Maiden voyage, any perks or downsides?

(and no bow-tie, with a sexy silk blouse or camisole) and hopefully involve a skirt or other feminine lower portion, or it will scream: "DYKE"! My hair's not short enough. Elle MacPherson might pull it off, but a middle aged woman whose figure isn't what it used to be (or never was) and is tired of the fuss of selecting different outfits is exactly the wrong type for this. Your opinion. Wearing the same black beaded muu-muu every formal might would be much more attractive. Uh, not. But it really isn't that hard to have several nice dressy sweaters and blouses, which coordinate with some long skirts and such, and have some variety for the different formal nights. How often do you dress up like a women? You seem to offer direct experience. Men add variety to a single business suit with ties. Why not get several scarves to vary the formal attire for women is budget or packing space is an issue. Clueless. |

Maiden voyage, any perks or downsides?
My sister in law wore a "lady tux" to an event a few years ago and
looked fantastic...and she's 40ish now. It CAN be done right and look just swellegant!

I think a well-cut feminine tux-style jacket and pants (not a man's tux with a woman in it) with an appropriate undergarment (a camisole, as you mentioned) would be sexy. I've seen them and when done well, they look sexy and wonderfully formal while still being a bit sassy. And no, nothing buttoned up to the chin with a bow tie on top. Karen, who likes black anyway for formal wear. toes" to e-mail) |
