[Help] Semi-formal

[Dave the OAP]

American semi formal is trousers/ chinos and a polo shirt ...decent shoes and maybe a casual jacket, not jeans

Or at least that is how it is on cruise ships.

This a new one on me. I have been invited to a party and the dress code is

“semi-formal” “In other words, no tuxedos”

How would you interpret this?

Dress as Hitler

If it is at a ''Football Event'' It means - No jeans, No Trainers, No Shorts and No Replica Shirts

This I'd say, open neck or tie as preferred
