A knee length cocktail party dress is appropriate for wearing to most work parties. If the work party is going to be particularly formal then a calf length or even ankle length cocktail party dress may be required.

Is Water for Elephants appropriate?

Appropriate for who, or what? This question needs more information to be answered. The definitions of "appropriate" and "inappropriate" are: "suitable (or not suitable) for a particular person, purpose or occasion" (definitions from dictionary.com). Unless you specify what that particular person, purpose or occasion is, your question is meaningless. By definition, whether something is appropriate or inappropriate is dependent on what it's being used for. Anything can be appropriate or inappropriate, depending on what it's being used for. For example, a sexy green dress would be appropriate for a cocktail party, but inappropriate for a funeral. So you cannot simply ask, "Is this dress appropriate?" You have to specify: "Is this dress appropriate for a cocktail party?" or "Is this dress appropriate for a funeral?" Or, "Is this movie appropriate?" Appropriate for who, or what? The question needs more information: "Is this movie appropriate for an 8-year-old child?" or "Is this movie appropriate for a romantic night at home with my husband?" or "Is this movie appropriate to watch at my grandmother's 91st birthday party?"

Does the movie 'It' have inappropriate scenes?

Inappropriate for who, or what? Without knowing what you mean by "inappropriate," your question can't be answered. The words "appropriate" and "inappropriate" have only situational meaning. That is, anything can be appropriate or inappropriate, depending on the situation. When the situation is left unqualified, the words "appropriate" and "inappropriate" become totally meaningless. For example, a sexy green dress would be appropriate for a cocktail party, but inappropriate for a funeral. So you cannot simply ask, "Is this dress appropriate?" You have to specify: "Is this dress appropriate for a cocktail party?" or "Is this dress appropriate for a funeral?" Or, "Is this movie inappropriate?" Inappropriate for who, or what? The question needs more information: "Is this movie inappropriate for an 8-year-old child?" or "Is this movie inappropriate to watch at my grandmother's 90th birthday party?" or "Is this movie inappropriate for a romantic night at home with my boyfriend?" In other words, nothing is simply "appropriate" or "inappropriate." Whether something is appropriate or inappropriate depends on the situation, which you have failed to provide.


What does party attire mean?

Business casual for men used to wearing a suit and tie to work might be a jacket or blazer and slacks, with or without a tie. Keep colors conservative: dark blues and grays or blacks are appropriate. Keep the Don Johnson pastel jacket with the rolled-up sleeves in the closet For women it's bit harder, but perhaps a dark knee-length skirt and blouse with jacket would fit the bill.


Are cocktail dresses considered evening dress?

Cocktail dresses are outfits worn to cocktail parties or semi-formal occasions, They are usually short and sexy, and classy. The length of cocktail dresses ranges from just above the knee to touching the ankle. when it is 2 inches above the ankle, it is called tea length. And when it is almost touching the ankle, it is called ballerina length, although ballerina length usually falls into the evening gown category. Evening dresses are for formal events. They cover up more and are more elegant. They usually fall floor length and mainly in black. So some cocktail dresses can be considered evening dress while others can not. If you want to know more details about evening dresses and cocktail dresses, you can check at massoo.com. I just learned these on the site, it helped me a lot when I was choosing my formal evening dress for a charity party last month.
