It usually means a kind of cocktail dress or evening wear that is not a formal ball gown.

It means an after 5 dress/cocktail dress. Avoid something that you would have worn to the prom, that is too dressy/formal.

Semi formal attire would be a cocktail dress or evening pantsuit. Formal attire requires a long evening gown.

Think, dressy night out to dinner. Cocktail dress, or dress slacks and dressy blouse.

Not formal, but dressy. Think "Sunday best".

re: military-wifey's post...
I would think that "semi formal" means that slacks are out!
(Maybe I'm showing my age!)

i think a cocktail dress, short or mid length would be fine.
