Girls Dress Code for Cotillion

                                    The dress code applies to all of the Cotillion events.

 

Are the girls required to wear a dress? Yes, the girls are required to wear a traditional long or modest length dress in modest appearance and length. Dress straps must be at least 1 inch thick or cover the brazier strap (lasagna thickness not spaghetti). Pant leggings under the party dress is NOT ACCEPTABLE!

 

​Do the girls wear stockings? We leave this decision to the parent / girl, it is not a requirement to wear nylons or tights.

​

Do the girls wear white gloves? White gloves are not mandatory. If wearing gloves the color or type is your decision. 

 

What about dress shoes for the young ladies? The heel of the shoe should be as low as possible (FYI - a ballet flat is perfect) and must ALWAYS have a back strap. Open-toe shoes with a back strap are acceptable, but not recommended. Sandals of any type are discouraged. A sandal with a strap between the toe is not in compliance with the dress code. Tennis shoes are also NOT allowed.

Is a necktie required? Yes, always  a standard necktie will be required and is part of the boys dress attire.

Do I have to keep my suit jacket on all night? Part of good grooming is to remain with the suit jacket on until he at least reaches the car door. Please have your child remained "dressed" with the necktie up towards the collar and the shirt tail is always tucked in until exiting to the outside of the building.
