    What do you people have against them? I get the sweat thing (though I'd assume part of the appeal in wearing such a thing is to try and reduce your sweat). I know this is a What Not to Wear thread but honestly, I think if a guy is comfortable in a vest (and shorts!) then he should go right ahead and wear them. They aren't actually causing you any discomfort, are they?

    It's fun trying to lead a hip-spin on a follow wearing a wide loose belt, and just sending her belt whistling round her midriff.

    when I was at Ice 2006 I had a dress on that had long threads of beads on it, when I span out it whiped the people dancing around me some lady when't mad shreeking at me on the dance floor, I didn't realise what she was on about till the end of the dance I had to tie then in a big knot to stop 'em swishing about

    Re: What NOT to Wear Dancing

    i try not to wear long skirts as when i dance as i tend to catch the hem on my heals in dips.

    Personally it's the guys in black that do it for me. A bit more of a rugged look. I also really like it when the guy changes his look throughout the evening.

    I try not to wear skirts that are too long as they tend to catch in my heels. Also big earing are a no no. As are watches, bracelets and necklaces that are too big and jingly.

    Anyone who looks like they have made an effort is a bonus too. A clean shirt probably means a good wash or shower was had before dancing too. Always a good thing.

    Re: What NOT to Wear Dancing

    On several occasions I have had jewellery ripped off my person and spent the rest of the evening scrabbling on the dance floor looking for them - learnt my lesson now and wear no jewellery at all - it's like being back in a school PE lesson!

    Re: What NOT to Wear Dancing

    I had a girl catch her fingers in the front of my shirt last week as I span her. I just laughed and said I knew my dancing was great but would she wait till the end of the track to rip my clothes off

    Oh how we laughed when we were waiting for the ambulance to collect me.... some people have no sense of humour

    Re: What NOT to Wear Dancing

    NOT:

    Big rings (especially the kuckle duster flavour ones).
    Clunky bracelets (increase CO2 emissions)
    Chastity belts (I always forget my skeleton key)

    Re: What NOT to Wear Dancing

    I had trouble dancing in a cat costume as people kept grabbing my tail as I was coming out of a spin thinking it was my hand ...

    Under more normal circumstances - I never wear skirts, dresses or loose fitting tops as I tend to get turned upside down a lot. Worked the last one out the hard way! No earrings that anyone could get a finger through. No rings at all. My bracelets are tiny smooth beads on elastic so would just break rather than do any damage to anyone. Jeans I find too hot. No hair ornaments/clips which sit away from the head.

    I have been guilty of dangly sleeves on a few occasions, but not regularly.

    I have seen many, many unsuitable things being worn, from huge, long necklaces, to chunky rings, stiletto heeled mule sandals, and have even been subjected to a flared skirt with stockings and suspenders underneath!

    Quite right, i'll be able to keep cool wearing them

    Don't know why there is such opposition to shorts myself By this i mean shorts that are pretty much knee length - i dont mean the running shorts type Haven't worn them myself but if it is hot in the summer then i would certainly consider it

    Wanna look like an old bloke (even if you have muscles) wear a vest!

    I bet the girls love all that sweat dripping on them. Yummy
    Im with you here though on your disapproval of vests

    Re: What NOT to Wear Dancing

    I think it's not necessarily the thought of shorts per se. More the combination of the shorts and dance footwear (and socks!)!
    I distinctly remember a guy that used to always wear beige shorts (sweaty bum patch included) with black socks and B&W shoes! Not a great image!
