Dresscode & Gear

In case of any doubt, please check the reference document

Fauntastic’s relaxed dress code evolves every year to adapt to the feedback and sensibilities of participants. However, a common base remains, testifying to our desire for inclusion and freedom of expression. So, depending on the schedule, you’ll come across the following:
– Puphoods
– Latex outfits
– Petsuits
– Collars, handcuffs and other accessories

Like last year, the following are allowed all day long:

  • Every types of animal heads (fursuits, pup hoods, masks made out of vinyl, silicone,

rubber)

  • Every types of harnesses, when worn over clothing or fursuits
  • Every types of tails attached by a strap (aka “show tails”)

On top of that, after 22:00, we also allow:

  • Bodysuits made out of lycra / spandex (petsuits), rubber, neoprene, etc.
  • Other fetish accessories: cuffs, etc.

If you observe any inappropriate behavior or misbehavior, please inform a staff member or volunteer immediately. Your safety and comfort are our priority, and we will take the necessary steps to resolve any problems quickly and efficiently.

If you’re not comfortable wearing gear, we encourage you to attend events where the relaxed dress code is not in force, or to use the gear-free areas. You can also speak to a member of staff to express your concerns and receive advice on spaces and times that would suit you best.

Gear is not inherently NSFW (Not Safe For Work). At Fauntastic, we make a distinction between gear used for personal expression and that with a sexual connotation. We have strict rules to ensure that gear presented in public remains appropriate and respectful for all participants.

If your gear is not listed, please contact the organization to clarify its compatibility with the relaxed dress code. We are open to discussions and adjustments to ensure the comfort of all participants.

We recommend that you change in your rooms.

We allow gear at Fauntastic because it allows participants to express themselves fully and immerse themselves in their anthropomorphic characters. Gear is an integral part of furry culture, allowing everyone to feel free to be the animal they wish to be.
This inclusion enriches the convention experience and reinforces the sense of community and belonging.

If you feel unwell, please contact a staff member or volunteer immediately.
They will assist you and guide you to a suitable area to rest or receive care.

Similar to the Dealer’s Den, the fursuit lounge is a space where gear access is restricted for reasons of safety and the comfort of other participants.

No, hoods, like fursuits, are forbidden in the DD (Dealer’s Den) for two main reasons:
– For safety reasons, we want participants in the DD not to be restricted in their field of vision and hearing.
– Some artists may feel uncomfortable not being able to see who they are interacting with or in the presence of hoods. In order to respect these sensitivities, we prohibit hoods in the DD, as well as fursuits, as we feel they don’t add value to the DD experience, which is first and foremost about art.
