...new ECU Dress Code regulations apply. They are quite specific: regarding décolletés (in the US "cleavage")
The 2012 European Individual Women Chess Championship in Gaziantep became the first tournament where the ECU Regulations on Dress Code became available. Here are excerpts:
13.2 Dress rules for the players during the games
In general, players are required to follow the code of casual dressing which means:
•for men dress trousers or jeans, a long-sleeve or shirt-sleeve dress shirt, alternatively T-shirt or polo, loafers or dressy slip-ons, socks, shoes or sneakers (no beach-wear slips, etc.) and, if appropriate, a sport coat or blazer. The trousers, the jeans as well as the shirts and polo’s worn should be crisp and show no excessive wear, no holes and shall be free of body odor.
•for women blouses, turtleneck, T-shirts or polo’s, trousers, jeans or slacks, skirts, dresses, and appropriate footwear (boots, flats, mid-heel or high-heel shoes, sneakers with sock) or any other appropriate clothing modification.
•a jacket, vest or sweater, a scarf, as well as jewelry (earrings, necklace, etc.) coordinated to the outfit may be worn.
•the pieces of the clothing should be crisp, show no excessive wear, no holes and shall be free of body odor.
•in respect to shirts, the second from the top button may also be opened in addition to the very top button.
•sunglasses, glasses, neck ties can be worn during the games, no caps or hats, except for religious reasons.
•in general, this category of appearance demands a pulled-together, harmonious, complete look with colors, fabrics, shoes, and accessories, for both men and women.
•national costumes which fit into the generally accepted dress code and are not offensive or indecent to others can be worn
I thought this was rather amusing...the anti-cleavage rule. No rule on where the 2nd button is?? Call the fashion police.

Luckily(?) I seldom was on a high enough numbered board to be constantly aware.
