What to wear to graduation.
Whether you are crossing the stage or cheering from the seats, graduation calls for something polished you can sit in for hours — and walk across a stage in.

For the graduate
Think about the gown
A dress or top that is lightweight and short enough to sit under the gown works best; the neckline will show, so choose one you love.
Shoes you can walk in
Block heels, wedges or elegant flats — stages have steps.
Photos last forever
Solid colors and simple prints photograph well.
For guests
Smart casual is safe
A sundress, a midi skirt and blouse, or tailored trousers with a nice top.
Outdoor ceremonies
Breathable fabrics, a hat or sunglasses, and shoes that won’t sink into grass.
