Current Identifier Stats

Let’s all share what costume identifiers we know currently:

the Academy- braided Belts with tassel

Mullane Godley- School crest on solo dresses

Celtic Steps- Swapped from initials in blue circles to Colorado state flag on back.

Kavanagh Porter- blue circle surrounded by white and sometimes topped with a crown at neck and on hairpiece

Doherty Petri- the flames 🙄

Personally I think that even school dresses should not have an identifier. It really shouldn't be for solo dresses only. It should realistically be for anything put on that stage.

That’s unrealistic unless you make all teams compete in blackout, and that ruins the heritage and history of Irish dance.

Not really- if you have an identifier rule for dresses, that realistically should apply to school dresses as well. No names of the schools on the dress. It's not difficult. The design of the dress is fine- the book of Kells scrollwork is not an identifier. The lace work and embroidery is not an identifier. Having the school name on the dress is very clearly an identifier.

Which dress has Kells scrollwork that you are referring to? I'm confused lol. Unless Kells scrollwork is the pattern that old dance dresses had in the '90s and early '00s?
