Grant Parish Dress Code: What Female Visitors Should Wear for Video Visits
Setting up a video visit with someone at Grant Parish Detention Center? Dress code rules still apply—even from home. Here's what you need to know to avoid getting your visit cut short.
Shorts must be worn in good taste and can't be higher than just above the knees. When in doubt, go with the longer pair.
Tip: Check your shorts length while standing - not just sitting in front of a mirror. "Just above the knees" is where Grant Parish draws the line.
Dresses can't be shorter than the natural break of your knee. Keep that in mind when picking your outfit.
The same rule applies to slits and cuts. A dress might look knee-length overall, but if there's a slit - front or back - it still needs to meet the requirement.
Note: Check both the hemline and any slits. Grant Parish applies the "natural break of the knee" rule to the entire dress, cuts included.
Skip the sunglasses. Grant Parish doesn't allow them at any point during your visit.
All visits may be monitored or recorded. Keeping your face clearly visible helps avoid unnecessary issues.
Practical Tips
- ✓ Choose bottoms that land at or just above the knee so you’re not guessing on length
- ✓ If you’re wearing a dress, pick one that hits at the knee and avoid slits/cuts that ride up when you move
- ✓ Lay your outfit out the night before and do a quick stand/sit test to see how it looks on camera
- ✓ Keep a backup option nearby (like longer shorts or a knee-length skirt) so you can change quickly if needed
- ✓ Take off sunglasses before the visit starts and keep them off the entire time
Quick check before you log on: Shorts no higher than just above the knees. Dresses no shorter than the natural break of the knee (slits included). No sunglasses.
