Newbie Question: Change of Clothes??

[bunny2]

Hi,

I'm totally new (never done this before) and I was thinking of heading to a club. They suggest to "dress to impress" and to bring whatever you need (including a change of clothes) into the building with you. Forgive my ignorance, but why exactly do you need a change of clothes? Does everyone bring a change of clothes to a club?

I attend OFF premise clubs and I OFTEN bring a change of clothes in my purse...sometimes even a change of shoes.

Sometimes in order to follow the theme... I really CANNOT leave the house dressed that way...

Sometimes you want to slip into a sexier piece of lingerie as the night progresses... something with easier access, or not as tight and not so many zippers, buttons... (while the tight clothes look great they aren't so easy to adjust)

For ON premise... Wouldn't you rather leave to go home in fresh clothes... rather than the ones you wore all night ... and possibly had sex in and are all smoky ? (oops revealing my prejudice there...)

Some people like to change clothes because they can't decide what they want to wear... others because they know it will take a while before they feel comfortable enough to get down to something skimpier or they want to see what everyone else is wearing first...

We always take a change of clothes, whether we are heading to a house party, a club or to meet new friends etc. Ya, just never know how the night may end. I will generally wear more sexy attire beneath my 'civillian' clothing, but I do want something fresh to put on before I go home. I also cannot stand to go anywhere without my toothbrush (As I like to brush after eating) and other personal hygenie products. Therefore we always have a packed bag that contains those things.

Another reason for a change of clothes at a club is some don't want the general public to see you entering in very sexy or revealing clothing. It's easier to cover in the winter with a coat, but in the summer you generally don't wear coats.

Well, just goes to show you what a newbie I am; I didn't realize that people typically walk around in lingerie at these clubs. Is that common?

I guess I was thinking that the clubs were more like a dance club/lounge with the option of sex. With that in mind, I never thought to bring a change of clothes to a dance club, so I wasn't sure what the need would be here.

Thanks for the responses, everyone...

You will see all types of dress at the clubs. Everything from sexy club wear to lingerie (both could be very revealing). Wear what you feel comfortable with.

I usually wear something semi-revealing to start with - a sexy dress - and then bring along something more revealing (lingerie) to change into as the night progresses and as my comfort level increases.

I have one friend who can never decide what she wants to wear and I have seen her change clothes as many as 6 times in one night at an off-premise club.

Thanks again for all the replies, guys. Your insight has really helped. I can especially see bringing a change of clothes for once you find out what the atmosphere is like at the place.

Some time back, when we were going to clubs, B would normally dress for the occasion at home. My truck is high enough to keep most eyes from peering in.

On night, however, because her daughters were at home, she elected to dress in a regular top and jeans. She put her Dress-To-Kill gear in a paper bag.

So, on the freeway, at 70 MPH, she changed. Mooning, in this case, was completely unintended.

Dear God. Fond memories of bygone days.

Sort of like the scouting motto, "Be Prepared".

Again, the response for many situations and circumstances - "Better to have it and not need it - than to need it and not have it"

(Change of clothes in this thread)

We too go to "off premise clubs" and I can't say I recall anyone doing a frequent changing of outfits. Yes, there are times a layered outfit changes in appearance as the evening progresses, perhaps.

But a "ditty bag" secured in your vehicle for use is never a bad idea. The need for just such becomes evidenced by the memories of times you wish you'd thought of it. I.E. - that outfit that looked smashing on the dance floor in club lighting can seem strangely peculiar to be seen arriving home in - around mid-day the following day. And it can impact any thought of stopping for food. It can even affect whether you stop for gas, and where? - or pray you aren't as close to running empty as it appears.

Toothbrush, toothpaste, the makeup basics, and whatever hair items could be necessary - along with a t-shirt and shorts or jeans can be a face-saving inspiration you'll be happy about whether just for fast food drive thru, the walk across a hotel lobby (head up, smiling), to say nothing of smiling and waving to the judgemental neighbors, feigning innocence.

But notice the word "secured" in your vehicle two paragraphs up? That is said to point out to you - your choices about your evening may feel less pressure from others - if you do not appear to have arrived with an overnight bag, and you are merely trolling for the locale wth the activity a foregone conclusion.

That's just my take on it - whether you are a lady with a husband/date or you're a single. Keeps your style your own business.

this is an interesting topic.

when my wife (and i) go to some clubs or parties, she usually wears some clothes sorta socially acceptable like a one-piece skirt. No bra is necessary anway. when the night progresses, she may take off her g-string in the restroom and leave it in the handbag. we really loves the thrill and the flash. and if the skirt is semi-revealing, it'll be a big turn-on if there is nothing beneath. but a clean shave is recommendated otherwise it'll make the dress look too revealing.
