Wedding season is officially upon us, and with it come many time-honored traditions. The bouquet toss. The cake cutting. But far more challenging tradition is to figure out what to wear in compliance with complicated wedding dress codes.

婚禮季正式到來(lái)，隨之而來(lái)的還有許多歷史悠久的傳統(tǒng)，拋花球，切蛋糕。但是更具挑戰(zhàn)性的傳統(tǒng)是，要弄清穿什么才符合復(fù)雜的結(jié)婚禮服準(zhǔn)則。

But most of the time, wedding dress codes fall into one of the following categories.

不過(guò)，很多時(shí)候，結(jié)婚禮服準(zhǔn)則可分為以下幾種。

1. WHITE TIE

1、白領(lǐng)結(jié)

If you receive a white tie wedding invite, for men, prepare to rent a pair of tails with the accompanying white vest and bow tie; for women, opt for your most elegant floor-length gown, expensive jewelry, and dramatic hair and makeup.

如果你收到一封白領(lǐng)結(jié)婚禮邀請(qǐng)函，則男士可以租一套燕尾服，搭配白背心和蝶型領(lǐng)結(jié);女士可選擇最優(yōu)雅的及地禮服和昂貴珠寶，并搭配引人注目的發(fā)型和妝容。

2. BLACK TIE

2、黑領(lǐng)結(jié)

Black tie is a tad less dressed-up than white tie, but only a tad. So gentlemen, go rent your tuxedos. And ladies, wear an evening gown or your fanciest cocktail dress.

黑領(lǐng)結(jié)可以比白領(lǐng)結(jié)少打扮一些，但只是少許。所以，先生們，去租一套無(wú)尾禮服。女士們，穿一件晚禮服或最時(shí)髦的酒會(huì)禮服。

3. BLACK TIE OPTIONAL

3、可選擇的黑領(lǐng)結(jié)

Black tie optional is a contemporary dress code. For men, black tie optional means it's not wrong to wear a tux, if you like—but if you'd be happier in a dark suit and tie, you won't be underdressed. Ditto for women, who can wear just about anything they'd sport to a black tie affair, within reason. An embellished cocktail dress is fine.

可選擇的黑領(lǐng)結(jié)是當(dāng)代的一種禮服準(zhǔn)則。對(duì)男士來(lái)說(shuō)，可選擇的黑領(lǐng)結(jié)意味著，如果你喜歡的話，穿無(wú)尾晚禮服不會(huì)有錯(cuò)，但是，如果你更愿意選擇深色西服和領(lǐng)帶，這樣也不會(huì)太隨便。同樣地，女士可以穿適合黑領(lǐng)結(jié)的幾乎所有服飾，而這合情合理。一件綴以裝飾的酒會(huì)禮服就很好。

4. COCKTAIL ATTIRE

雞尾酒會(huì)禮服

Guys can follow this dress code in a suit and tie; more fashion-forward gentlemen might be able to switch out the jacket for a formal vest. Ladies, any party dress with a hemline from mid-calf to mid-thigh will work for you.

男士們可以遵循西服加領(lǐng)帶的著裝準(zhǔn)則;更前衛(wèi)的先生們也可以穿正裝背心，外搭禮服夾克。女士們，從下擺到小腿肚的禮服裙以及下擺到大腿中部的禮服裙都適合你們。
