Concert Choir Uniform Requirements
​
Young Women:
Girl’s in the concert choir wear white temple dresses.
Below you will find a list of Approved styles. We ask that you stick to the approved styles. These dresses can be purchased at the Deseret Book Distribution Center.
(Please be aware that Deseret Book carries many styles of dresses but not all have been approved for the Choir.)
However, we do understand that supply chain issues are making it hard to find such dresses. Keep in mind that you can look at DI for some of the older styles. Likewise as long as there are no distracting patterns on the dress, if it the requirements listed below for length and fit you can always send an picture to Candy Brandon at candybrandon@gmail.com to get an unlisted style approved.
Here is the list of approved dresses:
Sophia,
Christine
Alice
Jasmine.
(All dresses previously approved as well)
All dresses must be hemmed 1 inch above the floor with shoes on. Also, make sure sleeves are hemmed to the wrist; they should rest right above the thumb bone. Do not have sleeves that flare at the end. Each girl will also need a full-length white slip (these can also be purchased at the distribution center.) Bright undergarments are very visible even with a slip. Please wear white/light bras and panties.
Shoes: White closed toe shoes with a white sole. Shoes may have no more than a 1” heel. Temple shoes or slippers are also approved. NO Sandals.
Please only wear inconspicuous hair accessories. (This means unnoticeable. NO flowers or colored bands) We ask that no necklaces, rings or bracelets be worn. A simple pair of pearl earrings is the only piece of jewelry we would like you to wear if you choose to wear earrings. Please note that many disregard this rule.
There will be NO necklaces, NO rings, NO bracelets (even woven ones) and NO dangling earrings, no exceptions. Thank you for your strict adherance to these standards!
*Remember that as a choir we desire to have a uniform look and do not want one person to stand out above another.
Young Men:
Boys in the concert choir wear the same black suit or blazer from MR MAC. Please get sized at Mr. Mac as soon as you are accepted into Concert Choir (even if you can't pay right away) -- it does take some time to order suits so we would ask that you not wait until the last minute. When you arrive at MR MAC please let them know you are with the Utah Valley Children’s Choir and they will help you find the right suit.
Boys sizes 6-20 are $125.00
Men’s sizes are $199.00
If you choose to get just a blazer you must have nice black dress slacks that match the jacket in fabric and
color. Please check to make sure your slacks are not faded! The suit, however, is such a great deal that we recommend you get the suit.
No striped, Navy, or faded suits are to be worn. Also please make sure you have black buttons on your suit!
You will also need black shoes, black dress socks, and a long sleeve white dress shirt. If you are planning to wear a
white shirt you already own please make sure it is bright white, not grayed or yellowed. Shirts also need to be
pressed!
For those wearing adult sizes. If you plan ahead and follow the rules of ordering a black only, two or three button suit with no pattern and no shiny material, then there is a website where you can order them for around $100. You will be responsible for measuring your own child and making sure that you get it tailored to fit BEFORE any concerts.
The website is alaindupetit.com. When in doubt, clear any suit with Candy Brandon before you order.
If you have any uniform questions or need help with dress alterations, please contact Candy Brandon at 801-471-8680 or candybrandon@gmail.com.
