What to Wear on a First Date: Your Style Guide for Every Occasion

Key points

• Choosing what to wear on a first date can help make a good impression, though no outfit guarantees a second date. The guide's central advice is to dress for the occasion, wear clothes that fit well and choose something comfortable.
• For a nice dinner, tailored trousers or chinos with a button-down shirt suit most settings. Casual options include jeans with a plain T-shirt for drinks, or lightweight layers for movies and coffee.
• Avoid overly casual or gym clothes, and keep fragrance light.
