I was thinking as I don't usually dress for parties I was gonna try something different, but I don't what dress code (if there is any) for Hardcore. I was thinking of getting this combo inspired by JSRF but I didn't know if it was appropriate.





I also have this animated PONG shirt I got at a gaming convention.



Lastly I just bought this shirt reminiscent of the Zelda health bar that lights up when you're next to each other (I bought the single's version though... )



So would this be something that that's acceptable or would I get any leering eye stares? Just want to make sure I don't offend anybody.

Those clothes are far too tame for a US rave.

You need to wear the brightest clothes you can find, paint yourself to look like a rainbow and raid your mums jewellery box!

And if you have any young children/siblings, don't forget to borrow some of their cuddly toys to strap to yourself.

;)

Face meet palm.

This is why I don't go to many raves, I've only been to a few. And each time it was just stupid, and only stayed to watch my friends DJ something then I left.

Last time I went some dude try to use Glow Sticks and be all hot stuff and smacked himself in the face, was hilarious.

Just wear something bright but not too bright to play it safe. If it were me I'd just wear jeans and a blue tshirt or polo shirt. But polo shirts tend to be heavier so you sweat loads

But personally I love seeing people in really bright colours, it's more fun like, and I remember hearing that people are attracted to bright colours much more than dark colours so thats a plus if you're single or whatever.

I like the pong shirt.

just wear comfortable clothes for dancing and something you won't mind if you get a cigarette burn in.

cargo pants/shorts are nice to wear so you can keep all your belongings on you and not have to put them in a pack back or jacket and then set them down somewhere and have to worry about someone taking your belongings

that can't be right! did you guys robbed a toy store?

i like how girls dress up tough, with the skirts and all that crazy and shiny stuff, i think its part of the rave experince and the fun, plus they look kind of hot



if I ever go to a rave I'd like to go like something like this, something very futuristic:
