CarmelTreat probably isn't posting anymore as this is an old thread. However, for those who may be reading and considering such issues there are really two questions here. The first is will it be appropriate for her to wear pants to a formal rush. The second is what is business attire.
Word to the wise is to ALWAYS err on the side of caution. But that may just be me as I keep it more conservative and traditional if I am not sure. You can't go wrong that way. That's with anything that you do when you are not calling the shots yet seeking acceptance (e.g., job interview). Wearing pants is not necessarily wrong but could be a misstep. Why risk it?
Of course, if you don't have anything but your pants suit, wear your pants suit and shine on.
Re business attire, it really is true that everyone woman should know. Just remember this: there is a difference between business and business casual so consider, for the particular field (say if going to an interview) what will be business as opposed to business casual. That might help guide you as well.

I know that this topic has probably been discussed already, but I have a specific question. I have this really nice suit that I want to wear but it is a pants suit. Will this be appropriate to wear to a formal rush?
The flyer said "Business Attire"
