teachermom2834 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 What is the trend for those of you that have or know kids going to homecoming (and see pics on social media). Here it seems that the wrist corsage has fallen off in favor of the bouquet. It is pretty in pictures but then what do you do with it all night? Take it with you to the dance? Send home with parents? Leave it in the car? One mom said she thought the girls posed for pics and then just left them in the car. Some do still go with the wrist corsage here but the girls who are fashion forward are the bouquets. And do the girls still buy the guy a boutonnière and pin it on the jacket lapel? Here not all the guys wear jackets but honestly probably most of the boys who come with a date are wearing a jacket. My dd is going with a date to homecoming. She is in 10th and most of her friends have not really started going with dates yet and her older friends are not the most experienced either. So just asking her friends isn’t the best option. I feel very disconnected from current trends! For the record we are planning on the traditional boutonnière and just trying to figure out what to do with a bouquet of flowers if that is what her date goes with. Just wondering what I don’t know about this that I should. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethel Mertz Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 We’re potentially dealing with the same question on the college level (if DS actually gets up the nerve to ask the young woman). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairiewindmomma Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Are you in Texas? Their trends are very different than most of the nation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teachermom2834 Posted September 10, 2023 Author Share Posted September 10, 2023 No not Texas! I know that is it’s own thing. We are in southeast TN. I would categorize it more if a SEC school sorority type culture - though that my dd doesn’t really fit that profile it is the vibe of our region.

Pippen Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 A florist in your town would be a good resource for local trends. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
