Graduation outfits

Try On Your Graduation Outfit First

Your outfit shows at the neckline and below the hem of the gown, and it appears in many photos. Preview what you will wear before graduation day.

Dress for the gown and the photos

Under a graduation gown only your collar, sleeves and hem are likely to show, so those are useful details to plan before the ceremony.

Many people also want a second look for the celebration afterward. You can compare both on the same photo.

Graduation outfit tips

Think neckline and hem

The gown covers most of the outfit. Choose a neckline that sits well with the gown and a hem that does not peek out unevenly.

Pick breathable fabrics

Ceremonies can be long and warm. Lighter fabrics under a gown are easier to wear all day.

Plan a second outfit

Try a dressier look for dinner or a party and see how it reads next to your ceremony outfit.

How to preview a graduation outfit

  • Upload a front-facing photo

    A straight-on photo shows how the neckline and top will look at the collar.

  • Add your options

    Try the dress, shirt or suit you are weighing, plus a backup.

  • Choose for the day

    Keep the look that works for both the ceremony and your photos.

What to try on for graduation

Blazers

A blazer can lift almost any outfit, if the cut works for you. Preview blazers on your photo and see how they look over what you already wear.
