WHAT DOES DRESSY CASUAL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Semi-casual

Semi-casual is a dress code in the American context. It is less presentational than informal but not as loose as full casual dress. Semi-casual dress may include: ▪ Loafers or cap toe shoes. Sandals may also be appropriate in warm weather. ▪ Dark socks are still considered de rigueur for men. Women are given more leniency to wear light colored stockings, especially in warm weather. ▪ Trousers in a smooth material or corduroy. Women are allowed skirts or dresses. ▪ A button-down dress shirt, sweater, polo shirt, or sweater vest. Again, women are given more leniency, and are often allowed to wear a T-shirt if it is of a luxurious material. Men may wear a necktie, but it is certainly not expected. ▪ Almost any kind of coat or hat may go with semi-casual dress in inclement weather. However, a top hat or a woman's Easter bonnet would be decidedly too formal. ▪ In most contexts, excessive jewelry is considered out of place with semi-casual dress. Traditionally, this is especially true for men. ▪ Hair dyed in artificial colors and heavy cosmetics are generally considered inappropriate for semi-casual wear, although some offices exhibit leniency.
