Band & Orchestra Concert Dress

Concert Attire (Except for the Senior Center, HS Band Night, & Non-Performance Field Trips)

In general, this typically consists of a white long-sleeve tux shirt, solid black dress pants, solid long black socks, & solid black dress shoes. Ladies have a second option and are asked to wear an all black, short or long sleeve, full-length dress. A bow tie will be school owned and issued at every concert.

This gives each ensemble a professional look on stage while also giving flexibility and multiple options for students’ individual needs, using formal clothing that can work for other occasions and functions.

All students will be provided with attire based on availability. This concert attire must be returned at the end of the year in the same condition as received. Students who fail to return the attire or who return attire that is damaged beyond ordinary wear and tear will be required to reimburse the school for the full replacement cost.

We understand that some students may choose to purchase their own concert attire. We are providing an opportunity for students to purchase concert attire through the school if desired.

Due to the complexity of the exact measurements for a tuxedo shirt, adults who know how to measure will measure the students at school shortly after the start of the year. Students will receive their shirts in time for their band/orchestra pictures and concerts.

Questions about Concert Dress? Students must notify the teacher/director as soon as possible (and in all instances at least 7 days in advance of a performance or other activity where concert dress is needed) regarding any issues, questions, or problems with concert attire. Students who fail to notify the teacher and are then not appropriately dressed for the performance will not be allowed to perform.

For those of you who didn't purchase your concert attire through the school, but still want to puchase the exact same items. Please go to Friar Tux for the tux shirts (ask for the school discount) or www.tuxedowholesalers.com for the Dakota style dress. You will be able to purchase any of these items through the school only during the first weeks of school. You are always welcome to purchase like items on your own at any vendor, borrow a shirt from the school, and the same outfits are used every year.
