Left to right, top to bottom...

Looking up dress codes, and really having a hard time not reading this illustration as a TG comic.

A line to keep for later

For a guy, the difference between semi-formal and formal is the addition of a cummerbund. For a girl, it's yards of extra material...

Les Misérables

Another few years, another Les Misérables. No singing this time.
