    This study is meant to investigate the extent at which the undergraduates in the faculty of Law Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) comply with the university approved dress code. It is meant to investigate the position of the school authority in ensuring that the dress code is adhered unto by the students in the legal training. A total of 200 students that were randomly selected across the class levels in the Faculty of Law, Obafemi Awolowo University constituted the sample for the study. A self designed question naira entitled “Law Students and Dress (LSDC)” was used to collect data for the study. The two hypotheses raised and tested using t-test statistics were accepted in their null form. Findings from the study indicated that both the male and female Law undergraduates manifested the same attitude to dress code. Also revealed by the study was that the law students were not different in their compliance levels despite the differences in the class levels. It was finally recommended that the university management, particularly the authorities of the Faculty of Law should emphasise more on the necessity to comply by introducing some “hard to bear consequences”.
