Amidst the thrills in this age of Evite, email, text and Facebook invitations is receiving a printed invitation in the mail. I’m sure that the calligraphy on the front, the elegant or creative design, and, no doubt, the special feeling one being gets invited to a swanky affair -one worthy of a printed invitation. Cowboy Casual, BlackTie Fun, Creative Casual and Swanky Chic are a few that come to mind. What to wear, the dress code. Certainly, there remains, however, one perplexing line item on many invitations. Notice. The actual question is. Harsh? So, hear me out. Date, time and location of the event, it seems they enjoy gettingcreative when it comes providing with cues about what to wear, while party hosts are crystalclear about the purpose.
Emily Post Institute. I spoke with Daniel Post Senning, ‘great’ grandson of Emily Post and a co author of Emily Post’s Etiquette,18th Edition and Emily Post’s Etiquette Advantage in Business.
