We do all blue dresses for 1st round. When we first started everyone had the same concerns you did, but it really looks great. There is variety in color shades and style to show individualism, yet it still looks cohesive. The best thing is it very memorable for overwhelmed PNMs. "Oh yeah, those girls in blue. I remember them!"
We tell the members what we want back in early spring so they have plenty of time to shop. No navy, prints, or sparkles/sequins, just a nice sun dress in a shade of medium blue. We have a few girls do a mini fashion show to provide examples. Also, the Recruitment team searches some of the more popular stores internet catalogs to give an easy way to buy exactly what we're looking for if they can't find one or don't want to take the time to look. Plus, since we've done the same style/theme for many years now, an active can use the same dress year after year.
