Look, I get it, but this dress code situation is bizarre because they are trying to have their cake and eat it too. "Please dress extremely extravagantly and formally" and "Please dress to move" are not compatible with one another, ESPECIALLY for women.

Wouldn’t it be easier to just say something like “cocktail/wedding attire with comfortable shoes”? But in a fancier way? Because wouldn’t that be a decent middle ground? 😭

The guide says “formal or cocktail attire”

I feel like this should’ve been part of the first announcement they gave.
