One of my best friends is from Sweden and her graduation is
coming up soon! In Sweden, graduation is a BIG deal! On the day of the
graduation, girls usually wear white or light coloured dresses and guys wear black
or grey suits. The graduating class wears a white and black cap with their names written across it in gold letters.
In the morning of the big day, students and teachers have a “champagne
breakfast”. When school is over they literally run out of their classrooms (like
children), out the school building to the outside where
friends and family wait for them with flowers and posters. Student’s parents
usually hold up posters with baby photos of their kids. This is followed by formal lunch with speeches. After this, they change
into more comfortable clothes, get on a lorry/truck and parade around the city
blasting loud music, singing, dancing and spraying beer on each other. They then
arrive back at school and go home to Celebrate with friends and family. PS, they get gifts too!
Here are a few white dresses I thought would be great for
graduation:
