Pastel inner shirt in a suit... doesn't really do well for a real formal event, unless you are a gay host of the event.

Gay host?

My gay pal copies from a magazine called garage and anothe magazine called manual. Both are local releases i think. Or maybe he is just looking at the men featured.

Nakalagay kasi sa invitation: Formal attire in pastel colors.

Basing from my experience, even if "formal attire" is indicated on the invitation, some guests would arrive in casual wear. Actually depende din yan on how you wear your clothes. On some formal occasions I would usually wear a short sleeved shirt covered by a formal jacket (blazer), a good pair of jeans or chinos (no jologs designs please), loafers, or brogues, and no neck tie. I get along just fine.

Saan ba gagawin yan? alam mo naman sa atin loosely used ang term na formal, just make sure na naka dress pants ka and not an ordinary slacks, sabi nga when in doubt dress up.
