Ladies, it’s time to get dressed for that all important First Date! Congratulations to you! You successfully wrote a great dating profile, selected attractive photographs of yourself to share with guys who might be interested in dating you. Good for you! Then you published your dating website profile and paid the membership dues to join the singles site. You successfully navigated the email and text messaging exchange, and the guy asked you out for a date so the two of you could now finally met. Now what will you wear? Some experts advice just wear jeans and a t-shirt so you’re comfortable. Don’t be fooled by that bad advice. You’ll wreck the chemistry and fall short of getting asked out for a second date, wasting all your time and money. Instead, read on to learn how to dress for a great first date to meet the cute guy from the dating site and have a great experience online.
I have a buddy who is old money and old lineage from New England. He is a great guy with a very dry wit and drole sense of humor. He cracks dry witted jokes about how when Princess Grace was alive and the Princess of Monaco that people were always wanting to know if the gala events were ones Tiara or no Tiara? And I am not talking the Rhinestone kind. I’m talking Diamonds ladies. You know, the ones that are a girl’s best friend?
Well, is that the kind of ensemble to wear on a First Date Meeting with single guys you are meeting from online dating who you want to dress to impress?
No! You do not want to severely overdress for the first date occasion least you come across as out of touch with modern dating social mores or desperate.
Now, with all the research I do all the time with the major online dating sites where they interview single guys who say, “I don’t care what she wears on the first date,” and then they tell young women just to show up in t-shirt and blue jeans. Well I never. Influence and persuasion studies demonstrate that in reality we often don’t consciously know what we think and what we are driven by. So while the sites are suggesting to single men and women to wear t-shirt and jeans, they would do better to follow the sartorial advice of “The Dress for Success” man.
Ladies, do wear a dress or skirt ensemble. Accentuate your feminine. Aim for a sexy classy look. A wrap dress which accentuates your feminine assets in a classy manner in silk or a similarly sensual yet not over the top fabric is marvelous. A sweetheart neckline is marvelous. Both of these looks accentuate your assets without over-emphasizing them.
By doing so, you will also reinforce your greatest feeling of self-esteem and self-confidence. Leverage points you always want to bring to bear in moments and opportunities of personal influence and persuasion.
When you dress in a feminine manner without going overboard with too big a dress or too big an accessory, you create chemistry with the guy. When he feels attracted to you in person then he is bound to ask you out for a second date. And getting to the second date is always the goal of the first date.
