In my experience at Vandy, a limited number of chapters participate in fall recruitment and those chapters typically have a good idea about which potential members they are interested in (often close friends of the other sophomores in the sorority). If you have a chapter in mind that you are interested in joining or friends in a group that is participating, then fall recruitment might be for you.
If you are not as familiar with all of the groups or do not know a lot of the women in the groups that are participating in the fall, then formal recruitment in the spring will give you an opportunity to become acquainted with all of the organizations. I wouldn’t say that being a sophomore is a disadvantage in the spring. It may be more so for some chapters than others, but in general I think sophomores do just fine.
As far as the dress code goes for formal recruitment in the spring, Greek Life will provide you will all of that information in terms of what you need to wear for each round. It can be quite cold in Nashville in January, so keep in mind that a lot of what you see for formal recruitment at other schools will not apply.
