The Kids In Crisis Yacht Rock Gala Attire Guide
The Kids In Crisis Yacht Rock Party (pronounced (YOT / ROK / PAHR-tee) “Rock the Dock” is only weeks away. Time to start thinking about what you will be wearing. An essential part of the fun is a relaxed and retro-inspired dress code. Yacht rock is associated with the smooth music of the late 1970s and early 1980s, so the attire often reflects that era. Join Gala Co-chairs Amber Boissonneault and Sean McMurtry to learn more about the official Kids In Crisis Yacht Rock Gala Attire Guide and dress instructions for the evening!
Nautical Vibes: Many people incorporate nautical elements into their attire since it’s a “yacht” party. This can include sailor stripes, anchor motifs, or even captain’s hats.
Casual Yet Stylish: Yacht rock fashion is about looking casual and comfortable while maintaining a certain level of style. Think about wearing light and breezy fabrics perfect for a day on the water.
Pastel Colors: Pastel colors like light blue, pink, mint green, and cream are often associated with yacht rock fashion. These colors give a relaxed and summery feel to your outfit.
Polo Shirts: Men can opt for polo shirts or casual button-down shirts with the collar popped, a common style in the yacht rock era.
Linen and Seersucker: These lightweight clothing items, like shorts, pants, and blazers, are great choices for both men and women to align with the Kids In Crisis Yacht Rock Gala Attire.
Wide-Leg Pants: Wide-leg pants or trousers, especially for men, were popular during the yacht rock era and can add a retro touch to your outfit.
Boat Shoes: A classic choice for footwear at a yacht rock party, boat shoes or deck shoes are comfortable and perfectly fit the nautical theme of the Kids In Crisis Yacht Rock Gala Attire.
Sunglasses: Don’t forget to accessorize with stylish sunglasses. Aviator-style sunglasses were a hit in the 1980s.
Sun Hats: A wide-brimmed sun hat can add an extra flair to your yacht rock look and provide some shade.
Flowy Dresses: Flowy sundresses or maxi dresses in light colors and prints are a great choice for women. Don’t forget your oversized sunglasses and perhaps a floppy sun hat.
