i don't think that it has anything to do with the stray sequin or bead being shed in the carpet, more that it is a more specific way for the pnms to understand the appropriate dress for pref. rounds. i have heard of pnms showing up in full blown prom regalia; hair, jewelry and long dress. now, imagine how awful they feel when they arrive and see how overdressed they are.
we are fairly specific as to what the chapter i advise wears, in that the recruitment vp decides the dress for each round ;we say dark jeans, with (insert color) strappy heeled sandals and polo style shirt that the chapter is ordering. we don't specify the make. we advisors even have dress checks before recruitment to make sure everyone is on the same page. we ask that noone remove tags and that they girls hold on to their receipts until after dress check-luckily, we have not had to ask anyone to return anything(yet).
