How To Dress To Impress at Homecoming

With homecoming on the way, students often ask the infamous question, “What do I wear to the dance?” Though it may be on Saturday , it’s not too late to plan your homecoming look.

What are you looking for while you're shopping? For homecoming, those interested in wearing dresses usually go with a shorter dress option. However, some students wear longer dresses that provide more coverage and comfort for dancing. “When I go shopping I look for something that is comfortable to dance in and makes me feel confident.” says Samantha Medendorp, a senior. For men, suits are most common at homecoming. However, khakis, polos, and sweaters can be worn as well. This dance follows a semi-formal dress code.

The Crossroads Mall has many places for students to purchase suits and dresses. Stores such as Macy’s or JCPenny provide many options for suit and tie combinations, as well as many different styles of dresses. These stores also offer dress shoes for both men and women. For students wearing heels or other open toed shoes, they may want to change into tennis shoes for the dance floor.

If you are looking for a budget-friendly option, Macy's currently has a large selection of dresses on sale for homecoming. For suits, there are places that offer rentals in Crossroads, as well as places nearby such as Suits U MensWear.

Homecoming is a great time to get together with friends and show off your style. We can’t wait to see what you wear on Saturday!
