at the dinner table.

You don't mention the pants. Are they optional for an Englishman?

Pants are things that gentlemen wear underneath their trousers.

 

Although looking at some guests there is a wide interpretation of casual.

 

Each to their own,I don't care what others wear as long as I am having a good time and feel comfortable.

Superman was a gentleman, and he wore his on the outside. :p

See what I mean by different interpretations.

This dress code lark is a minefield to those that do not have a clue.

Elasticated gussets.

 

Maximum give, minimum surprises, extraordinary expanding elegance. Dress like an accordion, that's my secret.

Oh my gosh! When I went back to see if I had any responses to my original question and I saw how many responses I had I thought I had generated another one of these awful dress code threads! I was so happy to see the humorous responses along with good advice.

 

Back to packing the suitcases

 

Thanks all.

I like to wear a bow tie and nothing else! My better half always tells me she has "nothing to wear" her wardrobe is stuffed full of clothes!!! I guess a lady can't have too many tops eh? :cool:

I have never met a lady with too many tops. I have always yearned for more.

 

If you wear a bow tie and nothing else I guess that means that there will always be two dickies on show at any one time at dinner? I just hope that they both do you proud. :)

Of course it does depend upon where you where your bow tie,you don't want two dickies colliding and fighting for pole position.
