Winter Ball. What, precisely, counts as formal wear here?

And what is this Santa business?

[Edited in later - Ysmir]
Has anyone asked you to accompany them to this Winter Ball?

	The standards are a lot more relaxed than they used to be, so you don't need to be too picky. Look for long dresses, usually with a close-fitting bodice and often bare shoulders and arms. Like this. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Is it necessary for the dress to be so constricting? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You can find some that are a little looser. Grecian style, maxi dress and kaftan are good keywords to use or you can just look the dress itself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Good. I'm not one for dresses, so this is an entirely unexplored area. I appreciate your help, thank you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Formal wear is a lot easier for men. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorecaves 2017-12-01 07:52 pm UTC (link)
	That seems rather unfair. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ashtawawidiwin 2017-12-01 07:56 pm UTC (link)
	If you actually like dressing up then dresses are more fun, but otherwise it can be a bit stressful. At least here no one's going to be very picky. We've got enough people who aren't from here that expecting strict compliance to all the unwritten rules that only the social elite know is just unrealistic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorecaves 2017-12-01 08:11 pm UTC (link)
	I'm rather practical. I've not worn a dress since I was a girl. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ashtawawidiwin 2017-12-02 07:22 pm UTC (link)
	There's definitely a time for it. Most of the time I'll go for jeans or similar but sometimes I'm in the right mood. When I used to do undercover work I wore dresses a lot too. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	notlykmostwomen 2017-12-01 07:58 pm UTC (link)
	Really any nice looking dress counts as formal wear for a woman. But depending upon the style and designer they can be rather expensive. Santa is a being many believe in that brings good children and people gifts on the night of December 24. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I'm going to find myself busy looking for something suitable, it appears. How does he know who is nice? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notlykmostwomen 2017-12-01 08:33 pm UTC (link)
	If you need help just ask. I believe many think he's omnipotent. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorecaves 2017-12-01 08:42 pm UTC (link)
	Thank you. I'll keep that in mind. My name is Serana, by the way. Is that so? I'm not fond of being watched. I tend to kill those things. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notlykmostwomen 2017-12-01 08:48 pm UTC (link)
	Of course. I know it can be rather difficult to find appropriate apparel here. I am Diana. It is a pleasure. He is supposedly a benign being. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorecaves 2017-12-01 08:50 pm UTC (link)
	I did not have the luxury of multiple outfits where I'm from. Same to you, Diana. Ah. That word, supposedly. I don't like that word. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notlykmostwomen 2017-12-01 08:54 pm UTC (link)
	I only had one outfit when I left home. A friend bought me my second though his secretary had me try on dozens of dresses and outfits to blend in. Most were extremely annoying. Nor I. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nomorecaves 2017-12-01 08:56 pm UTC (link)
	My outfit upon arrival does not match this worlds standard. However, I have found some pants that work just fine for me. We must be ever vigilant. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, I've not been asked. I think most assume you've already asked me. Is this something you wish to go to? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Serana \| Ysmir nomorecaves 2017-12-02 02:24 am UTC (link)
	Why would they assume that? I'm curious at best. Would you like to go? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Serana \| Ysmir dovahkiin_ 2017-12-02 02:42 am UTC (link)
	Because you're a beautiful woman. And you're living with me. Just a thought. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What I'm saying is, most people here must think we're already spoken for. By each other. It's in the way we talk to each other, plus the thing I mentioned above, with us living together. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If you truly want me to accompany you to this ball - Would you have me as your friend, or something else? You know I don't want you to be uncomfortable, but this is something we should both think about. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
