Hi yall....my daughter is going through recruitment at a large southern school this year and I am looking for advice. How appropriate would it be to wear a dressier black romper for philantropy day? We found one that is super cute and flattering...but I am worried about it being all black. I did not go through rush, so I would be very appreciative of any advice.
Black absorbs sunlight, so she will be hot. I agree with Titchou that she might be more comfortable in a lighter color, and with APhi2KD that it should be long enough to cover her bottom when she sits down or bends over.

If she wants a dark color, navy is a good choice and pairs well with many colors for shoes/accessories and it won't show sweat.
Length is critical. Remember - she'll be sitting at parties. I've seen girls forget this and they wind up uncomfortable on the floor as they try to make sure everywhere is 'covered.'
