well to be honest, women generally create these events, and the mood and setting, a lot of times, do not match the dress code they want.
im not going to bother wearing a tie to your house party where you serve well drinks, have a stinky mutt running around, or invite your hillbilly cousin that is going to show up in a Tshirt and crocs.
If you don't wear a tie to a cocktail event at the Met Opera then you're a barbarian
edit: actually the truth is that no one would really give a shite. I saw some guys without ties and thought it was an odd choice but that's the extent to which anyone would care

And a suit is never worn without a tie.
Times change people. Society used to wear full suits to football games. These days, a suit with no tie is a common look.

You're talking how it's better to be over dressed and your response was slacks, blazer, and maybe a tie to a cocktail attire party.
That's why the lol

wearing a tie to a cocktail party can be over dressing. That's what I was implying. Depends on the setting and occasion.

yea, thats what im trying to say. If im going to a formal event where i know everyone will dress properly and the mood and setting will be more refined, ill wear a tie.
but if its the middle of the summer in louisiana and someone is having a cocktail party in their big back yard by the pool just for the sake of getting people together and having fun, im prob not wearing a tie with my suit.

suit, pocket square, no tie
should probably wear a tie depending on what the event is though
