The color of your graduation dress is an important decision for several reasons. For one all the photos that will be taken. Make sure you love that dress and color because you'll have to look at it 5, 10, 20 years down the road in photographs.

What Does Each Dress Color Represent?

If you wear a White dress, this is "the perfect color dress to choose for graduation as you prepare for life after college. Not only that, but it’s a timeless shade that will match lots of other colors, so it certainly won’t clash with your robe."

A Black dress "can be paired with so many other colors, leaving you with plenty of options when it comes to picking your accessories."

To make a statement, wear a Pink dress which is "bound to turn some heads, and it’s the perfect way for law majors in particular to say goodbye in true Elle Woods style."

A Gold dress will impress if you have warm skin tones and "paired with a black graduation robe, the color combination will create a luxurious aesthetic."

Wear a Red dress if you "want to appear confident," according to the survey by Karen Millen.

It’s interesting to see the variety of colors that students are searching for, and it’s useful to know to help you prepare for the day - whether you want to stay on-trend and select a popular color, or perhaps go against the grain and choose something unique. -KarenMillen.com
