If your school has white grad gowns then I would choose a white sun dress (most people do wear a about knee length sundress type thing) Then heels or dress sandals.
I actually wore dark denim skinny jeans and black heels (was the only one with jeans but people said it worked really well) So if you aren't a dress person like me you can do that. |

dont go for the first one, that will definitely see through (though its a cute dress)
Cause I have a white graduation gown too, The dark blue might be a tad sketchy. I would stick with white or some tone of a light colour imo The white material on graduation dresses are thin |

Honestly go for a dress that you will wear more then once don't concentrate on the whole white aspect. Every dress posted so far would be fine.

oh okay :)
would any of those dresses i posted be good with heels? and would curling my hair be good? maybe that way it'll look like its dressed up instead of being sorta casual like it's just a regular day? |

Then curl it. Just keep your hat in mind. Since it's inside you don't have to worry about wind/grass or any of that nonsense. You are really free to do what you want.

Oh my goodness, it's not prom. Just throw on a light-coloured dress, make sure your hair looks presentable, put on a bit of makeup, heels and call it a day.
Girls, bah. |

As others have said, just wear a light-colored sundress, preferably one that doesn't have a brightly colored/patterned bottom part. Most of the ones you posted have torsos that are okay; it's just the bottom halves that are too bright. |

What colour is your cap and gown? Ours is white...which is probably why Uso is picking out lighter colours. But if yours is a darker colour than the brighter dresses might work.

I remember there being a fair amount of girls wearing bright ones, though. |
