		 I am with Betty, patterns are not much worn for social occasions in the east, I would say knee length or  longer, soft color silk or the like, no bare arms, stockings and heels.  You have such a lovely figure, something constructed would be charming on you!.  And remember you can always hire a gown if it is not your kind of thing.
