The 20s are a time of changes, most of them focused on maturing, although it is also time to choose the homecoming suit. At this stage, some of the most significant moments are the entrance to the working world, for some it also includes getting married and for the fewest, becoming parents. In addition to this, the style will also be modified, leaving aside the casual -casual- college dress, to give way to a phase where business casual -even the suit- are part of the day to day.

For the vast majority at this point in life, the suit is a little-known friend. We may have previously worn it to a religious ceremony or for an extremely formal presentation. But the real encounter, where it will have a greater relevance, will be at our graduation. Whether we are trying to make a good impression, which shows how professional we look wearing the suit or simply use it as a key piece to finally tell us to talk to our career crush. The graduation suit will become a look that we will remember for a long time, these are the keys you should follow to look like a dandy the day you say goodbye to the student life and welcome the professional world.

Tailor-made homecoming suit

It is important to keep in mind that the suit we use for graduation will surely be used in other situations, ie; for job interviews, weddings, etcetera. That is why we recommend the option of having a bespoke suit, also known as made-to-measure. Some of the options in Mexico are Welton & Sons, Havoc and Morera Grosso, which can be adapted to the budget of a twenty-something. Making a good investment will always be worth it, this is a piece of advice you should not forget from now on.

Tuxedo or suit for homecoming? 

Most of the time the invitation will indicate the dress code. If it says strict etiquette, it will undoubtedly have to be a tuxedo. The difference between a tuxedo and a single breasted suit lies in the following aspects. The tuxedo will provide greater formality, the jacket may be velvet, the lapels will be round and silk and will have a single button. The pants will have a braid (a strip that runs along the outer seam of the pants). Finally, the shirt is accompanied by a bow-tie, tuxedo or bow tie. Don't forget! A tuxedo is not worn during the day and much less for a job interview.

The graduation suit will become a look you will remember for a long time.

What color for the homecoming suit?

If you want to go for a look that goes with the vintage 70's mood you could go for a pastel colored suit like blue or lilac, all very much in the style of Gucci. We know, it's a risky look that will only suit those students of fashion and design. The safe bet, correct, infallible and that will always make you look good, will be the black color. Whether in tuxedo or suit, the bet for the dark color will be the right one. 

If you want to stand out from the rest, get a red homecoming suit from Hockerty.

The accessories for your homecoming outfit

Having mastered the theme of the suit, finally, the accessories that will accompany it are missing. The basics that should not be missing are tie, shoes, socks, cufflinks and watch. We know, the list may sound long, but there is no great complication.

The tie, look for it to be in a neutral tone and thin; on the other hand, if you decide to wear a bow-tie, opt for one that already has the bow tie made, otherwise it will be a nightmare to do it. The shoes will be black and lace-up, accompanied by long socks with a discreet design. Finally, jewelry; if you decide to consecrate your image wearing a cufflinks shirt, opt for a simple design in silver or gold. As for watches, wear one that is up to the occasion (leather strap, analog, hands), if you do not have one like this, surely your dad can lend you one.
