My husband I will visit Italy this coming December to see some operas. One of them is a Premiere in Milan and I was asked to wear a full length dress for the occasion. But no mention of man's dress code. Should he wear a Tuxedo, which he does not have? In that case what is a passable alternative?

That's a very formal venue and night. I'd have him wear a tux if he will. (You know how guys are!) If he won't do it, the best nicest formal suit he has with a crisp white shirt and elegant tie. I don't think you'd be turned away for that, but I bet there are going to be a lot of tuxes there!

According to traditional etiquette, yes, If you wear a floor length dress he shoud wear a tuxedo. But a black suit and a dark solid color tie will do.If he is adventurous, he can try a black velvet jacket and realy dark grey trousers. I saw that combination last night on TV and it looks great with a black silk tie!
Italy...Opera....fancy dress... you lucky girl!

Check out this website. If all else fails, check with whomever told YOU to wear a full length dress regarding the appropriate attire for men.

Yes, formal attire is required which requires a tuxedo for your husband. Enjoy the Opera. God bless****
