2015 Uniforms

Here is the moment you have all been waiting for, well, mostly the students.

I am really excited about our uniforms this year.  Since our show is about being "just the way you are"  we have decided to let you pick out your own uniform, and let your individuality shine.

Uniforms will need to meet the following requirements:

Colors must be Red, Turquoise, or Navy. You can wear just one, or all three if you like.   If you need to have a black or white undershirt for a dress or some leggings that will be allowed in small amounts.  

You can really do anything except for long maxi skirts, pants (leggings are fine) or anything too baggy or loose fitting.  Clothing cannot look ratty or threadbare. Dresses or shirts must have at least 3 or 4 finger length on the shoulder (no thin or spaghetti straps)

I will allow scarves and hats as long as they do not get in the way or inhibit your performance in any way.   Small earrings are allowed as well.  

I don't recommend socks/tights or anything covering the bottom of your feet. Nail polish and toe nail polish are not allowed.

Because purchasing your uniform will be up to you, we will be taking $25 off of your fees so you can use that money to purchase your uniform.  

Hair:

Must be swept out of your face.  Again, let your individuality come through, but you must be able to move around without it falling into your face.  Hair must be clean and neat with no fly-aways or bed head.  I recommend hair being at least half up.

Makeup:

The following must be worn:

Foundation (liquid or powder but both is recommended)  Please be very careful               when selecting a shade, make sure that it matches your face and your               neck- and doesn't make you too pale or too orange.

Blush (soft pinks - no harsh or bright pinks/oranges)

Lipstick (no bright colors except red will be allowed. It is best to stick to within 2               shades of your natural lip color)

Eye shadow (more neutral tones soft browns, tans, purples)

Black Eyeliner (liquid or creme is best)

Black Mascara

Makeup is meant to bring out your features so you will most likely have to wear more than you are used to, but we don't want it to look outrageous.  Please have all of these items available to bring to every competition in a makeup bag for touch ups etc.  You can purchase all of these items fairly inexpensively from Walmart.  

Deadline:

We will give you until the week before our first competition to find your uniform.  Please have your uniform purchased and wear it, along with how you will wear your hair, to our rehearsal on Monday, February 2nd so we can approve it and see how they look all together.  This will count as our dress rehearsal as well. That will give you 5 days to find something else if it will not work- so keep your receipts and tags until you get the final approval from me.  If you have questions or want to make sure your choice works before that don't hesitate to bring it to a rehearsal for us to look at.  The final decision will be made that Monday during rehearsal when we can see all of your choices together on the floor.

You can go out and buy the makeup this week so you can have it for Saturday, but it isn't necessary.  However, it will also need to be purchased no later than that Monday as well.  

Please let me know if you have any questions!  Have fun!
