Rags to Riches

Students will dress their very best or very worst on the Wednesday of Homecoming week. Rags to Riches Day gives polar opposite dress options to students. Options include dressing as an affluent, flashy icon or a worn down, poorly-kept individual.

For an outfit for Riches, students need a white shirt, some transfer paper, some plastic chains and optional sunglasses or any flashy accessory.

Step 1 – Save a photo of a Gucci logo, and print it out onto transfer paper. Depending on what transfer paper you use, you will have specific instructions on how to make sure the logo comes out on the shirt correctly.

Step 2 – Acquire plastic chains and rings from the dollar store. Purchasing real chains and rings for this dress up day, while potentially unwise and expensive, still exists as an option. Wear an assortment of this jewelry on your hands and around your neck to flash your “wealth.”

Step 3 – You could stop at step two or even step one, however, if you want to add a little extra flash and glam, wear sunglasses or any other article or accessory that society recognizes as a portrayal of wealth. Glam yourself out and practice walking with swagger all day for your entrance to the dance on Saturday.
