What is the homecoming dance like??

What are you supposed to wear to a homecoming dance?

  • I go to a catholic school, and my dad thinks that I'm supposed to dress into one of those suits that take a week to get tailored, even though the admission for one student was $7.50. For a private school, what would be the appropriate attire for a homecoming dance? Unless I know, my dad will keep fussing at me.

  • Answer:

    Usually a homecoming dance is a semi-formal affair and yes, the boys usually wear a nice suit and the girls usually go out and buy a nice dress...usually too nice! If you do have a date, you should also buy her a corsage...go with a wrist corsage though, so that she doesn't have to hold it all night! you should get yourself a flower to pin to yourself too! I would check with your date or with the school personnel if you are not sure...things might have changed over the years!

I would wear nice slacks and a dressy shirt. You dont need a whole tailored suit. If its a smaller school and private. Or being held at the school there is no need to get over dressed. Ask what your date will be wearing and go from there.

for homecoming dances you should wear a collard shirt a tie and black or blue pants (whichever you prefer im not here to judge and i don't judge) also a belt and some nice shoes but not the ones where you step in them and you automatically lose like .5 liters of your blood

i went to a catholic school and all of our dances there were no jeans allowed. i think if you wear a nice pair of pants with a nice shirt and tie that would be more than enough. you could probably even get by with wearing khaki pants and a polo shirt. no tennis shoes though. i don't think you need a fancy expensive suit. tell your dad that you are saving him money -- but if it makes him feel better have him give you the cash anyways.

I dunno, but try a casual blazer and t shirt. Maybe designer jeans.

I go to a public school, so it all really depends on your specific school and the fancyness of your homecoming. I'd say the best bet is something like a dress shirt (collared, buttons) and khakis. I'd ask an older student who has been to HC at your school, though. They'd know best.
