Women wear a full-length black dress or black slacks and blouse.

Flats or very solid heels
Jewelry and make up are encouraged.
Perfume is not allowed.

Stage Accents is a company you may use to order a dress, and there are two from which to choose. Some students prefer to cover their shoulders, and that is also an option you will see listed. If ordering from Stage Accents, please do so ASAP to ensure time for delivery as well as any alterations that may be required.

Men wear tuxes or suits and black shoes.

Suits should be black or dark.
White shirt & bow tie.
Tuxedos are required for Chorale and optional for Chorus. You can purchase very good used and new tuxedos at an excellent price from Keezers of Cambridge. A used tux looks great and costs less than a new suit.
