Which outfit is the most romantic?

I am considering three looks for a date this weekend. He is making
reservations for a dinner and dance cruise -- there is a cruise line on
the river in my area. The ship leaves the dock at 6:00 PM, dancing
starts at 8:00 PM. While the boat docks again at 9:00 PM, dancing can
continue until midnight.

While the daytime is supposed to be fairly warm (but not hot), there
will likely be a slight chill in the air later on during the date.

All pieces in the photographs are exactly what I own or nearly
identical. Additionally, I am height and weight proportional, 5'4", and
my hair is brownish blonde, about halfway down my back.

Which of the three outfits do you feel is the most romantic-looking?

Outfit #1: Red sleeveless dress with pleated skirt, which comes to just
above my knees; sheer neutral nylons; and red ankle strap heels (3
1/2"). I will bring a lightweight black cardigan for later on.

Outfit #2: Same dress and cardigan as outfit #1, but with sheer black
polka dot nylons, to combine with the pleated skirt for a playful vibe,
and basic black patent leather heels (4").

Outfit #3: Black floral print short sleeve dress, which comes to
several inches above my knees; sheer black nylons; and basic black
patent leather heels (4").

I like the first outfit best but only if the shoes are comfortable for a night of being on your feet. The evening is sure to be chilly ( and probably windy) on the water so be sure to have a topper along, but nothing that you can’t afford to lose if you forget it on board or it blows overboard. You will probably want to wear it unless you are warm from lots of very energetic dancing.

I also like 1 best Red dresses were made for dancing.

1 for me too. The black tights look a little heavy for the dress.

#1 for sure. Red dress and shoes most romantic and sheer tights will show off your legs best. Also the red shoes look more comfy than the black pumps in the pics.

Another vote for #1. Have a wonderful night!

Number 1! A red dress that twirls is always romantic.

I think the red shoes in #1 are best for dancing. They aren't too high and the strap will help keep them on your feet. The dress is cute and fun for a date.

I like the first one the best. The third one is probably the closest to my idea of romantic, yet I still like the first one best. It has drama while still feeling elegant.

I'm late with this post, I know, but I chose outfit #1. This was my own first choie, as well, Personally, I liked matching the red heels with the red dress, and with the ankle strap. I felt romantic and sexy with those heels and that dress together. Black and red together is also a romantic combination, though I and all of you thought alike on this one.

I did not want to really wear black nylons with red shoes; I do have a pair of black ankle strap heels, but with black on black being less of a contrast it partly defeats the purpose of having the ankle strap.

My date said I looked stunning and was dressed to kill. We danced a little, but we also spent some time sitting and talking, and even standing at the railing and talking. We had a wonderful time.
