Update Elite: Dangerous Premiere - a couple of details

Hi guys,

I noticed quite a few people in various places asking about food and dress code at the party.

There will be plenty of food and drink at the party, so there's no need to worry about any of that.

Dress code is smart casual with a slight emphasis on smart, or costume.

Hope that clears up a few things. Any specific questions ask away or send me a PM.

Cheers!

PS - it's all very exciting here today, the plans are finally coming together for the Premiere - you're in for a big surprise when you get there/watch on the night.

PS thanks for the confirmation on food... people were contemplating getting a mobile kebab van to park outside the venue at midnight! :eek:

Just to throw a question out there that I've seen on the skype chat. Would a pear of nice black jeans and an elite themed t-shirt count as 'smart-casual' or are you guys thinking something closer to smart trousers and an open necked shirt?

Damn you and your teasing sir!!! :p

Have you been saving up all the pizza you've been sent over the months?

That's a bit generic :)
Nothing like making it confusing.
Will the bouncers really turn people away for wearing the wrong trousers?
"Why are you wearing shorts and trainers?"
"I've come in costume"
"?!"
"Tony Hawke...skateboarding...computer game"
"Ok, in you go"

Might want to clear up the No Photography issue that was in the T&C's

(I did PM you about it and you said photography was fine - maybe flashes banned at certain points)

Yes, I'd like a clarification on this too please.

Well on the subject of dress code.

Smart Casual

A dress code of smart casual requires that you look smart but not overly formal.

For men, 'formal' smart casual requires a jacket or blazer, flannels, needlecord trousers, or chinos (not jeans), a shirt with a collar, not a t-shirt, and smart shoes, not necessarily lace-ups, but not trainers or sandals.

A shirt and tie can be worn but an open collar is also acceptable.

If it is winter then opt for an overcoat rather than an anorak or parka. A tweed sports jacket may take the place of a blazer and may be worn with cords or old-fashioned cavalry twill.

For 'formal' smart casual events women should aim to be smart in a dress or skirt and top with a jacket or smart cover-up.Avoid wearing denim, unless it is immaculate and balanced with a tailored jacket and smart accessories. Also avoid high heels and wearing suits, as they look like business clothes.

'Informal' smart casual for men can usually be interpreted as jeans for men but smart, clean, dark-coloured jeans. Other than in high summer or on the beach, trousers are better than shorts and polo shirts better than collarless t-shirts.

Women wearing 'informal smart casual' should dress for the time of day and the season. Denim should be immaculate and sports or beach clothes avoided unless the occasion demands. However, too much tailoring and heels can also look wrong

Hopefully Ed will confirm little bits like yes or no to jeans tshirts etc.


I think that Thargoid costumes are considered smart and casual so you should be fine there.
 
Do hope the surprise isn't Susan Boils as the cabaret!

I shall feel a sudden urge to turn my hearing aids if it is.... :eek: :D

Nobody will be turned away for wearing the wrong trousers.

Jeans and a t-shirt is absolutely fine... the dress code isn't too strict TBH.
