A theme may suggest a colour or costume while the venue has separate entry rules. Ask whether taking part in the theme affects admission and whether particular rooms have additional requirements. Read the dated event information before choosing an outfit.

Think about walking to the venue, waiting outside and moving through the room. Check storage for a coat or extra belongings. You can use a small part of the theme if the event permits it. Other guests’ outfits express their choices for the evening. Ask before touching a person, their clothing or a prop, and accept a declined invitation promptly.
