What is appropriate attire for a woman attending her husband's E6 promotion ceremony?

My husband's promotion ceremony is Monday and I don't know if I should be casual or dress kind of business casual or what. All of his promotions are usually in Iraq, so this is new to me. Any suggestions?





More Info:


Monday @ 0900


Weather will be a high of 83

A subdued dress or skirt/slacks ensemble would be suitable. You can go sleeveless, but bring a light jacket in case you do want to cover your arms. It's a ceremony, so neither casual nor formal would be appropriate. It probably won't hit 83 degrees by 9AM.





Congrats on his promotion AND on having him home!!!!What is appropriate attire for a woman attending her husband's E6 promotion ceremony?
Wow high of 83, try a skirt that isn;t too short, you may get away with not wearing nylons, I never wear them to church, so nice shaved legs, and high heels, and maybe a nice top that is sleeveless (suntan already put on, but from the promotions I have been to they either provide a tent for the family members, or not, so be prepared for a tent or no tent) and a jacket that goes over it, but can be removed of course because of the hot whether. (and the soldiers generally stand in the sun and get sunstroke) while your hubby is promoted. But congradulations and you may wantt o take some sunglasses but remove them when the ceremony is taking place, thats up to you. I would so I wouldn;t appear so anti-social.
It depends on the uniform of the event. If the promotion ceremony is in formal dress (depending on branch of service), you'd want to be in an evening gown. Since you're saying Monday at 0900? I'd guess it's more likely going to be in duty wear.





Even so, it never hurts to look nice - I'd say to dress business casual. It's always easier to be the only one in a dress or suit jacket surrounded by people in jeans (or ACU's) than it is to be the only wearing jeans while surrounded by people in suits.
Your ';Sunday best,'; ie dress or business casual blouse/skirt/pantssuit.





Less skin, more coverage.


No tatoos showing, no cleavage.


No date clothes, no open-toed shoes.


Keep the dangly earrings small and the jewelry moderate and not excessive.


Your look should complement and not distract from your husband's look.
Dress casual. Given the high temperatures and assuming the ceremony is outside, casual, yet proper dress is acceptable!
a nice dress or pants and a nice top...you will see people wear a bunch of different kinds of clothes to these kinds of events...
Just nice not over the top. Something you would wear to a nice resturant.

Personally I would suggest a dress, business-like.
A catsuit with lots of cleavage
