Dress Code
Last updated: 16 June 2026 · Version 2.0
MEDIMUN requires business formal ("Western Business Attire") for all delegates and officers throughout the workshop and conference. Dressing the part is a mark of respect for the formal, diplomatic setting we simulate, and it helps every delegate be taken seriously. This policy explains what that means, offers practical guidance, and sets out the accommodations we make for cultural, religious, national, accessibility, and climate needs.
1. Why We Have a Dress Code
MEDIMUN simulates the United Nations, an environment of professional diplomacy. A consistent standard of formal dress:
signals respect for the conference, fellow delegates, and the issues being debated;
removes distraction and helps everyone focus on substance;
prepares delegates for the professional and academic settings they are working toward.
The standard is business formal, also called Western Business Attire (WBA).
2. General Standards (All Participants)
These standards apply to everyone, expressed in gender-neutral terms. The guidance in Sections 3–4 offers concrete examples; you may follow whichever best suits you, provided the overall result is business formal.
Formal over casual. No casual wear — no jeans or denim of any colour, no sneakers/trainers or athletic footwear, no t-shirts, hoodies, shorts, leggings, or sportswear.
Neutral and understated. Favour neutral or dark tones (black, navy, charcoal, grey). Avoid bright, flashy, or distracting colours and patterns.
Well-fitted and tidy. Clothes should be clean, pressed/wrinkle-free, and properly fitted — neither too tight nor too loose.
Modest and professional. Avoid revealing clothing. Skirts and dresses should be knee-length or longer. Tops should not be low-cut; sleeveless tops should be worn under a blazer.
Minimal accessories. Keep jewellery and accessories simple and professional.
No affiliations on display. Do not display political slogans, sports-team branding, or commercial logos. The one welcome exception is a small pin representing the country or entity you are assigned to.
