Choose outfits that are elegant and suitable for a warm, coastal setting, incorporating light fabrics and pastels. Resort Formal mixes elegance with the relaxed, airy atmosphere of the beach, so aim towards something that is both stylish and fitting for a seaside location. This dress code is a bit more relaxed than traditional formal attire but still displays a sense of sophistication and polish.

​

For women, opt for solid, lighter colors (avoiding black, cream, and white) and breathable fabrics. To up the elegance factor, consider sumptuous fabrics like lace and tulle, both of which are light and airy but have an upscale vibe.

​

For men, wear either a suit or a long-sleeved shirt and tie with a jacket and slacks. Opt for solid colors, like beige and light blue, avoiding black, cream, and white, if possible. Additionally, be sure to select a look with a breathable fabric such as linen, khaki, or seersucker.
