In the west, especially in the United States, Britain and other countries, in the formal diplomatic etiquette activities, there are relatively strict dress habits, the host and guests need to dress, such as attending the White House banquet, to wear a formal dress or a tuxedo.

Western men's dress

There are three Western men's dresses.

1. Formal dress or morning

Full dress

。

This is a ceremonial ceremony to be held in the open air during the day, or a dress that is solemnly greeting guests. The coat is a black tail coat, a vest and a black silk top hat.

The so-called swallow tail refers to the long coat is cut into a swallow tail.

Regular dress requires white shirts, grey or black striped trousers, hard down lapel, gray tie and black leather shoes.

For general ceremonies, such as weddings, the ceremonies are fitted with grey waistcoat and gray top hat.

Medals or ribbons are generally not worn, but medals can be worn on the left chest during the military or truce memorial day.

Two, tuxedo, also known as tuxedo or tuxedo.

The upper is black, the front is waist trim, the rear swing is longer, and the tail is shaped like a swallow.

The tuxedo is equipped with white waistcoat, white shirt, white collar knot, two pairs of silk ribbon pants, silk hat, striped leather belt, all kinds of medals and medals.

This dress is only suitable for a very formal occasion. For example, when the president of the United States visits Britain, the guest of honour will wear it when the queen holds a formal welcome dinner.

Ceremonial dress is sometimes used for daytime indoor ceremonies, such as sending a letter to the queen of England, and diplomatic envoys need this dress.

Three, a small dress is also a dress or dinner dress.

It is used for informal activities at night, such as banquets, parties, concerts, watching musical dramas and so on.

The top coat is basically the same as the ordinary suit, but the left and right two buttons are black satin, vest, white shirt, soft collar and no pulp.

In summer, the tops are mostly white, that is, white.

Evening dress

。

Regardless of the white or black coat, the trousers are all black, and the left and right trouser tubes are decorated with black ribbons, black tie and black leather shoes.

Western ladies dress

Western women's dresses, like men's gowns, are also divided into three categories: 1, morning gowns and dresses.

It is a coat and skirt with the same material and color.

With longer sleeves, less skin exposure.

They can wear hats and gloves, and can also carry small handbags.

2, small tuxedo.

A shoulder type, monochrome dress that extends to the back of the foot and does not drag the floor.

3, formal dress.

A monochromatic dress with a bare chest, back style, or mop the floor.

The above ladies' three gowns are used on the same occasions as the three gowns corresponding to men.

Although the western dress is very solemn, some people do not care much about it, although some of the guests do not notice the owner's request for clothing on the invitation.

In September 1959, when Soviet leader Khrushchev visited the United States, he did not wear the tuxedo required by the US while attending the formal banquet of the US, but wore a plain dark suit and a gray tie.

The ambassador of the Soviet Union gave a dinner of thanks for Khrushchev's visit to the United States. President Eisenhower had to wear a formal dress instead of a dress, while Khrushchev was still dressed in an ordinary suit.

This embarrassed Eisenhower.

In addition, the dress consciousness has gradually weakened in the West. This is because there are occasions when a formal dress or a formal dress should be worn. There is no uniform and authoritative standard. It is often determined by the wishes of the host.

For example, in 1962, the white house owner Kennedy had formally ordered the White House dinner to be changed into a dress. After Nixon entered the White House, he returned to his ceremonial dress with the name of the international trend.

After that, the presidents of the United States were all dressed up in ceremonial dress except Carter for wearing small dresses, including President Clinton.

Chinese tunic suit

After the revolution of 1911, the dress pattern was prescribed in China, but it has not been popularized.

So what is the right thing to wear for westerners dressed in western style dress, such as our country, if they do not want to wear western dress? The answer is: national costume.

According to the prevailing international protocol, the functions of national costume and Western dress are the same, and can be used in all ceremonial occasions. Therefore, Asia and Africa have many national costumes, including Chinese tunic suits.

And so on, can be regarded as a dress for men and women diplomats.

Even when visiting western countries, our leaders do not wear Western dresses on the most solemn occasions. They used to wear Chinese tunic suits in previous years. In recent years, many of them wore dark suits.

Our diplomatic envoys are now dressed in dark suits.

When our ambassadors submitted their credentials to the heads of state, most of them wore dark suits or Chinese tunic suits.

However, small dress, dinner dress, has been popular among Chinese diplomats in recent years, and the effect is good.
