Homecoming Dress Style Tips #1: Semi-Formal means Dressy but Not Over the Top

“Semi-formal” does not mean jeans and a cute top. It does mean a pretty dress. It also means comfort. You want to have a great time dancing and hanging out, not tugging at an uncomfortable outfit.

Yes, a skirt and top would be OK, but a short, pretty & affordable dress is the best choice.

 

Homecoming Dress Style Tips #2: Choose a Knee-Length Dress

Long dresses are lovely, so if your Homecoming dance is more formal – or if you’re going to a fancy college homecoming – then long is fine.

But usually, Homecoming dances are more relaxed, so a cute knee length or above the knee dress is perfect.

 

Homecoming Dress Style Tips #3: Pick Fall & Winter Colors

Homecoming happens in autumn, so you definitely want to switch out your summer color scheme.

You can choose dark fall colors like brown, black or rust. White, ivory & metallic dresses are also perfect.

And of course, you can always use Homecoming as the excuse to buy this year’s Little Black Dress!

We know you hate to give up your summer tank tops & shorts, but by Homecoming, you’ll be way too cold! But that doesn’t mean you have to choose a long-sleeve dress.

Just top your dress with a pretty sweater, a classy jacket, or even a dressy shawl. You can stash them safely once you get inside.
