<p>I remember my son’s USC audition day included many different genres milling about in one area, so we had the opportunity to see classical (voice and instrumental) students as well as jazz. </p>
<p>The students that stood out in “not a good way” were the girls dressed in formal performance wear (sequins, spaghetti straps, chiffon, etc.) and the young men in tuxedos. The way they glanced around at their professionally-dressed/audition-appropriate peers, they seemed to know they had gone over the top. </p>
<p>Hopefully, this will provide a helpful visual for those of you still planning your outfits (although everyone here seems so well informed, I can’t imagine you’d go overboard).</p>
