NEW YORK (AP) — The season’s triple-virus threat notwithstanding, parties are back, and they’ve brought with them the potential for some dress code chaos.
White tie, black tie, black tie creative/festive, semiformal: It might take some extra re-entry energy to figure out these pre-pandemic guidelines in an exhausted world more used to sweats and sneakers.
Invitations sometimes don’t specify attire, leaving it until the RSVP phase or expecting guests to infer based on experience or an event’s description. That was perhaps easier pre-pandemic, but many people are ready to take on the challenge, shed their cozy, casual duds and dress up once again.
“The stories I’m hearing from people is that they’re happy for an opportunity to get out of the sweatpants,” said Lizzie Post, Emily Post’s great-great-granddaughter and co-author of a rejuvenated new edition of “Emily Post’s Etiquette” to mark the book’s centennial.
With help from the Posts, a rundown from the most formal to the least formal attire:
WHITE TIE
This, the most formal traditional attire, involves a white bow tie, black jacket with tails, matching trousers and white vests for evening. Swap in a morning coat for day.
Think royal events, ultra-galas or super formal weddings.
“I think the thing that people are most unsure about is formal attire because most of us have few occasions to ever wear it,” Post said. “That’s one most people get stressed about, but it’s a category that’s pretty well-defined.”

By well-defined, she means: trousers with a satin or braid stripe; plain-front, wing-collar, French cuff shirts; stiff white pique vests; cuff links or studs; black or white braces; black socks; and black patent-leather pumps or lace-up Oxfords. Studs for buttons or covered buttons are options.
Chesterfield coats, which are formal, dark-colored and knee-length with velvet collars, are suitable as outerwear for cold weather, as opposed to one’s down parka.
Gowns are floor length, or possibly VERY formal two-piece outfits, with optional gloves of varying lengths. A dress-pant combo is rare.
BLACK TIE

It’s the next most formal attire, and means tuxedos in black or midnight blue. Collars can be wing or regular in white. Bow ties are black. So are braces or suspenders. Vests are optional, but forget the cummerbund if a vest is worn.
Not any cummerbund will do. Make sure it matches bow tie and lapel fabrics. Footwear is the same as white tie. White dinner jackets are acceptable in the summer or warm climates.
Gowns are floor length here, too, but can be more casual than white tie in materials and structure. A very formal cocktail dress might do if the hemline is at or below the knee.
Black tie is far more familiar to many than white tie, Post said.
BLACK TIE/CREATIVE/FESTIVE
Attire is the same as black tie but with colors or embellishment added for a bit more dazzle.
For dresses and two-piece outfits, there’s some wiggle room to experiment with color, texture and accessories, Post said.
“It’s where you get the groomsman of a wedding wearing flip-flops instead of shoes because the wedding is at the beach and everything’s going to be on the sand,” she said.
“It’s sometimes worn to celebrate a particular holiday or something like that. If I was invited to a festive, black-tie Christmas event, I’m searching for a bow tie and cummerbund that have Santa Claus or reindeer or something on them,” Post added.
Be sensitive to other people’s cultures and holidays, she added.
SEMIFORMAL
Expect suits, jackets and ties with slacks, dress tops, dress pants, and maxi-length hems that are long but not full-on formal gowns. Tea-length, knee-length or two-piece outfits fit here.
Think maxi dresses in a casual jersey knit for a beach wedding, or a jacket with corduroy pants and suede shoes for a gallery opening.
It goes by other labels, too, such as “creative” semiformal when a “diamonds and denim” theme or a “dressy Western” vibe is noted, for instance.
Semiformal events cover a lot of ground, from office holiday parties and charity events to retirement parties and milestone birthdays or anniversaries.
“Given our day and age, people really like to be explicit on invitations for semiformal. Cocktail attire is a subset of this,” Post said.
BUSINESS ATTIRE
Dressing for work varies widely, but when business attire shows up on an invitation, tradition may kick in.
The safest bet is suits and ties, button dress shirts, belts and dress shoes. Dress slacks or trousers with a dressy top are acceptable, along with a conservative dress (nothing too low-cut, short or luxurious), and close-toed shoes, all depending on how fashion-forward the crowd is expected to be.
“It’s still important to be you,” Post urged.
BUSINESS CASUAL
Things get confusing here, too.
Many who have returned to work are living in this zone, but what it means depends on the industry or company environment. It could mean a suit or seasonal jacket worn with no tie and trousers, or dress jeans with button-down or polo shirts or sweaters.
Dress slacks or trousers with a more casual top might do the trick. The same is true of a skirt-and-top combo, though nothing too short or low cut, depending on the event.
If an invitation says business casual, it may be up to you to figure out what’s acceptable.
DRESSY CASUAL
A little less tricky, but still dizzying.
It can mean jeans and a sweater or a casual button shirt. It also means dress pants and a casual top, or casual pants and a dress top.
Comfortable dresses or skirt-and-top combos also work. The best part: any shoes.
“You want to feel out any event to make sure,” Post said.
CASUAL
Almost anything goes. Almost.
Jeans, shorts, T-shirts, pullovers, hoodies, tank tops, dress or skirt with any top, any shoes.
There are lines that can be crossed, however. Casual doesn’t mean unkempt. Leave the stained T-shirt at home, and perhaps the ripped jeans, too.
“I think we’re all out of practice with these delineations, for sure,” Post said. “There’s been a gray haze of attire for most of us.”

