Can you help me get on track by sharing what you mean by its never a faux pas to show up overdressed? That’s the part that just seems quite surprising to me in my experience. I would say it’s just as easy to show up over as under dressed in an awkward way, rather than something that can never happen.

I never said it wasn't possible to show up overdressed. You just said that.

I simply stated what I had been told that if you're going to make a fashion faux pas it is better to be overdressed than under. What is confusing?

Ah ok, I had somehow misread your comment as saying it is never a faux pas to show up over dressed. Thanks for the clarification, that makes way more sense!
