Capris can be only allowe on Fridays or Saturdays.In my present company casuals are allowed only on the weekends ...It should be decent and should go at par with the company’s decorum.

Dear Friend, Please prepare a uniform policy to your company in accordance with the acceptable dress code. Afterwards, these kind of problems will not arise. Thanks & Regards M.Krishnakumar

An employee can be at his best when he is allowed to be what he is. Let employee decide what is best and comfortable for him/her.
Dress code restriction are OK for sales type jobs, but for the office jobs let the employee wear the best. Only odd dress like dhoti, sandles, short skirts or shirts with flashy slogans should be discouraged not banned.
GIVE SPACE TO PEOPLE AND SEE THE DIFFERENCE.

Agreed.. wearing neat & decent Capris/Skirts are fine.. unless and untill they do not cause any embarrasment that too only on Fridays (5 days working) / Saturdays (6 days working).

An absolute NO NO for office. You are coming to work & not doing a fashion show in the office. Males get distracted & even gossip(read comment) if any female wears any awkward( read provocatice) dress in office. This also leads to sexual harrassment. All females should make it a point to see themselves in full length mirror before leaving for the office.

formal skirts which are strictly meant for professionals are ok...however capris are somethings not meant to be worn in office..

I think its all depends on the mentality of your co.employees and the social atmosphere of you company. I remember when I was working in a company located at small town my co-employees taunted me for wearing gloves while ridinging my schooty.they consider it as a style...so in my opnion first one should understand the atmosphere then deciede what to wear and what not..

well ladies & gentlemen,
I would suggest that if the company allows the dress code and it has become a culture of the company then you might find everyone wearing the short dresses. But as it has been said that "appraisals" are always around the next corner, one might be trendy yet decent.
But it would be better for all girls to hide there curves.

Dear friends
Such topics always find favour with members.
Basically these are "Voting" kind of topics, so everyone is competent and likes to "vote".
In my opinion, if yours is a "Google" kind of a creative company and where the work involves interacting within a team or group, then you can wear any 'beach wear' kind of dress.
But if you are in a consultancy like McKinsey, or banks like Citi or BankAm or in a star hotel, airlines etc. then perhaps a dress that means-and-looks-businesslike is preferable.
(Employees in traditional Indian companies or Banks etc. know what to wear, and hence do not face this DILEMMA)
But if your CEO is made in the moulds of a maverick like Richard Branson or closer home, Vijay Mallaya; you can wear absolutely anything that one would like to show-off or feel comfortable wearing.
Note : It is assumed that the company has no specified Dress Codes; else this question should not have arisen.
Warm regards.

correct!!!......i think it's up to any organisation if something deals with technical things why accepting this..,must be not allowed to avoid more compensation and keeping the good OH&S of that organisation for example..,mechanical department...but for others this is more formal and professional wearing to give good presentation of the organisation.
