CIC trot-ups???

Quick question...
Now that you have to trot-up at CICs.. what is the dress code?? Is it as smart as a 3day?
At Gatcombe CIC** it wasn't an oficial trot-up, just something you did infront of the vet whenever you arrived, in whatever you happened to be wearing..
I'm asking in regards to Chatsworth tho? being a slightly bigger/smarter event, is more effort put into the trot-up??

I know at Burnham Market some of the grooms were doing it and they werent smart, just in normal!!

At Somerley this year there was no dress code at all, it was very informal, not like at a 3 day!!

last year at chatswaoth they trotted before they showjumped right by the arena warm up in the WC qualifyer and they use to trot the regular three star lot on the bit of road leading from the lorry park to the main arena when they arrived and no formal wear at all x

At ballindenisk was very informal, I trotted up in jeans, flat short converse type shoes ( see siggy) and a coat

Wasn't very formal tbh, grooms were trotting up. I think the fei are rethinking the trot up at CICs

We were passed even before we finished the trot back

Ideal, thanks

Although that is part of the fun of a 3day, getting tarted up for the trot up.. wouldn't have minded doing the same at a CIC

Although don't wanna look out of place

haha (i'll wait for the dressage to do that
