"Hey everyone, I (female) get freaked out at the idea of mandatory dress-down.Sounds daft I know, just prefer to do it when I'm ready sort of thing. Some club nights I stay more dressed than others in open areas, some nights I'd happily walk round naked (but I don't)... Anyone else feel the same before they went for the first time? It's been a blocker for a few clubs recently and don't want it to be..." How about trying clubs without mandatory dress down? As not every single club requires people to dress down, even when they move to play areas. Some examples in my "neck of woods" are Jaydees and Penthouse Playrooms. Further afield - the Attic. I think Xtasia doesn't require people to dress down either but not 100% sure. | |||

"First time we went to a dress down club we were extremely nervous and weren't sure it would be 'our thing'at all. In fact it was fine and that club (Chams) is now our absolute favourite. The vibe is much sexier and you feel anything could happen at any time of the day or evening rather than everyone hanging on to dress down and play at some point later in the eveining " This is super encouraging, Chams is actually on of the ones we've had in mind for quite some time now but keep putting it off xx | |||

"The attic is a great club for this. Busy on their party nights but if you want it quieter then just go on a standard night, not too busy but not dead either. Also like the naughty pineapple in Leicester if you're looking for a smaller club Jaydees is one I haven't been to but have heard excellent things about." We love Attic! Busy nights and quiter ones, always a great night. Not had a venture to the other 2 yet xx | |||

The worst that can happen is you decide you don't like it and then you can just stick to what you know is ok for you. We've talked to à number of people at Chams who initially had doubts about dressing down that were part of more general body image anxieties but actually they ended up feeling more confident and relaxed. | |||

"Thanks guys and girls To choose the best time to go really depends on what you want from a first visit? Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday are less busy and chilled. Note Thursday night is naked night, so the ultimate dress down | |||

But Mr didn't enjoy it. Females will always be the centre of attention, but getting ignored really made his night less than fun. Pointless if we don't both enjoy the experience really, but we'd give a club a try if we had a clothing optional place relatively close by. | |||

So this is less about clothing and more about your husband’s experience… Would it have been any different if he had kept his clothes on? Try the Attic or Xtasia, there’s no requirement to dress down. | |||

We used to go to Attic where there is no dress down but recently the men they let in from the street definitely doesn't give it a good vibe, we have now stopped going as we like Chameleons for the dress down code and men being respectful. We used to think dress down clubs weren't for us but very quickly decided it has a much sexier vibe and feels like a swingers club rather than a club disrespectful men think is a sex club. Females can wear a really nice sexy dress for dress down so if the female is spending a lot of time getting dressed up a small little sexy number works or even some really nice sexy lingerie. The good thing about all clubs are some people will like and some they won't. Find a club that works for you but dress down is no different to going swimming where everyone is in a dress down situation. Chameleons is our go to club now and it's 200 miles away, we love it.

"We would hate the idea of mandatory dress down and definitely wouldn't go to a club that has it. It's great for those that enjoy it but we think it's much less sexy if everyone is naked. There are so many different outfits and clothing choices that are incredibly hot - we want to see as much of that as possible. " Dress down is not naked, naked nights are naked | |||

Dress down is not naked, naked nights are naked To be fair dress down can be naked. Seen a few naked people in dress down clubs and you can include us in that too on occasions. However it's not the norm as most people wear a towel or underwear. Seen some beautiful lingerie over the years. Or simply wearing nothing but an item/accessory or two that make a real impact. Dress down doesn't mean you can't make an effort. | |||

Dress down is not naked, naked nights are naked Seen people walking around naked in clubs you don't have to dress down at all, some people love being naked but maybe not down your local pub | |||

But being ignored really didn't encourage him to change his clothing stance. If I hadn't been encouraging, he'd have stayed dressed. The thing is that he undressed because I did. Nobody other than me bothered with him. I have to say, if the roles were reversed, I'd be the same. It's the women that get the attention & therefore dictate the agenda. It's not a great scenario. We all should feel valued in that environment. When 1 of a couple doesn't, they're either a sub or unhappy. So based on that, we've decided not to repeat the experience. | |||
