Stand out! A stylish roundup of graduation ceremony outfits for moms

wide pants suit

For the graduation ceremony, how about choosing something a bit different this time—a wide-leg pantsuit? It flatters the figure, is functional, and can create a more feminine look than you might expect.

If you pay attention to the jacket length, you can also achieve a leg-lengthening effect.

It’s a great option if you don’t want to wear the same thing as other moms.

That said, some people feel pantsuits can seem less formal, so in that case, adding a corsage or pearls is a good idea.

A must-see for curvy women! Mom outfits

[For 70kg Curvy] Outfit Ideas for Curvy Moms for Graduation and Entrance Ceremonies [Also Great for School Visits and Office Wear]

When I tried to put on the formal suit I used to wear… no way, it doesn’t fit.

Many moms may have had that experience, right? As we age, it becomes harder to lose weight, and before we know it, our body shape changes.

If you want to hide a fuller figure as much as possible, I think choosing items that don’t cling to the body line, like blouses, collarless jackets that make the neckline look neat, and pants made of stretch fabric, will help cover the areas you’re concerned about.

Wearable as everyday outfits, too! Coordination for graduation and entrance ceremonies

Wearable as everyday outfits, too! Coordination for graduation and entrance ceremonies

Ceremonial outfits for graduation and entrance ceremonies often end up being worn only once, and a few years later the styles change, which can feel wasteful.

So here are some formal pieces you can repurpose for both occasions.

For graduation, prioritize a dignified look and warmth.

For the entrance ceremony, switch up the inner blouse or add a corsage to bring in a touch of festivity.

Refined pieces like a linen-rayon dress are especially nice, since they can be styled in everyday outfits too!

Graduation style with a white jacket

Look like a style pro! Graduation and entrance ceremony outfits with a white jacket

At graduation ceremonies, most people tend to play it safe with black or dark navy formal wear.

However, dark suits can often come across as somber.

If you make good use of a white jacket, it adds a touch of glamour and instantly catches the eye while still feeling grounded, creating a clean and cool impression.

The pairing of a large scarf and a pearl necklace is stylish too—definitely something to borrow for inspiration.

Combining a navy bow-tie blouse with a white jacket also leaves a great impression.

A white jacket brightens the face and is recommended for those aiming for a more elevated sense of style.

Looks expensive! Budget-friendly outfit

[Shimamura, UNIQLO, GU] Eight polished mom outfits for graduation and entrance ceremonies—all under a 10,000-yen budget!

Speaking of graduation ceremonies, I think ceremony suits are the mainstream choice.

But they do cost a fair amount, don’t they? And you only wear them once or twice a year.

Many people probably feel torn, thinking, “I wear the same thing every time, but buying a new one… hmm.” In times like that, affordable, budget-friendly outfits you can easily swap in are recommended.

Even under 10,000 yen, you can find clothes that look perfectly polished.

Since they’re budget-friendly, you won’t feel wasteful—you can just wear them as everyday outfits after the ceremony!

Mix-and-match outfits for moms in their fortiesNEW!

If you buy a classic-style ceremony suit, you can wear it for years, but the clothes you wore in your twenties can start to feel too short in the skirt length or too youthful in design once you’re in your thirties.

In that case, it might be good to update just the pieces you’re concerned about, like a blouse or a dress.

Even if you keep the same jacket, simply switching the dress to a maxi length will let you attend ceremonies with confidence.

Replacing an entire ceremony suit can be expensive, so make the most of what you can mix and match!
