Dress Code: No Blue Jeans.

Note: We do not want to intimidate people by asserting a dress code, but this event is about fantasy and dress up and Opulence. Please make an effort to dress up a bit and have fun with it. We will have items for sale and have a dressing/primping area, and if time allows, an area for crafting last minute items on premise like duct tape top hats and flower head pieces.

Please watch our tumblr page for ideas on how to create your look. Again, please show up with at least dark pants, and we can help dress you up further. Don't skip attending just because you don't have a costume. http://detroitmakers.tumblr.com/
