I was wondering if it is ok to wear a dress to pref night that is not black. we were told to wear a cocktail dress/semi-formal but i was wondering if i could wear a pink/peach colored dress as long as it is subtle color and it looks very nice. They told us it didn't have to be black but i don't wanna show up and everyone is wearing black. any advice?
I personally think that it is better if a PNM not wear black to pref. Many chapters will coordinate their members in black dresses so I think that it is nice if the PNM stand out a bit more and not blend in with the chapter. You probably wouldn't wear white to someone else's wedding so don't wear black to someone elses pref night.
I wouldn't wear black to prefs, because many chapters wear black. You want to stand out. PNMs at my school wore a variety of colors, I'm assuming other schools are the same.

True, most girls will wear black, just because that's what's most available in the stores. My daughter wore a beautiful ivory dress pref round. You will more likely be noticed if you do not wear black, and as long as the dress is appropriate (which you said it is,) I don't see how that can be a negative. Whatever you look and feel great in is the best choice. Especially if you already own the dress - save the money!
go with the peach dress-too many girls wear black and they tend to blend in with the sorority members. stand out is a good way ;"remember mary?...she had on the beautiful peach colored dress."

I wore a bright pink dress for my pref. My friend I was going through with was wearing white and in a picture that was taken that night we are the only two people that stand out. All of the other PNMs blended into the background.
