What Is Festive Attire? #TMYK
Festive attire, also known as holiday attire, is a variation of cocktail attire with holiday flair. This dress code is especially popular during winter holidays like Christmas and New Year’s Eve.
Festive attire is unique among other dress codes in that it heavily emphasizes the use of specific colors, patterns, and textiles to tap into the holiday vibe: Sequins, velvet, cashmere, jewel tones, tartan, corduroy, tweed, reds, greens, golds, and lots of sparkles and glitter all fit the requirements of this fun dress code. Festive attire isn’t just for the holidays: This dress code can also signal cocktail attire with creative flair.
It takes a village to keep our TrainTastic operations running smoothly! Our museum is powered by a small admission fee, donations and volunteers. We appreciate and welcome all the support we can get on board!
