Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen’s The Row has kept a rather low profile since launching in 2006.

This morning, I was forwarded six pages worth of dress code requirements for Pi Phi’s Cornell chapter.
Because it’s Friday, and they’re outrageous, I’m sharing.
What does one wear to rush?

On Clothes
– Denim leggings are appropriate as long as it’s done right: aka, not from American Apparel and worn with chic, cool, chunky boots over them and a longer top.
– No satin dresses. No one looks good in satin dresses unless it’s from Betsey Johnson or Dolce & Gabbana, you weigh less than 130 pounds, have three pairs of Spanx on and it’s New Years Eve.
– No Frumpy.
