Formal, as an affair (6)

I believe the answer is:

dressy

(Other definitions for dressy that I've seen before include "swish" , "(Of clothes) suitable for a smart occasion" , "Formal or elegant" , "Nattily attired, wearing stylish clothes" , "Smartly clad, wearing stylish clothes" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
