What is the sexiest dress that you expect to see from your date?

Is the type of dress in the first date very important to you?

Do you like it casual or dressed up? It might depend on the place you have date, too.

For a first date, I would want to see my date wearing whatever she's normally comfortable in.

If she's happy in jeans and a tshirt, then that's what she should be wearing.

I don't get why people think they need to "dress to impress" on a first date. Sorry, but that's not how you're going to look most of the time. (Well, usually not, maybe some like it)

I would much rather see someone as they are. Whatever they would normally wear day to day. Because that's the person I'm going to be dating.

Besides that, people are more at ease when they're dressed in the style they enjoy. I've always found that when someone dresses up differently than they're used to... they tend to be more uncomfortable... almost like they feel they're putting on a show for me.
And I would never want that.

Wear what you want. Simple as that.

The only time you should be "dressing up"... is if we're going out somewhere fancy.

Yes, absolutely. Think of all those awful wedding day guest outfits that seemed like such a good idea at the time. I've seen some horrors and definitely worn some...

OT I think similar to Adam, whatever you or your date is comfortable wearing is usually good but a hint to her (or him) may be in order just so one doesnt feel underdressed in jeans and tshirt when you are wearing a blazer and good trousers.... maybe. And definitely let the date know the type of place you're going.

Finally, fancy dress isnt usually an appropriate decision. A clown outfit doesnt really give a good impression unless.. of course... you've both decided on this..... hope this helps...

It REALLY depends what you're doing, but it's always better to start off dressed down that dressed up. You don't want to have to live up to a certain standard after that. All you need to be concerned with is dressing CLEAN and appropriate.

Any clothes are sexy when seen on your bedroom floor

OK seriously, I'd prefer my date wear what she's comfortable in, not try to be what she is not. It's just one less thing on her mind to worry about.

Saying that, there is of course a problem...if she dresses poorly for where we go. I'd hate for her to feel out of place, or to be freezing/sweating b/c she dressed too lightly/too warmly . But, I'd like to think that, as an adult, she has an idea of how to dress for where we are going , so it's probably not an issue.

Now is that a first date or a first meeting they are not the same thing.
For both you should always be neat and tidy but it does depend on what you are doing.
is it dinner or coffee shop, pool or darts, dancing or hanging out all of them make the choice of clothing change.

I dress for where we are going.

If its to dinner it depends on where. I dress for the occassion, weather, etc. Things factor into my decision, but it takes a few seconds to decide. I prefer to be in jeans and relaxed when I meet someone. If they don't like me in jeans, then we won't get along any time soon; I LIVE in my jeans when I am not working or working out.

On a guy, he should be comfortable, and who he is; same rules apply as the ones I have to dress myself before a date.

Need to dress appropiate for the location and timing. Other than that, whatever makes her happy. First date is hardly the time to express my preference in lingerie.

"For a first date, I would want to see my date wearing whatever she's normally comfortable in."

That works for me too, whether she chooses a knee-length dress with heels or pants, sandals and pullover top. Just as long as she is not ragged and dirty.

Something that shows that she did make some sort of an effort in her appearance, especially for a first date. Even something simple like a jeans with a t-shirt can look good, as long as it appears well put-together and clean. I do believe that first dates especially important to keep clothing and the atmosphere as casual as possible.

Neat but casual. First dates should be simple and low key. Nothing fancy or special.

Ya gotta be you! Dress as you would at any other time! Why put on a facade of something you are not each and every day! Be the person you are at all times - then that special someone will fall in love with the person you are - not the person you are pretending to be!

I tend to wear a dress or skirt but that's indicitive of how I normally dress. For work it's more formal. For play, casual. Always comfortable though. Almost always where heels because I love them. That's just who I am. Jeans are good for some activities but living in a warm weather climate, I find skirts and dresses more comfortable.

This seems like a silly thread to me...but here's my 2 cents.

1. know where you are going and the appropriate attire
2. be sure you are showered and properly perfumed...not too much!!
3. make sure your shoes are polished and comfortable
4. wear what is comfortable, clean, and well pressed
5. wall tall, shoulders back, chest out...confident and have FUN!!!

as always, just my opinion...

It's also great if you can wear something that is your favorite:jewelry, item of clothing, shoes, fragrance. Helps boost your self-confidence.

neat and casual gets my vote too.

however...

if i do like him a lot(or if i just didn't get out much lately, a date is perfect excuse), i will splash on a 'casual' short & sexy sun dress and put on a lil bit of make-up, maybe w heels, maybe flip flops.

the plus to that is that it will also make other men turn heads, and while that is attention i do always ignore when on a date, it still does make him pay more attention to me, u know, to make sure some other nosy dude don't whisk me away , and it does give me an opportunity to show him i might have plenty choices, but i choose him...

For a first date and the original 'meet', I want everyday casual. Neat and clean, no wrinkles, clean smelling, freshly laundered, freshly showered. No jeans with rips, tears or holes, no scuffy/scurvy sneakers or flip flops, no wife beaters. Dockers and an oxford or knit polo are perfect.
