Well not quite! What is this semi-formal thing? Never heard of it. White tie is height of formality and black tie is formal. It is the degree of formality that one needs to be aware of to dress appropriately. Most of us have no need for white tie attire , for very good reasons, but the more normal and more usual black tie events can range from a high society event where bells and whistles might be required(or NOT!) to a private dinner where just dress attire is required. However, please let us not go down this semi-formal route, it is a misleading dead end.
