Really? 'Cause I was thinking they were too formal. We didn't have a graduation, but they wanted us less formal at the dance. Definitely check with them. Also, is modesty an issue? While they're all beautiful, some look more like lingerie than dresses. I mean, it's an eighth grade dance. They might want you in something that at least covers your shoulders (or at least have straps that aren't spaghetti straps), and there might be a length requirement.
At the dance I went to, girls were being asked to put sweatshirts over their dresses if the administration didn't like them. (And by didn't like them, I mean, thought they were 'inappropriate', not 'that is one ugly dress!')
thanks guys.
and yah, my school's the same with laura's. we just wear slacks and a blouse for graduation and cocktail dresses for the dance. and i've seen the last four years 8th grade party pictures and those are the dresses they wear and none of the people i know have gotten in trouble.
i was thinking for number 1 as my favorite. a lot of people think i look good in maroon, purple, and dark green. so i'll probably go with the purple!![]()
Some of them seem a little hoochie mama to me. (4 and 7 look like nighties, while 9 looks like a beach cover up) I'd go with number 1, it's classy and feminine.
8th grade party is in May for us. It's basically after graduation, it's about 5 hours long in our school. Most of the people are starting to look at dresses and I found some online I like..just wanted you guys' opinions! Thanks!
