As a mom of a senior guy from the class of 2023, I know exactly what your son needs to have a memorable photo experience. I also have the answer to your number one question… what outfits for senior guys do you recommend?
Wardrobe Tips for Senior Guys
1. FIND SOMETHING DRESSY.
Don’t be afraid to wear that suit with a buttoned up shirt! A tie would be great, but if you would prefer to make it a little less dressy, leave the tie at home. Pay attention to the shoes you choose and the socks too. When you sit your socks will show so make sure they coordinate well with your suit. And if you prefer not to wear the suit, consider a dark pair of navy blue jeans and a sports coat. That look is dressy enough too!
2. BRING SOMETHING CASUAL
Casual outfits for senior guys vary. You can do a pair of jeans with your favorite t-shirt and your favorite pair of sneakers. Some senior guys choose casual outfits that may include a pair of khaki pants and a polo shirt or a buttoned down shirt. Whatever you decide make sure to pay attention to the shoes. Leave the old pair of sneakers at home. Choose the perfect boat shoes, boots, or dressy sandals to go with the casual outfit you choose.
3. SENIOR GUY OUTFITS THAT SHOWS YOUR SCHOOL SPIRIT
Senior guys love to wear their school shirt and their letterman jacket. Any of those items paired with a nice pair of jeans is a great outfit for senior guys. Also, consider wearing part of a uniform from you sports team such as a jersey or cap. Don’t forget to bring the sports ball to add to the outfit. Either way you go, showing your school spirit is a fun thing to do during your photo session.
4. REMEMBER THE ACCESSORIES
Yes… senior guys can also include accessories to any of the outfits they choose for their senior photos. Consider wearing your favorite jewelry (if you wear any) or a hat to add a splash to the outfit. A nice watch is a good addition to any outfit for senior guys. Even a pair of headphones is an added touch to a casual outfit.
