Maybe it’s been a few months and they’ve heard so much about you, or it’s
only been a couple of dates and they barely know you exist. Regardless of how
much time has passed, meeting your significant other’s parents for the first
time can be exciting and terrifying. So many things are out of your control, but
what you wear is completely within your power. Consider a few guidelines that
could streamline the process.
Classic and Conservative
Stay true to your style while opting for an ensemble that errs on the
conservative side, Stay away from an outfit that is too revealing, as it can
come across as polarizing. Also, try to keep your look timeless. This means
staying away from trends like ripped jeans or denim with distressed
features.
Holiday Rendezvous
If this meeting is over the holidays or at a holiday gathering, a little
festivity is a nice touch. For men, a button down shirt in classic plaid or
check paired with a dark wash, straight leg jean is good. For women, opt for an
outfit like a cashmere sweater, dark rinse skinny or straight leg jeans and a
ballet flat or riding boot. It’s nice to wear a bit of color like fuchsia,
cobalt or red. Color is inviting and always appropriate.
Casual Affair
If an afternoon barbecue is the venue, guys will be good with either jeans
or khakis with a polo or crew neck tee. finishing the look with staple footwear,
like a pair of Converse or a loafer. Gals can opt for a maxi dress or sundress
paired with a denim jacket or scarf, and completed with sandals or ballet flats.
Petite ladies can also try a silk top, skinny jeans and a wedge heel. Whatever
outfit you choose, keep the look feminine, pretty and cohesive.
Figure Flatterers
Stick with clothing in your size that has worked for you in the past and
steer clear from ill-fitting or unflattering colors that clash with your skin
tone. Feeling good in your clothes will boost your confidence and rub off on
others around you. The last thing you need is for your partner’s parents to
think that you are borrowing your older sibling's clothes or do not know how to
dress.
Dress for Comfort
Especially in a casual setting, take advantage of the laid-back vibe with
feel-good gear. Wear that pair of comfy jeans and a simple top that you love,
fashion director and stylist for A. Pair with comfortable nude or black heels
that complement the ensemble. Being comfortable in a casual setting has
everything to do with how relaxed the clothes you wear make you feel so that you
are on your A game.
Color Conscious
Keep color combinations and graphic prints simple and un-busy, Leroux
suggested. Wear no more than three colors at a time and keep the neon at home.
This could mean wearing a plain T-shirt under a blazer that offers a slight
contrast, or keeping patterns to a minimum as to not cause a dizzying effect.
The last thing you want to do is look like a walking fabric store.
The LBD
The go-to staple in every woman’s closet, the little black dress is
practically foolproof in most evening situations and comes to the rescue when
you’re stumped and standing in your closet. Make sure yours hits just above the
knee. Toss on those rarely-used pair of designer heels and complement with
jewelry, like a matching diamond necklace, bracelet and ring trio. I would
alternate the bracelet and wear it on the left wrist and the ring on the right
hand, or vice versa. I’m here to stay.
Too Something
When you’re dressed, take a look in the mirror. Does anything immediately
jump out? Is that skirt a little too tight or that blouse a bit too sheer? Or,
are those jeans too faded and would your mother think that dress shirt is too
wrinkled to be dressy? If anything seems to be too much of something, change out
of it.
Compatible Couple
Coordinate your outfits so you don’t look like you are heading to the opera
while your love looks beach-bound. Versatile ensembles are best if you aren’t
quite sure, Shina suggested. Women can play up their feminine side with dress
pants or a skirt paired with a soft or billowy top, while men can’t go wrong
with dress pants, an open collar button down shirt and nonathletic shoes. Blue
can be your secret weapon. Did you know it’s men’s most flattering color?

How to Choose the Right Occasion Dresses Color for Your Skin?
Skin tone is a great essential in determining the color of occasion dresses
to be opted for. To look elegant is what this formal attire is all about and the
complexion plays a major role here.
Usually the light complexion people can buy just about anything but the choices are quite narrowed down for the darker people. There are different shades of dark and based on the exact complexion, you can choose the color that best suits you. Running after the fashion divas is not something that you would benefit you. So, choose the best combo for your skin.
Tanned Skin: The tropical colors of red and green tend to leave a gorgeous effect on your overall look.
Brown: Avoid black but you can try the shades of brownish golden or even some shades of red with brown.
Dark: For that shade of brown, the colors are black, brown, dark purple, tropical greens and deep red. These along with subtle makeup to match your skin tone will make this shade of your skin look all the more fashionable.
There are different views on shades that suit a dark skinned woman. While some suggest wearing lighter colors, others suggest wearing darker colors. However, the beauty of a woman lies in her confidence and the way she carries herself and her formal attire. Pick colors that warm your skin and lend it a glow of beauty. You can try on the occasion dresses in front of a mirror and then decide which color suits you the best. When you can be your own judge, why depend on the opinion of others? The best way to decide is to try on the outfit and click an image on your mobile. Try another shade which you like and click another picture. Compare both images and pick the one you like the best!
In any case try following the suggestion given here or ask a friend to compare and judge for you.

The Change of Clothing
Assessing a decade of fashion so close in time is complex. In terms of
costume history it's only after a trend has been around for several years can we
acknowledge that it's more than a passing fad and deserves recognition in the
archives of history. We each see what we ourselves wore as what was worn and
typical of the era. The mood of society in the final decade of the last
millennium was more defining than what was actually worn.
As we all know, when we go out, we must wear something. And there are many clothes, such as: Jeans, dress, plants and so on, if you wear some beautiful clothes, you friends will think you are very pretty, but if you wear some ugly clothes, you friends will think you don't wear beautiful, you think I was very ugly and you don't like go shopping with me. So remember, the clothes is more important when you meet your friends. A beautiful clothes make us fell happy, but an ugly clothes will make us fell unhappy.
So much more was on offer globally, and many people lost interest in fashion as necessary and important to their lives when business rules for dressing relaxed. Working from home became common. By the edge of the 21st century dressing down in every aspect of life became an acceptable norm. Ordinary retail clothing sales, textile manufacturing industries and stores all declined from a less active more casual marketplace.
The range of fashion goods available was huge in the 1990s, but no one knows the real answer why retail sales were often sluggish. The main thrust of fashion was the striving to achieve individuality. Fashion proliferated as fast as it could be relayed by the media and Internet and only by styling oneself rather than slavishly following a particular designer's fashion look, could individuality be achieved. Rapid dissemination of information and a more relaxed attitude to clothes has led to a certain inevitable uniformity in cities thousands of miles apart.
