Date Attire (8)

1 Name: Anonymous Stylist : 2007-11-05 06:52 ID:cQRMvsPm

Long story short, I'm going on a date. The girl and I are going to Chili's, then either to the movie theater or back to her house to see a movie. But what to wear?

I've never had much of a fashion sense. I'm an androgynous female, and I usually just wear work clothes; jeans and a t-shirt, usually men's. However, I'd really like to get dressed up for this date, without overdoing it.

I have a suit (Black pants and matching blazer, with a shiny blue dress shirt), but it'd be a tad too fancy. Perhaps I could do something with it to make it more casual?

Please help. I just recovered from being a hikikomori, and it's my first date! I want to make it a nice memory.

a shirt or blouse might be nice... it depends on what time are you going out, black are good for night time and evening, if its morning or afternoon i think its better using light colored shirts, try not use shirts thats too colorful or too many words on it. maybe try to avoid wearing jeans on first date, especially the one that you're using for work!... pants are ok, as long its not short pants... how to say this, half casual half formal?

but then again try to be comfortable with what you're wearing...

A suit definitely seems too fancy for Chili's.
Dress shirt or blouse over top of a t-shirt or tank top, whatever feels right for you.
I'd say jeans are alright (if they're look good and are clean), if your just going to a bar and grill.

If you want good advice, you'll have to find someone you know personally that can tell you what outfits and colours work well on you.
Just make sure your clothes fit well and are clean.

Nice jeans, plain shirt, and a sport coat with some good looking shoes. Looks handsome and clean, not overdressed or under dressed.

OP here.

Thanks for the advice, >>3 and >>5 . I picked up a new pair of jeans today, and I'll be wearing them with my dress shirt. I'll either be wearing a light, casual jacket or a winter wool coat, depending on the weather.
