And of course I would never force anyone to go tanning or get a manicure or anything of that sort, just the basic regulations and allowances chapters provide. Also, I'm worried about how to enforce it because we have a couple of girls who sometimes ignore policies (things like dying their hair in an odd way right before recruitment would not surprise me).
This is why you need to have alumnae help you. There will always be a rebel or two, but that doesn't mean that they should be allowed to tank your entire recruitment.

We were sent home with a list of what we would need for which party, and within the first week of classes, we had pass a "fashion show". We didn't have the luxury of a spare closet, but we did have a lot of savvy sisters who brought extra clothing of acceptable sorts. Lots of praise such as, "Oh, that First Party outfit of yours rocks! But this one...." works wonders.

And remember, it takes SEVEN compliments to overcome ONE negative remark.
