Mark your calendars for next Thursday April 10th from 5-8pm! 

We're all getting our outfits ready for next week's Golden Groove Awards! Here are some helpful tips to think through what to wear: 


Dress Code: Let your style shine! Dress up in retro-inspired glam, or just add a golden touch. 

Outfit Inspiration: 
  • Classic 70s Vibes: Bell bottoms, wide lapel blazers, jumpsuits, fringe, psychedelic prints 
  • Disco Chic: Metallics, sequins, gold accessories, platform shoes, wrap dresses 
  • Modern Twist: Black jeans with a gold top, simple dress with chunky jewelry, gold-rimmed sunglasses 
  • Accessorize: Sunglasses, gold chains, bangles, bandanas, or a funky hat Inclusive 
Style Tips: 
  • Wear what makes you feel confident and comfortable - there’s no pressure for full costume  
  • Mix a retro piece with your regular wardrobe for a subtle but stylish nod to the theme  
  • Don’t have 70s gear? A splash of gold or a bold print is more than enough to groove with us!


This event is open for full participation by all individuals regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, or any other protected category under applicable federal law, state law, and the University's nondiscrimination policy.
