Dress Code
Plan your wardrobe in advance to be appropriately dressed for each speech presentation. You need not be in formal attire for every class, but do not come in shorts, slippers, mini-skirts or revealing and transparent clothes. Your attire must enhance your image, so elegance and simplicity should be your main consideration for your wardrobe selection. Zany clothes are allowed but they must reveal taste and style. Remember, the focus of the audience should be on your speech and the messages that you want to deliver. Your clothes should not be a distraction to the audience.
