Eveningwear clothing, especially for women, that is suitable for formal social occasions. Typically for formal occasions at night time.
Eveningwear is a type of formal wear.
Formal wear, formal attire or full dress is the traditional Western dress code category applicable for the most formal occasions, such as weddings, christenings, confirmations, funerals, Easter and Christmas traditions, in addition to certain audiences, balls, and horse racing events. Formal attire is traditionally divided into formal day and evening attire. Morning or day attire is implied to be before 6 p.m. and evening attire would be after 6:00PM.
What time does evening begin? Is it too early to put on our evening wear?
What should we wear when we are leaving the house at 5:30PM but won't be to the event until 7:00? Wow, too confusing. Let's forget about the time. Just keep in mind eveningwear is for the evening. You can figure out on your own when the "evening" starts.
- For the record, "evening" is the period of time at the end of the day, usually from about 6pm to bedtime. However, it is a bit subjective.
"Formal attire" being the most formal dress code, it is followed by semi-formal attire, equivalently based around an evening gown for women. An evening gown, evening dress or gown is often a long flowing women's dress usually worn to a formal affair. However, the length is not a requirement to classify as an evening dress. For ladies it's usually a long evening dress, or at least a dressy shorter, cocktail dress.
Proper evening attire for a woman ranges from dressy separates to full length evening gowns.