One of the oldest bars in Vegas, Bar Prohibition! has been open since 1906. Over the years, it's been a popular destination for Wild West cowboys, a place for women to let loose in the 1920s, and even a Rat Pack haunt. Given its long and colorful history, it seems safe to say these walls have seen some crazy things. Located in the Golden Gate casino, current-day visitors can pop in for a drink with the ghosts of partiers past.

El Rancho was the first resort to pop up on the Las Vegas Strip. On its grounds was a venue called the Opera House, a restaurant with a full-sized stage. Tons of popular musicians performed here over the years—Sammy Davis Jr., Eartha Kitt, and Dean Martin, among others—making it one of the most popular party spots of the '50s. The property was demolished in 2000, so a night out here is no longer an option, but pictures illustrate just how exciting it was back in the day.

Another epic nightspot that is now, sadly, gone is the Copa Room. Located in the Sands Hotel (demolished in 1996), the venue had one of the hottest stages in all of Sin City. It was, for years, the home of the Rat Pack and the Copa Girls and regularly featured performances from big names like Judy Garland, Lena Horne, and Nat King Cole. Despite being a smaller venue by today's standards, it was the place to be throughout the '50s and '60s.

Today, no one would bat an eye at seeing folks of all races, creeds, and religions partying together in one of Vegas' many clubs or casinos. But in the early part of the 20th century, that was untenable—at least until Moulin Rouge came onto the scene. The first racially integrated casino and club on the Strip, Moulin Rouge permitted both Black and white guests to dance, drink, and gamble on the same floor. Prominent Black performers like Louis Armstrong, Nat King Cole, and Sammy Davis Jr. regularly led the festivities.

You can't talk about famous parties and party spots in Las Vegas without mentioning the Teenbeat Club. Opened in 1962, the venue was the first teens-only club in the country and was a hugely popular dance and music venue for the younger set. A house band (also called the Teenbeats) entertained audiences nightly and made frequent appearances on the "American Bandstand"-style show filmed at the club throughout its six-year run. The venue shut its doors in 1968 but was hugely influential in developing a party-all-night culture in young adults.

As far as size goes, Elvis and Priscilla Presley's wedding is one of the smaller parties on this list. However, when it comes to lasting influence, their 100-person Monday morning ceremony more than earns its spot. The couple tied the knot at the Aladdin hotel (now Planet Hollywood) and followed their eight-minute ceremony with a champagne breakfast. In the decades since, thousands of couples have flocked to the pair's unusual destination to sign their own marriage licenses, often with an Elvis impersonator on hand (though that appears to be a thing of the past these days).

Paul Anka was a longtime fixture of Las Vegas' nightlife scene, but his commitment to ensuring partygoers had a good time rose to a whole new level in 1978 when he opened Jubilation. At 10,000 square feet, Anka claimed Jubilation was the largest disco club in the world. It might also have been the first club to use metal detectors on its patrons—a security check in the Wild West, as it were. According to Anka's autobiography, Anthony Spilotro (a famous mobster whose life is chronicled in the film "Casino") and his gang spent a good amount of time at the club, filling the time between jobs with dancing and drinking.

