Well, it
usually depends on the dress code of the occasion. Unless you
are dancing outside, the weather has little bearing on this since you
will soon get hot dancing although it may be a good idea to bring a
jumper/fleece to put on afterwards to prevent you cooling down to
quickly.
Ceilidh dancing can be extremely strenuous and so most people will opt
to wear as little as possible. Thin, loose and light layers are usually
the order of the day. Footwear varies from trainers to light pumps and
sandals although these leave the toenails dangerously exposed to the
boots of keen but not accurate dancers! Certainly high heels are not
recommended as they dont offer any ankle support.
Many people enjoy dancing in bare feet but these can become blistered
and depending on the dancing surface, splintered with wood or broken
glass.
