Dress Code
The International Federation for Equestrian Sports (FEI) regulates dress codes for competitive vaulting. Every 2-3 years, new guidelines are released, which consistently declare that vaulters must wear formfitting uniforms that do not conceal the line and form of the vaulter's body, as well as not hinder the movement of the vaulter or the safe interaction between the vaulters. For that reason, accessories such as belts, capes or hats are prohibited. Additionally, men’s trousers must be secured at the ankle. It is also expected that clothing be appropriate for the competition and does not give the effect of nudity. The most common formfitting uniforms worn by vaulters are unitards.

Famous quotes containing the words dress and/or code:
“A blond in a red dress can do without introductions—but not without a bodyguard.”
—Rona Jaffe (b. 1932)
“Hollywood keeps before its child audiences a string of glorified young heroes, everyone of whom is an unhesitating and violent Anarchist. His one answer to everything that annoys him or disparages his country or his parents or his young lady or his personal code of manly conduct is to give the offender a “sock” in the jaw.... My observation leads me to believe that it is not the virtuous people who are good at socking jaws.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
