meaning of wedding dress colors\nhttp://www.weddinggazette.com/content/004568.shtml\n\nWedding Dresses of Different colors: A Bit of Folklore\nAs with many other things in life, there is much folklore and legend surrounding the various other colors that brides have been known to wed in. One old rhyme seems to sum up these notions:\n\nMarried in white, you have chosen all right.\nMarried in green, ashamed to be seen.\nMarried in red, you will wish yourself dead.\nMarried in blue, you will always be true.\nMarried in yellow, ashamed of your fellow.\nMarried in black, you will wish yourself back.\nMarried in pink, your spirits will sink.

Cocktail Attire means short, elegant dresses for her and dark suits for him. \n\nDressy Casual usually means no jeans or shorts. Similar to business casual, but a tad dressier. \n\nCasual generally means anything goes.

You are probably thinking of Diane Von Furstenberg's wrap dress. She made it a classic in 1976 and it looks great on practically everybody.

hmm, twinsets, capris, halter tops, full skirts, anything kind of fifties.  Hair in a ponytail, french twist.  horn-rim glasses, cat eye glasses, saddle shoes, mary janes, black leather jackets, (biker style), pencil skirts, levis rolled to capri length, that's all I can think of right now.

Black tie: you can wear a long dress or a short cocktail dress. Sometimes, women even wear smart pants and a very smart evening top.\n\nWhite tie: it has to be a long dress (evening gown) but it doesn't need to be poufy or anything. Just very elegant and dressy, especially since the guys will have to wear tuxes with white ties.

I agree with you; I think it would seem like a better statement to get different dresses for your parents' anniversary--maybe get your mom involved and have her pick a shade of a color that you could all use to find a dress that suits each of you (it doesn't have to be expensive; it could be bought on sale or even borrowed, but that special occasion deserves a new and different dress.)  Or get dresses in the same colors that your parents had in their wedding if they had a big wedding.

With your loin cloth?\n\nIt's a reference to the dress styles of those days.\n\nIn todays context, we'd say "roll up your sleeves".

"Upscale" is an adjective which usually means "more expensive"  or "yuppiefied."  And "club wear" is ... well... the kind of clothes you'd wear to a club.  Sleek, sexxxy, hot, now, and very hip.\n\n*However* I've been to Mandalay Bay and can offer you something a little more practical:  Wear a nice dress, preferably something slinky that's been purchased fairly recently, probably not more than a year or two old.

I'm thinking......are you good at fashions?  What about the evolution of clothing?  Why did women wear corsets in the 20's and beyond.  Why was the Nauru collar a dud fashion in America...Why do men still wear ties? ( you could write a book on that alone) Why clogs, why see-through dress's in the 60s, go-go boots, mini skirts....wow! a million different fasts and opportunities and lots and lots of  pictures on the web.  Even throw in some early photos of fashions from your folks family album, grand parents. THE EVOLUTION OF FASHION...right up your alley...right.  Let me know how it turned out.. You're looking at an A+ here.

Uaually places like dillards have really cute dresses that are kind of dressy, but not dressy. Cute cotton dresses are usually good with cute shoes of course.

I agree w/ mjasmin, muumuus are sometimes nice. But usually, they aren't sexy. Many of the older ladies who were raised to wear dresses and so-called "girly" clothing (pants are not acceptable) wear them b/c it is the most casual thing they can wear. So to them, the muumuu is the next best thing to a fancy dress.

Something age and occasion-appropriate that is not white, ivory, or black.  My mother wore a long dress that had a matching beaded jacket over it.  Hers was the same color as the bridesmaid dresses, but it doesn't have to be.
