Afternoon Dress

Japanese: アフタヌーンドレス
Afternoon Dress
Daytime formal attire for women, mainly for the afternoon, and for going out. It is worn for social occasions such as luncheons, tea parties, and theater. It is usually a one-piece dress, and deep necklines and shiny accessories are usually avoided. In the past, there were rules about attire depending on the time, place, and purpose, but in modern times, those boundaries have become unclear.
