THE DRESS CODE
​

✨ Why a dress code?
The Sirens Ball is not just an event—it’s an immersive experience. The venue, the music, the lighting, and the energy all work together to create an otherworldly environment beneath the waves. When guests arrive in costume, it enhances the magic for everyone.

Your participation helps create a shared illusion, a living dream where we all become creatures of the deep. 

🧜 FOR INSPIRATION
Immerse yourself in deep tones—blues, greens, seafoam, purples, and other hues of the deep. Avoid overly campy aesthetics in favor of elegant fantasy.

Incorporate elements from the watery realms, such as ethically sourced seashells, kelp and sea flora, and oceanic treasures. Accessorize with flair:

• Crowns & headpieces
  
• Light-up accents
  
• Scaled leggings or walking tails
  
• Sashes, belts, capes, or epaulets
  
• Ear fins, webbed hands, body scales, or sea armor
  
• Creatures of the deep (real or imagined)

​
Fantasy costumes are highly preferred and may draw from themes such as:
• Dark Siren
• Mermaid or Sea Witch
• Aquatic Fae or Elementals
• Mythical Sea Creatures
• Dark Nautical or Ghost Ship Attire

Formal eveningwear in oceanic or watery color palettes is also acceptable.

**********************

​FATHOM features blacklight-enhanced environments, so consider incorporating UV-reactive fabrics, body paint, or makeup into your look. Let your costume come alive in the glow—subtle bioluminescence or bold, radiant enchantment are both welcome beneath the waves.

Ask yourself: What kind of siren or sea-dweller are you? Oceanic folklore spans countless cultures, genders, and forms. Your look might be inspired by:

• Sirens, Mermaids, Tritons, Merrow, Undines, or Finfolk
• Selkies, Kelpies, Kraken, Nixes, or Vodyanoy
• Ningyo, Jiaoren, Renyu, Aycayia, and others from global water mythologies

Look to mythology, ancestry, and your own imagination to shape a persona that feels powerful, magical, and deeply you.
