It's rarely a considered a good thing when something is in-between. Think about it. No one likes not knowing where they stand in a relationship! Who wants the middle seat on a tight and packed flight?! And there's such a negative connotation around middle children (I object!).
When you get an invitation with a dress code that says "semi-formal," it's likely you feel a little confused because, huh? What do you wear when the vibe is somewhere riiight in the middle? I know, I know. Blurred lines are not okay. Let me make the picture clear for you.
What is semi-formal wedding guest attire? KK, a brief explainer: Semi-formal wedding guest attire is not (though it's similar). It's a level lower than formal but it's a waaayy more elevated than showing up in a button-up and dress . Semi-formal wedding guest attire is essentially but a tad bit more fancy, bc, ya know, this is a wedding we're talking about here! No one says you have to wear a gown (although an would also do the trick)—just think outside of the box.
Yes, it was only a couple of lines ago where I was ranting about how sucky being in-between can feel, but I do want to emphasize that it's not always the case for this dress code. When you actually understand what it entails, you'll find that semi-formal wedding guest attire is the ultimate sweet spot. How so? Well, because in a way, you can make a lot of quality pieces work with a well-done face-beat, some fab shoes, and eye-catching accessories.
Have some fun and mix and.
