The homecoming dance and prom are the two most memorable dances in anyone’s high school experience. Wouldn’t you want to dress appropriately for the occasion and make a statement? For girls, their dresses are all creatively designed and made to make each girl feel unique and special. The guys however, do not have many options when it comes to formal fashion.

In the past, the generic and typical outfit for formalwear would consist of either a tuxedo or a plain button up shirt with a colored tie to match the girl’s dress along with a colored corsage to match as well. In recent years, guys haven’t been afraid to step out of the box and dress with as much creativity and uniqueness as the girl, which isn’t an issue at all.

If you aren’t really sure how exactly to dress for a formal occasion, but still make a statement, here are some tips:

  • Don’t be afraid to use colors
  • Using accessories can help (necklaces, rings, ties, bowties, etc.)
  • You don’t have to wear a tie, you can wear a bowtie if you prefer
  • Be confident when wearing your outfit
  • Be sure that you MATCH
  • Don’t use too much cologne or axe
  • Don’t wear jeans

Using these tips, make sure you look stylish for the homecoming dance and have a blast!
