I'm moderately horrified when I think back on what I wore to recruitment. Of course, it basically conformed to what the guidebook said (jean capris? go for it!), but this was SEC rush, so sundresses were THE thing. Oops.

I also brought a big old messenger bag. I can still remember being at one house and the girls being like "ooh, we love your bag!" and I believed them (and wanted to join their house). Cut to the next year, going through rush on the other side, realizing "oh sweet heavens those girls at ABC were lying to me so hard."

In general, I think every Panhellenic "what to wear to rush" guide is at least a notch or two too casual so as not to intimidate any PNMs, but I actually just think it puts the naive kids (like I was) at a disadvantage.
