Frequently Asked Questions

Is there an age limit on entry to the Ball?
Yes, the Ball is an adult evening and on licenced premises. Therefore we cannot allow entry to under 18's.
 
I have leather and latex outfits that I would like to wear to the Ball. Is that ok?
The Ball is not a fetish event. The Ball's intention is to be a grand event for elegant FORMAL dressing. If you have the equivalent of that in latex or leather, e.g. A latex ball gown or leather corset and ball skirt, then that is acceptable.
 
Can my husband wear his corset?
There is no problem with your husband wearing a corset provided he is otherwise formally dressed as a man.
 
My husband likes to cross-dress. Is it acceptable for him to cross-dress at the Ball?
Sorry but these days there are many outlets for men to cross-dress, so all gentlemen should follow the stated male dress code of white/black tie.
