Special occasions include a wide variety of events.  Each event requires a different form of clothing and style.  Care should be taken in order to assure you are wearing the correct attire to each event.  Attention should be paid to your clothing and your shoes.

Funerals:

Yes, this is considered a special occasion.  You are saying goodbye to someone who meant something to you in one way or another.  It is customary to wear black to a funeral.  Both your dress or suit and shoes should be black.  This is not the occasion to care about how your body looks in your clothes.  Your clothing should be conservative so that it does not seem like you are trying to take attention away from the purpose of the occasion.

Prom:

Prom is one of the most memorable special occasions in a young man or woman’s life.  What he or she wears can play a critical role in how they remember the event.  A girls dress is just as important as her hair, make-up and her shoes.  When picking out a gown, considering your body style is important.  You will want a dress that accentuates the attributes that you think is your best.  For instance, a red gown can bring out your bright green eyes.

Shopping for a tuxedo is much easier than shopping for a gown.  Tuxedos do not vary in style the way gowns do, so the main concern with tuxedos is the fit of the clothing.  Grab some matching dress shoes and you are ready for prom.

Weddings:

The bride has the hardest job when it comes to the special occasion.  The wedding dress is one of the most important things for the bride.  She will spend weeks looking for the perfect dress, while the guests will stop at a local department store to pick out their outfit for the occasion.  Depending on the wedding, the dress code can be anything from jeans to suits.

Regardless of what special occasion you are attending, it is imperative that you dress properly.  Failing to dress properly can result in damage to your self confidence and challenge the respect that others have for your character.
