Most importantly, your attire for a first date should be appropriate for where you are going on the date. Guys, you wouldn't want to wear flipflops to a nice restaurant and ladies, you wouldn't want to be in heels to go on a hike (by the way, a hike would not be my first choice for a first date, but I did go on a hike for a third date, once).
Second, you want to go fairly neutral and middle of the road. What I mean by that is, while there may be some unusual, attention-grabbing items in your wardrobe or jewelry collection, don't make a first impression with those items.
Next, put in effort...a little more effort than on a typical day. No one want to feel like you didn't care enough about the date to present yourself well.
Ladies, this one is really only aimed at you...I think most girls would agree (as would Millionaire Matchmaker, Patti Stanger), that there are some fashion trends that we love and understand, that men will never really get or appreciate. So, if your date is with a guy, dress for the guy, not for girls. Men are visual, so it doesn't take too much wisdom to realize that you should play up your best features--in a tasteful way!
Takeaway lesson: When it comes to a first date, put in effort, keep your attire appropriate and middle-of-the-road.
