Concert Attire for Adults
Clothing
For women: Knee-length or longer skirts/dresses or dress pants. Choose formal and comfortable clothing.
For men: Formal clothing such as suits, dress shirts and dress pants. Make sure you feel comfortable wearing them. Avoid wearing a long tie if you’re playing piano.
Hair
Avoid long or messy hair. Pull the hair away from the face so you can focus on your hand, body and the instrument.
Accessories
Avoid dangling earrings. Short necklaces and light wedding rings are acceptable depending on the instrument. If you play piano, strings, woodwinds, percussion or brass, avoid wearing bracelets. For singers, rings and bracelets are acceptable as long as they fit tightly.
Shoes
Avoid wearing tennis shoes, flip-flops, sandals and high heels. Make sure you can feel and control the pedal if you’re playing piano. For string players and singers, avoid wearing shoes that make noises to avoid distraction on the stage.
