As a serious simulation, THIMUN expects personal appearance to be appropriate for a professional setting. Participants (this includes MUN-Directors and Chaperones) should not wear clothing, jewellery, or accessories which are distracting, inappropriate, or which may call attention to themselves – either individually or as a group.
Inappropriate dress includes, but is not limited to:
- Team accessories such as scarves, hats, non-THIMUN badges/buttons/pins
- Sports shoes & denim clothes
- National costume or military attire
All participants should be dressed in formal attire. This may include a formal suit, shirt and tie, or an equivalent alternative such as a blazer or jacket with formal trousers. Other appropriate options include smart separates (trousers or skirts), or formal dresses. Low necklines and/or short skirts are not considered appropriate. The dress code also applies to MUN Directors. The hot climate in Singapore is not an excuse for not following the dress code outlined above.
Schools are expected to select their students carefully. This is important not only for the good name of THIMUN but also for the reputation of the school concerned.
