Dress Code
From 1989 Harrods had a dress code policy and had turned away several people who it believed were not dressed appropriately. These included a soldier in uniform, a scout troop, a woman with a mohican hair cut, a 15 stone (95 kg) woman and FC Shakhtar Donetsk's first team for wearing tracksuits. This however, is no longer the case, and most outfits and dress-styles will be allowed within the store, though security staff still retain the right to refuse entry without giving an explanation as to why.

Famous quotes containing the words dress and/or code:
“The dress of a woman of Lhasa,
In its place,
Is an invisible element of that place
Made visible.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“Wise Draco comes, deep in the midnight roll
Of black artillery; he comes, though late;
In code corroborating Calvin’s creed
And cynic tyrannies of honest kings;
He comes, nor parlies; and the Town, redeemed,
Gives thanks devout; nor, being thankful, heeds
The grimy slur on the Republic’s faith implied,
Which holds that Man is naturally good,
And—more—is Nature’s Roman, never to be
scourged.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
