Should Dress Making Companies make non-regulation dresses, if the customer has asked for a dress to conform to these rules and it does not do so, there could be a legal claim for Breach of Contract against the dressmaker if the dress was found to not comply with the BDC Rules.

There have been complaints that in some competitions/championships the rules are not being properly applied and adhered to. Organisers, adjudicators and chairman of adjudicators are required to uphold the rules laid down in the rulebook, competitors infringing the rules may result in disqualification.

Please be aware that the rules will be enforced and that everyone must accept their responsibilities.
