If I may, can I advise that a certain amount of caution may be required here. A semi dress sporran is about the most useless and needless bit of kilt attire that you could spend your hard earned cash on, it is "neither fish nor fowl".
Your black sporran that you wear will see you through to any event up to very formal events and a semi formal sporran just looks awful in each and every case---- every day, smart day, smart (not formal) events and even worse, at formal events. Better by far and completely versatile is a fur mask sporran, or a nice dress sporran that "looks the business" in the right surroundings. Why spend money on three sporrans when one(or two) will cover all eventualities perfectly?
I quite understand that accumulating a kilt wardrobe takes time, but given that you are and time is what you have, then I personally would advise careful consideration over the necessity of a semi dress sporran.
