Shabbat Clothes for a Shidduch Meeting

Question

A girl who needs to meet a boy for a shidduch, is she allowed to wear Shabbat clothes?

Answer

Shalom Rav,

I assume the question pertains to the Nine Days, and the answer is that indeed they are allowed to wear Shabbat clothes.

[Certainly during the days of Bein HaMetzarim until Rosh Chodesh Av, it is permitted].
