DRESS CODE
Solent Fetish Meets is a fetish social. This is not jeans-and-T-shirt night. Your outfit helps set the mood for everyone, so we expect clear fetish or alternative gear, not everyday streetwear.
If you are new or light on gear, read this first. If you are still unsure, message us before the night and we will help you plan something that fits.
Sportswear, sneakers and denim are welcome as backup, not the main event. Think sports shorts with a harness and boots, or denim under leather or rubber. Turning up in just jeans and a tee, or basic gym kit with no fetish twist, is not enough. If you do not have much gear yet, go for an all-black alternative look that still feels right for a fetish night: black jeans or trousers, black top, black boots or smart black trainers.
We do allow army, police, navy and security-style looks, but only as fetish or fashion. No real medals, rank slides, name badges, unit patches or service insignia. We are in the home city of a working naval port, so keep it respectful and clearly non-official.

WHAT NOT TO WEAR
No plain jeans and T-shirt with zero fetish element. No basic gym kit. No workwear with big logos. No outfits that look like a normal bar night instead of a fetish event. No nudity or near-nudity: backsides and genitals must be covered, and the focus should be on gear, not being naked.
Nazi symbols, far-right or hate symbols, racist or extremist imagery, and any political party clothing or slogans are strictly banned. Real-world police, military or security insignia that could be taken as active uniform are not allowed.
If you do not meet our dress code, you may be refused entry or asked to leave. If we ask you to leave, do it calmly and without causing trouble. We reserve the right to refuse entry or remove anyone, even with a ticket, if their outfit or behaviour is clearly outside the spirit of the event.
