The Perfect Skirt for Sorority Recruitment? We’ve Got You Covered

One of the most common questions we get at The Sorority Sister is: “What do I wear for recruitment?” And we get it—rush can feel like a fashion show meets first impression, and you want to get it right.

During the early rounds of sorority recruitment, many universities provide PNMs (that’s Potential New Members!) with a t-shirt to wear. This means your outfit choice really comes down to what you pair with it—typically a skirt or a pair of shorts. But not just any skirt. You want something that’s comfortable, exudes confidence, and most importantly – you.

We always say your rush outfit should reflect your personality while also being appropriate for the round. It should help you walk into each house feeling like the best version of yourself—not like you’re trying to be someone else.

Inside our Rush Week Prep Course, we break down the do’s and don’ts of rush outfitting, including styling tips for each day of recruitment. But on TikTok, we’ve taken it one step further. We’re sharing outfit inspiration tailored to each school, each round, and even the exact t-shirts they hand out—yes, we’ve done our homework!

So if you’re prepping for Open House or Philanthropy Round, we’ve curated a look book of skirt styles that are perfect to pair with your university-provided tee. Whether your vibe is classic, trendy, bold, or soft, we’ve got picks that will make you feel confident and stand out—in the best way.
