Las Madrinas

I have a reference from the Los Angeles Times for the Las Madrinas ball; just need to find the clipping. PKM 22:50, 28 May 2005 (UTC)Reply

Parliament in the U.S.

When does the sitting of Parliament occur in the United States?

Royal Ascot dress code

edit

Hmm. Why does the Royal Ascot section on dress codes state that there's no bare shoulders to be shown by women, and yet the picture accompanying that section clearly show a woman in sleeveless dress? Nijyo (talk) 05:21, 5 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

The dress code applies the the Royal enclosure only (the most exclusive area of the venue). The picture is just a general one from Royal Ascot - indeed the woman with the sleeveless dress would not be able to enter the Royal enclosure, but can attend Royal Ascot Kurt O'Sys (talk) 16:12, 22 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

The examples and perspective in this article may not represent a worldwide view

edit

It's not meant to. And how can it ever? It's a thing that is confined to the Anglosphere, and pre-war France. Or even just London the Home Counties, Hollywood and Manhattan. --94.2.63.58 (talk) 21:39, 11 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hello, thanks for the comment. Actually, there is a "season" in the U.S., though much of it may be historic now. So it is perfectly fitting for this article to have a little note at the top suggesting that other editors might like to try their hand at globalizing it. I imagine there will be other countries with their own "seasons." BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 21:48, 27 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
Another option would be to retitle (move) this article to "London season" or something like that. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 21:53, 27 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

Photo contradicts text

edit

Am I the only one who notices that the Ascot section says that women may not show bare shoulders, but the picture of the women at Ascot clearly shows a woman who is doing so? 24.185.57.182 (talk) 16:53, 3 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Globalize cleanup template

edit

I added the template because despite references to the American social season in the literature/pop culture section and the external links, there's no other detail about it. Nadhika99 (talk) 07:44, 23 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

London Season - Equestrianism

edit

Difficult to believe that Cheltenham racing (mid-March) or Grand National (has been in march but usually early April) is part of the London season. Neither have much in way of dress code in the way that Royal Ascot and Glorious Goodwood has. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brianatc (talkcontribs) 10:21, 24 July 2014 (UTC)Reply
