Events such as a wedding, a job interview or a business meeting require people to dress formally.
I recently went to a wedding. I wore a navy blue suit and a tie.
a)
I think the dialogue is about buying formal clothing to wear for a special occasion.
I want you to help me choose something to wear. – I was hoping you could give me a hand picking an outfit.
What do people have to wear? – What’s the dress code?
It makes your eyes stand out. – It brings out your eyes.
These go really well with the dress. – They match the dress perfectly.
A: You look fantastic in that!
B: Really? I’ve had this dress for years.
A: That colour really suits you!
B: Thanks. I wasn’t sure if red was my colour.
A: You look gorgeous today!
B: Thanks! You look great as well!
A: That brings out the colour of your eyes!
B: Do you think so? I’ll wear it more often, then!
A: I love your skirt! Is it new?
B: Yes, it’s quite new. I bought it last month.
A: What’s the special occasion we’re shopping for?
B: We’ve got a school ball this Friday. I was hoping you could help me choose an outfit.
A: Of course! What’s the dress code?
B: It’s strictly formal. I’ll need something elegant.
A: How about a nice ballgown and high-heels?
B: Yes, good idea. What about this one?
A: That’s fantastic. Green really suits you. It brings out your eyes.
B: Yes, I love green, too, but it’s a bit short.
A: You’re right. How about this one, then? It’s similar, but it’s a bit longer.
B: Oh, that’s lovely! I’ll go and try it on. … What do you think?
A: Wow! You look gorgeous!
B: Thanks! I’ll get it.
A: Don’t forget the shoes! These ones match the dress perfectly.
B: Oh, yes! They’re perfect. I’m all set for the ball now!
