Smart Casual

A nonsensical dress code that people slap onto events, parties, and workplaces.

Completely down to interpretation; this always causes confusion and often spectacular results.

A mixture between smart and casual - should not be taken literally.

Jim- "Hey, is Andy wearing jogging bottoms with that blazer?!"
Bob- "Yeah it's Smart Casual"
