In today article, I’m going to enlighten you on what you should NOT wear on your first date.
What you wear on a date is very important. Date attire requires careful thought and consideration.
Dates are always fun. You have a great time together (well most of the times!) and get to know each other a little bit more on a date.
Mind you, we don’t mean date night attire for an evening out with your longtime love or significant other. Rather, date outfits for a get-together with a new suitor need to be deliberately planned.
As a young and beautiful lady, You don’t need to wear anything too sexy, too thrown together, or too calculated.
You should be comfortable and cute, without being too revealing. You should also look like yourself. That said, you don’t want to send unintentional or mixed messages, either.
Obviously, what you wear actually communicates a variety of things to your date. Selecting your ensemble is of critical importance.
Here are all the things that you should never wear on a date — though, of course, it’s ultimately up to you.
But when, it is a first date, stakes are usually higher. You are a bit nervous and totally clueless about what to wear. In today’s post, I will tell you what NOT to wear on your date!

1. Workout Clothes
It would be ideal if you are up for the date instead of going to the date right after the gym. In other words, you should not go on a date with your gym attire
2. Never-Ending Heels
If you must wear heels then choose gladiator sandals or wedges instead of stilettos. Wearing 5 inch towering heels on your first date is definitely, not recommended.
3. Too Much Makeup
Wear makeup that looks more natural with a light flush of colour on your lips. Smokey eyes with bold red lips is definitely OTT for a day out.
4. New Shoes
You do not want to limp on your date do you? You need to walk a day or two in your new shoes. They might irritate on your feet or give you blisters.
5. Something Uncomfortable
Give your clothes a test run before choosing them. Wear something you are comfortable in. Adjusting your hair, your clothes again and again will take the focus away from the conversation you are having
6. Your Sweatshirt
You may be the girl, who does not go by any stereotypes and wears whatever she is comfortable in but it should look like you put in a little effort and you were looking forward to this date.
7. Sheer Tops and Fishnet Stockings
So choose the tops carefully if you want to wear something sheer only and fishnet stockings are definitely not meant for first dates although they are damn sexy. Sheer can look classy to crass in seconds if it not worn well. You can easily go wrong with the sheer fabric.
8. Too Short Skirts
Micro minis are not an ideal outfit choice for a first date. Wear skirts in which you are comfortable and show just the right amount of those toned calves.
9. T-Shirts with Slogans
Avoid wearing t-shirts with bold messages printed on it – for example – “Bossy is Beautiful,” “Human Beings Scare Me,” which will kind of jeopardize the first date
10. Too Much Jewellery
Avoid wearing a lot of heavy jewellery on your first date, wear trendy and dainty jewellery which would look pretty impressive.
11. Reconsider wearing thigh-high boots on a date
Thigh-high boots are a total no-no when you’re choosing what to wear on a date. Josie May, a love and dating coach, pointed out to The List that these sexy stompers “may look good when you go out dancing with your girlfriends. But unfortunately, on a date, they give off a hooker vibe.”
12. Dirty attire is a big no-no when picking out what to wear on a date
There’s one thing that’s totally unacceptable for people to wear on a date: clothes with stains. While Vanity Capital’s Kaitlin Kapur is “not a fan of telling people what they can or cannot wear because style is such a fun way for an individual to express themselves,”
Kapur told The List, “One thing you should always avoid is clothing that is dirty and or wrinkled.” Don’t yank clothes out of your hamper. Make sure your date clothes are clean, pressed, and fresh. Dirty and stained clothes can make you appear messy or unkempt in life and love.
