Dear Parents and Students:
Welcome to Walton Chorus! My name is Michelle Dobo, and I am the uniform chair for the choral department. Below are the uniform requirements for the chorus program which must be purchased by 8/25/23 to ensure they are received and properly tailored in time for the first concert in October.
On August 8 at 6:30 PM, we will have our Mandatory Annual Parent Meeting (in person in the Walton Theater) where we will display the chorus attire, and I can answer any additional questions on uniforms.
Students are required to wear the official Walton Chorus uniform to each chorus concert. Concerts do serve as a performance grade, so it is vital this payment be made by the deadline of 8/25/23 to ensure student success.
If your family is experiencing financial difficulties, please contact me as soon as possible at michelledobo@gmail.com or (404) 429-7355 to discuss other resources we have available to ensure your child is properly outfitted for concerts. We have several gently used dresses and tuxedos that have been donated by previous chorus members upon graduation for this purpose, and we are happy to help. Also, you do not have to be in financial difficulty to have a gently used uniform. We have an extensive gently used inventory and can usually outfit many students for free or reduced price.

The additional a la carte items (dress only, shoes only, garment bag only, pearls only) are included as options for those students who have already procured one or more of the uniform pieces from a previous student, and therefore will not need to order the entire uniform package. If this situation applies to you, please notify me by email at michelledobo@gmail.com .

Ordering and Payment Instructions for Tenor/Bass Uniform:
For more information on the different uniform options, please visit our 2023-2024 Uniform Information Page Walton Chorus Uniform Information
There are two options for the tuxedo:
- Tenor and Bass chorus members may purchase their tuxedo (Choice #1) through our vendor, Bel Fiore in the Woodlawn Shopping Center https://www.belfiorebridal.com/ . Cost is $175.00 (plus tax), no later than 9/1/23. (Includes pants, jacket, shirt, tie, and garment bag. Alterations are at an additional cost) See the attached flyer. You may drop in at any time on Wednesdays to get fitted. Otherwise, please contact Bel Fiore for a fitting appointment. 770 509-7185.
- Sue Jones, 4sue@bellsouth.net or 404 518-6793, a seamstress who has been hemming for Walton Chorus for many years, charges $15 to hem pants. However, you may use whomever you like for this.
- If a student already owns a black tuxedo they may use it instead of purchasing, but will need the Walton specific tie from Bel Fiore.
- If the student wants Choice #2, they will need to be fitted by me and not Bel Fiore. Please email me (michelledobo@gmail.com ) so I know to arrange the fitting appointment during their chorus class period.
- For Choice #2 – Please do not try to pay until we have fitted your child and determined a price
- Please allow time for alterations prior to the first concert.
Tenor and Bass students must also provide their own black dress shoes and black dress socks.
