Have you ever been to an occasion that required your wearing a long gown outside of your prom and/or wedding? If so, what did you wear and wear did you go?
yes. We use to go to a black tie affair every new years eve but I’ve stopped the last two. I’ve also worn formal wear to two art exhibits that previewed before opening date here in L.A.
I use to love it. On July 17th I will be required to wear formal again but it’s been awhile so I’m sorta looking forward to it.

Christmas parties, Christmas mass and Easter (of singing in tne choir), Chinese wedding parties.
In the past, whenever I had the occasion, I would wear formal for I bought a few of them when they were on sales.
I have not been to any formal events other than weddings. They really are not my cup of tea...I prefer cocktail dress.
Eva,
They are not my cup of tea either! However, in 2006 (though my usuall attire was hair in ponytils with bandanna, Kung Fu pants, KF T-shirt and KF Shoes).
I bought a floor length, beautiful strapless gown and attended the Martial Arts Museum Event where my Lovely Teacher (self “adopted” Chinese Mom)was inducted into the Martial Arts Hall of Fame.
I had the most wonderful time!.
The funny thing is several of my cohorts did not recognize me, nor I them for a brief moment! LOL one Well known teacher said “Tammy? Wow, you clean up nice“! LOL
No, those sort of events just don’t go on in my corner of the world.
I do however have a beautiful long dress hanging in the closet—just in case. Actually it’s one of my daughters’ old prom dresses, but it looks sensational on me.

I have attended all types of gala and formal events for a wide variety of occassions and have too many to describ but tend to favor the standard black dress, with out beads on the lower half
My second wedding dress was actually a formal dress. Other than that, I’m not into the formal dresses at all. I prefer cocktail dresses. Really I prefer jeans!
