Some TKS events and parties (ie. THE GATE, Tokyo Fetish Ball..etc) have a strict dresscode! The dresscode is strictly enforced in order to maintain a safe, and exciting fantasy space for all of our guests.

As a basic guide, at dresscoded events, if you are comfortable wearing it to a normal nightclub or restaurant, then you probably cannot wear it at our events. For examples of appropriate clothing, please look at the photo gallery on this website for photos of guests taken in the seperate photo studio room (photos are not allowed in the party space) at previous THE GATE events.

If you do not meet the dresscode, you must then buy appropriate clothing at our entrance or you will be refused entry to the event. At each party, several people unfortunately arrive without proper clothes and then cannot enter. This is very regrettable, and the door staff cannot change policy when it happens!

So please follow the guide below carefully, so that you can enter and enjoy our events!
