The formality of a social event is directly proportional to the amount of clothing men are expected to wear and inversely proportional to the amount of clothing women are expected to wear
Beach parties and orgies are the obvious exceptions
Well, I'm upper, upper-class, high-society
God's gift to ballroom notoriety
And I always fill my ballroom, the event is never small
The social pages say I've got the biggest balls of all

For "high society" rich people events, yes. For your grandmother's funeral, no.

Yeah, most men show up almost naked, as your grandmother requested.

The ones who don't, don't get in. Make sure to remind your Dad that he pays double next time.

Dad says he won't go to grandma's second funeral. One is enough for him.

I see you haven't attended very many black-tie orgies. How...quaint.
