Dressage turnout?

As title...

We are entering our first unaff. walk & trot test.

Do I have to plait mane and tail?

Which is correct beige or white breeches?

Do I wear a stock or tie?

Do I wear a hairnet?

Am I allowed spurs?

Do I have to wear gloves?

Thankies!!!!!

You don't HAVE to plait, but its best to.
Beige or white breeches are fine I think.
I wear a tie- most wear a stock.
Hair net is good.
I am not sure about spurs for walk and trot. It may be best to ask the club you are going to.
You have to wear gloves.

OK. Yes you 'should' plait, it creates a better impression and makes it look as though you have made an effort.

White or beige is fine. I look awful in white so I wear cream. (white would be better)

Stock or tie is fine, but again I always wear a stock for dressage.

Yes a hairnet is a must.

Spur are usually fine, just check the rules of the organiser.

You MUST wear gloves.
