What to wear at sixth form

I am going to a sixth form with a ‘university dress code’… This means the clothes that they want as long as they are suitable for an educational establishment and are not revealing or offensive’

I don’t think this is clear enough and I am hoping someone on here may be able to help me figure out what exactly I should wear.

There is also a list of prohibited clothing which is:
- See through clothing
- Any clothing that reveals underwear - including cut off tops or tops with cut outs
- Ripped or torn clothing such as jeans or - tights
- Very short skirts or shorts
- Flip Flops or sliders
- No caps, hats or hoods in the building
- No sports clothing tracksuits or football tops unless you are playing sports

I am a boy and I really am not sure what to wear.
I'd say to wear anything casual, as university dress code isn't typically smart or formal. So for bottoms it could be jeans, joggers, cargos, trousers (as long as they aren't ripped or scruffy). For tops, any sort of t-shirts, jumpers, pretty much anything you'd wear normally? It just sounds to me like you can pretty much wear anything as long as you're not showing off too much skin. Just wear whatever you're comfortable in! Hope this helps :smile:

I'm a girl but from what I've seen just wear trousers with a shirt and a jumper (not hoodie but that depends on your Sixth form) on top. Or a turtle neck if you really want to do it. Just think smart casual (you can go Pinterest to see ideas)
