Court Representative Formal Dress Guidelines

Here are the formal wear guidelines for class representatives participating in Homecoming/Winter Homecoming Court.

HOMECOMING DAY ATTIRE GUIDELINES - The purpose of the Homecoming Court dress code is to promote a positive atmosphere, establish guidelines, and promote dress standards that represent Shiloh with modesty and excellence. These guidelines are in place to assist during the tux and dress selection process. Final dress approval will be determined in person; no alterations may be made after the tux and dress have been approved.

Young Men – Tuxes must be ordered from Mr. Tux (in Fayetteville).

• Approved tux with dress shoes.

• No caps or unapproved hats.

• Seniors will choose their tux together; all others will wear the same classic tux.

• Must be clean-cut and clean-shaven per the Shiloh Dress Code.

Young Women –   

• The dress must have one/two permanent, weight-bearing strap(s) (i.e. no strapless dresses) of the same color and fabric. If straps are added, the number of straps will be determined by the style of the dress and must be sewn as a permanent part of the dress.

• Halter style dress must cover the entirety of the chest and back.

• When standing upright with arms at your side, the back of your dress must be at least even with your elbows. 

• Straps must be attached, and the color of the dress (no clear straps)

• No low-cut front and no cleavage can be shown

• No cutouts or exposure on the sides or front (no bare sides)

• Slits must be no higher than the top of the kneecap

• To help meet these guidelines, young women can add approved solid (non-see-through) fabric material. These additions must be approved ahead of time by the Homecoming approval committee. 

• Dresses will not be fully approved until all alterations are completed and modeled in person.
