Orange Homecoming Dress
Orange is known for being the color of optimism and joy, but an orange Homecoming dress also meshes beautifully with Homecoming’s autumn backdrop.
Something lovely about orange Homecoming dresses is they come with a sense of versatility depending on your seasonal preference. A light breezy dress can call back to summer sunsets on the beach, or a brighter orange hue can nod to Halloween. Regardless, there’s an orange dress that will suit your personality.
If orange is one of your school’s team colors, you can accessorize your look with other school colors as a little nod to team spirit.
Light Orange Homecoming Dresses
A light orange Homecoming dress will stand out from the crowd because of its boldness, especially if you go for a brighter orange look. As we talked about, a more pastel orange – especially in loose, airy fabrics like chiffon – will give serious summer vibes.
Light orange looks will make warm undertones and dark hair pop in pictures. It may be easier for someone with cool undertones to find a light orange that they like on their skin,
Gold will always compliment an orange dress when it comes to your accessories, though some shades of orange will look great with silver or white. You may want to avoid black accessories, as the contrast can be distracting. If you’re looking to fully embody a Halloween vibe, though, try accessorizing with black, purple, or yellow.
Dark Orange Homecoming Dresses
Dark orange Homecoming dresses lean more into the fall vibes. If you eagerly count down the days to Halloween or you’ve always got a pumpkin spice latte or other treat on hand, dark orange might be your perfect Homecoming color.
Much like light orange, darker shades tend to be great for warm and neutral undertones. If your undertones are cool, though, don’t be afraid to try it anyway and see how it makes you feel! The most important thing is that your Homecoming look makes you feel confident and joyous.
When you’re choosing accessories for your dark orange dress, you can’t go wrong with gold or tan. For a streamlined look, go with shoes that match your skin tone or shoes that match your dress’s hue. If you want to pay homage to the fall atmosphere or Halloween, try accessories in red, black, or purple!
Short Orange Homecoming Dresses
Homecoming is traditionally a semi-formal event, so short dresses tend to be more popular than long gowns, but choosing orange will mean that you’ll likely stand out from the crowd.
For the most part, short Homecoming dresses will either have a form-fitting silhouette or a silhouette that flares away from your body, typically as an A-line. Tight dresses are great if you’re looking to exude maturity. On the other hand, a skirt with movement will move with you, creating a stunning effect on the dance floor.
If you’re planning on spending time outside taking pictures or hanging out with your friends at the Homecoming afterparty, there are plenty of ways to accessorize your short dress to stay warm! You can try opera gloves for a dose of glamour, tights, or find a fabulous coat that complements your look. Thicker fabric like velvet will also be on the warmer side!
Long Orange Homecoming Dresses
If you’re looking to go a little more formal with your Homecoming look, or you just like making an entrance, a long orange gown may be the way to go! You can embody autumn princess vibes and give off a romantic yet unique aura.
Much like with short dress options, long Homecoming dresses tend to be either form-fitting or more voluminous (particularly in the skirt.) Dresses that are less tight can range from being A-line and flowing slightly away from the body to being a full, dramatic ball gown, which will definitely turn heads in orange!
While long Homecoming dresses serve a little more formality than shorter dresses, they can be a little harder to dance in. A slit can make it easier to dance because it gives your legs a little more room. If you’re nervous about it, you can practice at home in your shoes – then you’ll be ready to tear up the dance floor!
