Graduations, what to wear?

Graduations are academic, and almost always during the day.










Color is great for any spring event, but your dress should also reflect respect for the institution. The level of dress should be somewhere between cocktail and business

• It is spring and it is easy for the feminine style to go overboard with pinks and florals, this may not work for the academic environment of a graduation.


Tone it down a bit with solids or subtle prints in fabric that moves. Try a sweater set with a floral skirt and classic shoes with a bow or flower detail.

• The Dramatic Style should keep the graduation look simple but soft. Try a chic sheath dress with some pattern, black or nude pumps and a statement necklace. If the event is outdoors, a statement hat may also be appropriate and very chic.

• Staying conservative enough for a graduation may also be tough on the Creative style. Think suit with a twist. A really unusual Jacket paired with dress trousers and a simple shirt may be perfect. Then the creativity can come out in the accessories!
