Word origin
The word 'soiree' originated from the French language, where it means 'evening'. It was first introduced into English in the late 18th century to describe an evening party or social gathering. The term became popular among the upper classes in Europe and eventually made its way into English-speaking countries as a synonym for a sophisticated evening event.
