Dress Code Variants
"Spiffy" CasualSpiffy Casual is derived from the term Spiffy, meaning kool, neat, unique, or interesting and has it's (sometimes ironic) origins in the archaic English exclamation 'Spiffing!'.
This suggests that one should dress up but keep it modern and trendy. A designer suit with a black shirt with or without tie or even something more creative such as mixing a T-Shirt with the suit, or wearing a very fashionable or designer jacket are all good. A lady might also want to consider a cocktail dress.
As always consider the event your are going to and who you are going to be there with. |
