Packing Suggestions: #4

Swimwear

Appropriate one-and two-piece swimsuits may be worn while on the beach or in a pool area. All swimwear should be covered with a T-shirt or wrap when going to and from the beach or pool. It is the etiquette of the European countries.

Nightwear

At times, Ambassadors may attend nightly meetings after they have changed into pajamas or other nightwear. Appropriate, modest dress standards also apply here. For girls, that means that pajamas should cover the four Bs (bellies, buttocks, breats, and backs) and shoulders. Boys should wear shirts with pajama bottoms when outside the hotel room.

What Not To Wear

As a Student Ambassador, you're expected to wear tidy clothing that is respectful of your surroundings and suited to your activity. The following are considered inappropriate:

  • Ripped or torn clothing
  • Exposed undergarments
  • Clothing with rude expressions or logos or that promote illegal activities
  • Excessively short skirts or shorts (follow the fingertip rule for length)
  • Spaghetti-strap or halter tops
  • Baseball caps when worn indoors or any other hat as far as that is concerned
  • Sweatpants when worn in public places

A shirt, top, or swimsuit (bikini) exposed a bare midriff is not appropriate for wear in hotels, on the street, or in public areas.

Students must always avoid exposing the four Bs (bellies, buttocks, breasts, and backs). Leaders will ask anyone dressed inappropriately to change.

Note: To adhere to cultural protocols of particular sites, students may be required to cover their shoulders, wear head coverings, or wear pants or skirts that cover the knees.
