Is this appropriate to wear?

I’m going to an Asperger’s dance, in a bad part of town. I’m going with a really big guy friend of mine. We’re taking an Uber there and back, together. It’s not safe to dress too fancy, but is it ok to dress smart casual? I’m thinking of a green checked dress.

Wait wait wait... what?
Since when were "our kind" doing social events? Isn't that kinda contradictory?
I can't think of anything more awkward than a bunch of fellow autists trying to dance... together... in the same room.

Hahaha I see what you mean

yes, smart casual and how safe is the venue? Is there a doorman/bouncer/guard?

[Asker]

Not sure, but my friend looks tougher than the toughest bouncer.

Yes.
