The OP is a Sister so I am going to be as Sisterly like as possible...
Please do not post things that even tell remotely about our Ritual including dress and what color. It may be "common knowledge" but it is still not your place to be telling. As long as everyone is in proper Ritual attire, what should unify you is the fact that you are all going through the Ritual that other Tri Deltas have gone through for over a century. The Ritual unifies us as Tri Deltas; NOT whether or not the attire is identical. There are guidelines, you should know them. As long as those guidelines are being met, that is that.

She didn't put it very well, but I think that's kind of what she's going for - that to get identical, appropriate clothing is easier than calling people out for not meeting the guidelines. To which, I completely agree. If you have to stress about whether your outfit is proper and will be approved, or if you get reprimanded about this or that - well, it kinda makes you dread ritual.
Kind of like when we switched our composite pics from regular clothing to drapes. Some people thought it was making us look too clone like, but not having to worry about what to wear, if someone else would wear it, what color the background would be and if it would clash - it took a lot off people's minds.

He's one of my chapter's alumni from 1997. It sucks that it only comes in that size, though.

I just bit my lip a little because I was not ready for any of that.
If you are allowed to tell, does the purse hold the chapter's check book and credit cards?
Regardless, that gives a whole new meaning to y'all's Balanced Man Program.

I bet there's at least one ritual outfit from Dr. Seuss stories, a song by Manilow, and they eat Wendy's food.
Frosties, and the Cat in the Hat for sure.

Seriously, my SigEp fantasy includes your Grand President taking me to Wendy's for a spicy chicken sandwich before a Barry Manilow concert, then having John Goodman and Carroll O'Connor read me Dr. Seuss bedtime stories.

I see... Tri Delta has "things" for people to wear if they do not have appropriate attire or are not dressed in appropriate attire at the Ritual. If you have nothing to wear, there are articles of clothing for you to wear provided by the EO. Maybe that is just the chapter I advise, but in 2 different places where I have seen/been involved with Ritual this has been the case. I get that making things identical would make life easier though.

This is a stellar idea. If a chapter's existence has been an itinerant one, though (closed and reopened, moving from house to house, not HAVING a house, among other things) things can get misplaced. I'd hope everyone has a "portable catsuit closet" so to speak, but sometimes reality just gets in the way, unfortunately.

My first time participating in ritual almost didn't happen because I'm short and nothing fit. Thank goodness I could count on my brothers in a pinch!
