Business casual is a kind of dress code, as in "a set of rules stating the manner of dress (at a school, office, etc.)", so business casual is already enough. Because this casual would refer to the whole set of rules. Another way to interpret dress code is "the customary style of dress of a specified group." | |

Just casual, not business casual. And if casual is a noun, what does it mean? If it means an informal article of clothing, then it should be business casuals in the above sentence or similar ones.
