Check out our classification of outfits NOT recommended for opera. Between blunders and tastings, here are the mistakes not to commit!
1- (big) jewels …
At the opera or in a concert hall, the only instruments that make music are on stage or in the orchestra pit. Jewelry and other accessories must remain silent to avoid any competition !
2- Overbig dresses…
It is better to avoid overflowing your clothes on your neighbors who do not necessarily want a plaid. Remember that chairs can only accommodate a small amount of fabric. Crinoline dresses have been outlawed since the 21st century !
3- Coat rack folder …
The seat back in front of you should not be used as a coat rack. Your neighbor may end up with a hat that he does not want to wear !
4- Perfume to excess …
Delicate subject, body odors are sometimes a concern. Spectators who accidentally sit next to a neighbor who is to perfumed during a Wagner opera usually remember it all their lives. A delicate people, gentlemen you will not forget to go use deodorant. And you ladies, even if you wear wonderfully heady perfumes, it is useless to dive into the bottle for your neighbors to notice you.
5- Hairdressing : we say NO
The obese buns, palm trees, quilts and ponytails can become the worst nightmare of your neighbor behind who may spend all the perform to slalom according to your head movements. And if he wears binoculars, his torment will be even greater. If you do not want to be hated, never forget that a few inches of hair are enough to obstruct a vital field of vision
