The Coterie Retreat 2023 Style Guide: What to wear while in the Cayman Islands
It’s about that time!
Our 2023 Coterie Retreat style guide is ready for your consumption. This year, we’re bringing back some of our regular themes, while introducing new ideas and concepts.
Remember, this is simply a guide to help you plan your fashion for the week. You’re in no way obligated to abide by any of these concepts. What’s most important is that you arrive comfortable while representing your true self at all times.
Now let’s dive into this Style Guide.

Awards Gala: Creative Black Tie - Incorporate Something Blue
Wednesday, December 6th
In Partnership with Pedro St. James
Our most anticipated and formal event of the conference is our Awards Gala. We invite you to arrive in your best Creative Black Tie Attire and encourage you to incorporate something blue. You don’t necessarily have to wear blue but think of ways you can dazzle some blue into your wardrobe, even if that’s through your accessories, makeup, or even hair. We look forward to seeing your creativity. Check our our Pinterest board for inspiration here.
Note: This event will be outdoors in a grassy area.
What is Creative Black Tie?
This category allows for more creativity and options when planning your wardrobe. You won’t have to adhere to strict black tie guidelines. Think patterns, textures, and colors or any creative way to enhance your personal style.
