What do I wear to meet my new boyfs parnents ??

Question

Help, im stumped. I dont know what to wear to make a positive impression. What do you think?

Answer 1

My mother always told me that the first impression is the lasting impression. Make sure you are well presented when you go meet his parents. Don't wear anything revealing, no cleavage showing, please no skin tight jeans. Make sure everything is in place. I'm not saying go looking old either. You can look conservative and classy. Good Luck and I hope that things work for the two of you.

Answer 2

Mainly it depends on how his oparents are so ask, the dad's usually like the girls, its the mother you have to please she influences both men dad and son. The way his parents feel about you is very important. The fact that he has decided to introduce you is proof alone that he sees your relationship with a future. So back to the question, is there going to be dinner?...if so where?...If its dinner at home and the mother is youthful and outgoing then jeans (w/no holes, no panty lines, and no lowrides) with a top thats modest if you want to wear your fave lowcut then i suggest it have sleeves and you wear another shirt under it such as a high cut tank or spagetti straps...pleas, please wear a half bra....Bra straps are BAD. But it you are having dinner out or the mother is more conservative wear slacks, or gouchos, both are very much in style. remember both ways you should wear sleeves that are either elbow 3/4 or full length. When it comes to shoes...NEVER wear the highest heels you own. Some..not all but some mothers find that slutty don't know why but thats life. So a cute pair of flats, or low heel boots or sandals ought to do it....I know you'll look great the outfit is only 5% of what you need a great personality is the other95%...GOOD luck and I hope there is a future for you guys soon. ^_^

Answer 3

I would say, be conservative, to make a good impression. Too many girls these days, come across as "too easy", which is the last thing a possible future mother in law wants to see. Dressing "up", is the best advice I can give, remember, you want to show your best qualities, in case this relationship goes further. Even if it doesn't, it is a dress rehearsal for any other future parents you are going to meet. Be clean, dress for the occasion, with sylish, yet modest dress, mind your manners, be graceful, shake hands, go by the hostess' cues. I always say, you can't be too overdressed for anything. You can be underdressed, and that makes a poor impression. I would err on the side of caution. You don't mention the occasion. If it is a pool party, don't wear the string bikini that your boyfriend loves; get a one piece and wear a cover up of terry cloth. No boobs hanging; future father in laws don't need mouths hanging open and drooling. They are judging you as well. Walk tall, show that you have confidence in who you are, not by what you are wearing, but how you carry it off. You are who you are, whether in designer pants or ordinary clothes. If you boyfriend cares enough about you to take you home to meet his folks, he cares about you, and dress as if you are going to a job interview (since you are, so to speak). This may become a long-term committment, so do your best, and good luck to you. You, too, are judging them, as well.

Answer 4

A nice non revealing shirt and blouse or skirt with a casual look to not look like your trying to impress the parents but this is what you normally wear.

Always remember first impression will be what you are judged on so I say at least look like a decent young lady or woman depending your age and not look revealing or dress like your trying to pick someone up .

Again, dress casual with maybe a shirt and a skirt that should come to the knees or some pants that aren't too tight or a casual dress.

Good Luck.

Answer 5

That depends on where you are meeting them. If you are meeting at a restaurant then you should dress according to place you are going to. If you are going to their house then I would wear a nice conservative skirt and a nice blouse to go with it. Wear stockings or pantyhose with your skirt or dress. Avoid a lot of cleavage or a bra that is visible through your shirt. Don't over do your perfume or makeup. Style your hair to suit your clothes and place. Wear shoes that are in good shape and are not scuffed. Make sure you don't have bad breath.

Answer 6

when i first met my fiancees parents i wore jogging pants and a black top thats what i would normally wear if it was a weekday and they accepted me not coz of what i wore but for who i am. i admit i didnt make the best impression by wearing jogging pants but i saw no need to dress up to try and convince them i was something i wasnt.

wear what you feel comfortable in jeans and a top is suitable i think casual yet can be smart

Answer 7

Something modest - like a nice blouse (not too low-cut)
and slacks. I would accept that if my son brought home
a new gal for me to meet.

Answer 8

Answer 9
