The recent actions of both the Munster Camogie Association and the Cannes Film Festival reflect an increasing tendency to enforce strict dress codes that prioritize tradition and decorum over personal expression. The Munster Association postponed a final match because players chose shorts over the conventional skorts, while the Cannes Festival proposed rules banning sheer fabrics on the red carpet. These decisions prompt criticism about unnecessary regulation and the imposition of outdated norms over individual choice.
The Munster Camogie Associationâs decision to postpone an important final because players opted for shorts instead of the required skorts reflects a troubling trend of enforcing strict dress codes. It begs the question of why such micromanagement is necessary in sports when player comfort and individual choice should take precedence over rigid rules.
At the Cannes Film Festival, officials have introduced strict guidelines around fashion choices, which now dictate what should be considered 'decent' attire. This includes banning sheer fabrics on the red carpet, underscoring a concern for decorum over artistic expression, particularly in a venue celebrated for glamour and self-expression.