In 1979, Frank Sinatra, who had ruled Vegas for years as a member of the Rat Pack, threw himself a 64th birthday party and celebrated 40 years in show business at Caesars Palace. Only 500 guests were invited to attend the formal bash, which lasted well into the night (as was typical of many events with which the crooner was involved). Several local outlets covered the party with vigor, excited by the magic of the man and the old-school glamour he brought with him.

Since 1985, Las Vegas has been home to the annual National Finals Rodeo. Sponsored by Wrangler, the rodeo is a 10-day event that includes competitions during the daytime and wild parties every night. Nearly every major casino on the Strip hosts a bash, and the Western fashion from competitors and spectators alike is always over the top. Some of these parties are open to the public, while others have a closed guest list, but attending any of the "after dark" events is sure to be a memorable experience.

Las Vegas is known by many for its EDM scene and for hosting massive events like the Electric Daisy Carnival. But none of that would exist if it weren't for the Desert Move party. In 1996, revelers hopped on a bus and headed into the desert about an hour outside Vegas' city limits to attend a pop-up daytime bash featuring sets from DJs and artists like Josh Wink, WestBam, and Pasquale Rotella. The event's success undoubtedly paved the way for the city's EDM scene to exist as we know it today.

Though Las Vegas has been hosting New Year's Eve parties since its inception, in the early '00s, the city rebranded the events, turning them into a more cohesive bash, dubbed "America's Party." The annual event takes place on Fremont Street and the Strip and includes concerts, a New Year's countdown, and a jaw-dropping fireworks show. Nearly 300,000 revelers attended the party in 2022, making it one of the biggest NYE extravaganzas in the country.

Paris Hilton kicked off her five-day, five-city 21st birthday extravaganza at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. The heiress told V magazine the location was significant to her because she'd been going to Sin City for years with a fake ID, and this bash marked the first time she'd be partying here legally. Dozens of celebrities attended the event, which was played by her close friend DJ AM. StyleCaster estimates the multi-day party cost about $75,000 per person, and we're sure a big portion of that budget was blown here in Vegas, considering she rented out the entire club.

These days, pool parties in Las Vegas are a dime a dozen, but, believe it or not, that hasn't always been the case. Back in the early '00s, not many resorts hosted these daytime bashes, and the ones that did were pretty exclusive with the guest list. This is why Rehab changed the game when it opened at the Hard Rock Cafe in 2003. Originally intended for locals, Rehab became the place to be during the daytime and eventually attracted celebrities and tourists of all sorts. Many agree Rehab paved the way for the daytime party culture that exists in Vegas today, especially after the reality show that chronicled all of its debauchery ("Rehab: Party at the Hard Rock Hotel") hit the airwaves.

Playboy founder Hugh Hefner was known for throwing over-the-top themed parties during his lifetime. Many of those were at the Playboy mansion in Los Angeles, but Hefner occasionally took them off campus. For example, the publisher celebrated his 85th birthday and his son's 21st birthday at the Palms in 2011; while it wasn't as grandiose as some of his other events, it was still an exciting night with 31 Playmates and celebrities in attendance.

The name Jho Low may not ring a bell for many folks, but the Malaysian-born scammer is responsible for throwing what "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" host Robin Leach described as "the ultimate party." Before he disappeared following a stream of embezzlement-related allegations, Low threw himself a 31st birthday party in Las Vegas with a guest list spanning A-list invitees (Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, and Kanye West were all there) to Goldman Sachs bankers and Middle Eastern bigwigs.
The opulent bash took place in a converted airport hangar and included several carnival rides, performances from artists like Swizz Beatz and Britney Spears, and an impressive fireworks display. Several tabloids reported on the party, but many could not properly identify its publicity-shy host.

Celebrities make appearances in Vegas clubs all the time. Typically, while these parties can be super fun, they're nothing to write home about—the celeb in question sits at their table, sipping champagne, and shouting into the microphone a time or two while everyone else hangs out on the general admission floor. But once in a while, like during Katy Perry's 2022 appearance at Zouk Nightclub, they turn more memorable. At this specific party, Perry (literally) tossed pizza to guests, raining single slices of pepperoni and cheese down on the heads of inebriated partygoers. What a way to end the night!
