formal is long ball gown, sorry pants and a nice top is inappropriate if invite says formal.

Formal usually means the same as Black Tie, but in some trendier cities like New York or Los Angeles, it could mean a black shirt, no tie with a tux. Women wear cocktail, long dresses or dressy evening separates. so no pants

No pantsDaytime wedding a nice cocktail dressNighttime wedding a bit more on the dress...nothing overboard, just classic...Perhaps a ankle length gray dress, simple, yet elegant...You really want to try to stay classic in whatever you wear - something you can wear again.

No, what! Are you stupid. Formal doesn't mean wear shorts and a shirt. If you don't know the difference, don't go to the wedding.

Pants? An invite to a wedding which clearly says that the wedding is formal. Right.Buy a nice dress. Better than a 'nice top'. It should not be a long "ball gown" type of dress. You don't want to compete with the bride.

of course pants are ok. just pair it with a nice, fancy top and thats very dressy. women def. arent expected to wear dresses anymore. i personally think they look too over the top most of the time. wear black pants with a dressy top and dressy shoes and youll look great!

defiantly not! .... it doesn't have to be a ball gown.. leave that to the bride, but not pants, a nice dress a little longer than cocktail length should be fine

dress slacks, a nice blouse, panty hose or knee highs, and a pair of low heels is acceptable. Dress it up with accessories. Wear makeup and jewlery to really make it shine. A ball gown is not necessary, but I would consider a nice dress if possible instead of slacks. You can pull slacks off if you dress it up with a really frilly blouse.

I think you can as long as your not participating but just to be sure you should ask the bride.
