Dresses
cocktail dress
In general, semi-formal dresses are knee-length, maybe the cheap cocktail dress is a good choice for you. Though you can safely wear one that reaches 1 inch above the knee  or one that is tea-length. Think "cocktail dress," but don't wear a dress that's so sexy and flirty that it would be more appropriate for clubbing than for celebrating a friend's daytime wedding.
Shoes and Accessories
Traditionally, semi-formal attire calls for dress heels, but dressy flats or strappy sandals are also okay, as long as they're color-coordinated with the rest of your outfit. Go ahead and wear jewelry, but keep it simple: stud earrings or very simple long ones; a pearl or chain necklace with few embellishments; an elegant bracelet and one or two rings. Your handbag should match your outfit. For daytime weddings, you can also wear a hat, as long as it's not too flashy.
Materials
formal dresses for women
The "semi" in "semi-formal" is not permission to wear denim! This also isn't the time to wear wool, which isn't considered dressy enough (except cashmere). When choosing an outfit, look for taffeta, chiffon, sateen, gossamer, silk, or satin. In the winter, velvet and velour are both appropriate.
Separates
You can definitely wear separates to a semi-formal event, as long as the pieces are dressy. Try a full, long satin skirt with a cashmere top, or a chiffon skirt with a lace camisole. An elegant brocade suit and matching knee-length skirt would be perfect. Pantsuits are also fine, as long as they're ankle-length, stylish and made of materials such as silk or brocade.
