Proper Attire Required

All students need to invest in at least one tuxedo shirt. It is industry standard to wear solid black pants and a white tux shirt during auditions. Your black pants should not be cotton as cotton fades and looks bad. The casino will provide you with uniform shirts, however, you will have to supply your own black pants. A standard wing tipped tuxedo shirt is exactly what you need.

Those students wishing to deal outside functions will have a greater need for a tuxedo shirt and a black bow tie. If you intend to deal parties it may be a good idea to have more than one shirt, just in case.
