URGENT help with what to wear for formal dinner!

[KSUViolet06]

No jeans. At all.

A little black dress or maybe at MINIMUM, dress pants and an appropriately dressy top.

But no jeans.

Am I the only one who thinks formal dinner as PRE-recruitment is a little odd, and that her terminology might be flawed? I mean, formal dinners are usually something that happens at pref, not before they've even gotten started meeting sisters.

Is this group NPC, NPHC, or other?

Sororities have what is known as, "pin attire" or "dressing to pin", in other words, clothes that are suitable for wearing with your pin.

That was my thinking too...I have a feeling that A) like 33 said, her terminology is flawed, or B) the sorority uses "formal dinner" a bit losely. Or maybe a combination of the both.

I know that when we have to wear "badge attire" to chapter, we call it "formal chapter". Obviously, we don't have to wear evening gown or anything like that, but I guess we just use that term so that we can get the point across that you better not show up in jeans or sweats!!
