Dress Code for Competitions – Dressy Casual
Palm Springs New Year’s strives to be a classy affair, so it really delights us when our competitors look the part. At a bare minimum, we ask competitors to avoid T-shirts, ripped jeans, hoodies, muscle shirts, or shorts, and ladies – please be mindful of the short tops/bra shots . . . we’re already impressed with your ah-mazing dancing; no need to dazzle us beyond that. 🙂
*A big shout-out to our Hustle and Rising Star competitors for bringing beautiful style and costuming to the floor! You always present so well!
