Las Madrinas

[edit]

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.

[edit]

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]
