LADIES VELVETEEN CONCERT DRESS

YSDP requires our female musicians to wear a long-sleeve, full-length black velveteen dress to all concerts. This will allow YSDP to maintain a uniform look for all participants in the orchestras, simplifying the dress code requirements and your search for proper clothing.

These dresses are similar to the ones worn by local high school band, orchestra, and choir members. They are extremely easy to maintain.

If you already own one of these dresses, the YSDP Dress Committee must view and approve your dress to ensure fit and uniformity before YSDP submits the group order.

The cost of the dress is $85.00 for the long-sleeve, full-length dress. This cost is in addition to the orchestral tuition and is due at the time of ordering.

ORDERING SCHEDULE:

For Student Already Own a Velveteen Concert Dress

Many schools require their band, orchestra, and chorus members to purchase one of these velveteen concert dresses (i.e. Naperville North, Naperville Central)

If you already own a velveteen dress, please use Contact Us Form to inform us. Please use “Concert Dress” as subject and indicate at what school you wear it.

To insure compatibility, YSDP Dress Committee must view and approve your dress for uniformity before YSDP submits the group order.  You do not need to purchase a YSDP dress if your dress is compatible.
