Want to know what to wear?

I am sure since you have been called to serve on this amazing choir you have had the thought "What are we going to wear?" or maybe you have been wondering what in your closet you might already have that would work? Well, you are in luck! Sister Crockett, Sister Eborn, and Sister Harman have been called to make this part as stress free for you as possible. They have been given the colors and regulations in which we will need to abide by for the broadcast performance. :)

First things first: You will need to come to the third (3rd) rehearsal dressed in the clothing in which you would like to have approved for the broadcast performance. You will either be checked off as all is well or if we need to make some changes we will let you know at that time. You have a couple of weeks to look through your closet, look through a friends closet, or hit a department store to find what it is you will need. If you find you are 'stuck' please let one of us know and we will be happy to do our best to help get you what you will need.

Now then...let's work our way from the top to the bottom. The blouses you need to be thinking about need to be as follows:

Primary Aged Girls (8-12): Short Sleeve, 3/4 Length Sleeve, or Long Sleeve
Young Women Aged Girls (12-18): 3/4 Length Sleeve or Long Sleeve
Women (Aged 18+): 3/4 Length Sleeve or Long Sleeve

We don't want form fitting or baggy t-shirt looking tops please. Let us remind you that you are representing our Heavenly Father and we would only want the best for Him. Sister Crockett, Sister Eborn, and Sister Harman will have examples on Sunday, August 17 of what kind of top will be acceptable and what won't work as well. The colors that we have been given for this broadcast are here:

Colors from left to right: Plum, Mauve, Apricot, Harvest Orange, Fuchsia, Dark Coral, Burgundy, Blackberry

You have eight colors you can choose from. Our biggest recommendation if you are choosing a darker purple (to the right of the color swatch) is to be mindful that those colors can tend to look almost black. We want to try and avoid that please. We want to have the deeper purple tones mixed in but we want to be sure to keep the 'black' out. :)

Tops we want you to keep in mind are those that button up with a collar, those that are a dressier blouse and not one that perhaps is solid in color but has more of an athletic feel or Saturday afternoon feel to it. A blouse with a cardigan on top is okay as long as both items of clothing are the exact same color. We can have no multi coloring layering. Again, Sister Crockett, Sister Eborn, and Sister Harman will have examples for you to look at at rehearsal.

Next let's talk about the bottom half. You will need to find a black skirt that will cover your knees both when you stand up and when you are sitting down with your legs crossed. Make sure you do the sit down and cross your leg test. :) Some examples would be:

Some of you might think that you have a skirt already that will work and that is great! Please please just be sure you sit down and cross your leg test. Some skirts that will not work are:

Some look like they would be long enough, however, once seated and legs crossed...they just simply won't work.

Nylons are required. There will be no exceptions on this. You will need a pair of off black nylons (ages 13+) and for the younger girls a pair of black tights will work (8-12).

Shoes. Conference Center rules are that you must have closed toes and closed heels on your shoes. You can have a small heel but no stiletto or really high heeled shoes. You will need a pair of black closed toe/closed heel shoes for our conference broadcast performance.

Small heel or basic flat is what you will want to look for

There will be no boots or open toed shoes allowed at all. Please make note of this now so that there are no surprises when you arrive to be checked off for your attire. Also, please note...no high heels or stiletto type shoes will be approved.

We are excited about the color selection and know that they are only going to accent your beautiful singing voices as you perform.
