Such a weird response.

It's her event, she should wear whatever makes her happy, no what makes me happy. I would encourage her to try both options before making her final choice.

I did. I met her halfway though, and insisted on a tailored women's suit. We got it and shell type shirt at Zara. She wore kitten heel type pumps. I took her for a blowout and she did her makeup.

I saw some HoCo pics from yesterday and there are girls with their boobs hanging out. Slutty fer sur.

She didn’t even look good and she has a dog face. Can’t believe her mom let her out like that.

Wear the suit. I’m sure it’s more tasteful and classy.

Two girls in my high school did this in the 80's as well.

New poster....my DD also wants to wear a suit to HC. I was looking at them online and they do not seem to be what I think she is imagining. They were one-shoulder, low cut, etc. For those whose DDs wore suits, can you send a link to what the suit looked like?

There are so many girls wearing suits to homecoming and to the prom these days no one would care. A nice suit looks better than some of the ill fitted and skanky dresses that some girls wear. Also, suits are more comfortable to wear. Yes, I would let my daughter wear a suit to homecoming.

Sure. My oldest DD wore a dress to homecoming and a suit to prom. She looked great ... and got *tons* of compliments from boys and girls.

I also love the trend of girls wearing sneakers with dresses


How can you dance in a sneaker? They are designed to grip.

Huh? Is this a real question? Dancing in sneakers is more comfortable, arguably, safer. Let's normalize not deforming our feet and legs to fit misogynistic beauty standards.


Oh dear gawd, thank you. So much this.

So I wonder if this question means something more, and wearing the suit is a big step (different from a girls wear dressy pants and a sequined top because she doesn’t like dresses).


You are legitimately intellectually challenged.

Both nights were rainy, gloomy and cold so she felt better than she would have in a dress and heels. She’s not gay but has a lot of gender fluid friends. This generation is less strict about gender roles and androgynous fashion is ok.


Dress suits for women have been popular forever. They were in in the 40s and common after Annie Hall came out, I had 2 beautiful 3 piece suits I wore to high school in the 70s.

I love that kids are more open to dressing how they want instead of sticking to the same old same old.

I think those of you who would be upset if your daughter didn't wear a traditional dress are less intelligent than the rest of us.

Let her wear what she wants. It’s her HOCO.

Tons of girls will be wearing suits as well. It’s fairly common these days.
