Most people in the queue wore completely casual tourist clothes and I didn't see anyone being stopped or hassled.
A few other tips:
- Mobile phones are allowed in, though obviously no picture taking.
- The place to leave bags is the tourist information office on the opposite side of the road down the east side of the square. The fee is 5-20 Yuan depending on the size of your bag.
- Noon seems to be when they stop people joining the queue rather than when the mausoleum closes.
- My ID wasn't checked.
