You’re not the only one who gets confused about what to wear on a first date. More than 23.8 million adults in the US have the same concern. In fact, many researchers have tried to conduct studies on what women should wear on a first date, and a study concluded that red helps women attract men.

But we can’t depend solely on research, so let’s go through what looks good on men and women both for a first date, as the first impression matters.

For women

Dresses

It’s no secret that women love a classic, easy-to-put-on dress to get their man’s attention on a dinner date or for some drinks at a bar. Wear a comfortable dress that accentuates your body nicely.

Tip: Show off your neck and not the chest by carefully choosing your dress’ neckline.

Top and Skirt

While most women love dresses, some prefer going a little more casual, so matching separates like a top and a skirt also work great for casual dates. You can opt for a bit more trendy and revealing tops or skirts, for example, skirts with side slits and shirts with open backs with cute necklines for an ideal first date outfit.

Shirt and Leather Pants

You can never go wrong with a simple white t-shirt and some leather pants on a casual date, or if you’re going for coffee on a first date. Avoid coming off as too casual and choose patterns and textures for your shirt or blouse that scream ‘90s minimalism. Top it off with some aesthetic jewelry and glowy makeup.

For men

Formal Outfit

For a dinner date, you can put in a little effort and wear a blazer with dress pants. Keep the colors neutral, and your shoes elevated. Add a leather belt, and you’re good to go.

Tip: Don’t forget to spritz some of that rich cologne.

Polo Shirts and Dress Pants

This combo will work best for casual dates, whether at a bar or a coffee shop. For the first date, however, don’t forget to wear darker colors like navy blue as they are attractive, and you can always tone down the whole look with muted pants and shoes.
