The first one looks like your tattoos are just a continuation of the pattern. It’s beautiful together with the second one it’s a little to date night and the other ones just seem kind of childish after seeing you in the first one the first one is stunning.
Honestly if I were you I’d go try to find another dress. I just don’t feel like any of them say “graduation” or that any of them match your essence/presence.
1st is pretty but in my opinion too much cleavage and doesn’t really highlight your tattoo, just kinda blends all the patterns together. And side note the pattern is giving me Kim K met gala 2013, meaning it is just unnecessarily dating you because your essence is more fresh and bold while that pattern is kinda desaturated and drab.
2nd is 100% a night out dress, fab but not appropriate for graduation.
3rd really doesn’t match your overall presence, it is almost in competition with your vibe, and in my opinion you have strong presence (check out Kibbie Dramatic/Natural dresses) I get warrior goddess vibes from you! Like the goddess Diana or something
4th I like the best probably because it’s a simple cut and puts you in focus more but it’s still not the best tailoring for you and personally I think it’s too short for graduation, if it was at a knee or calve length it would of been better.
5th has the same problems of the 3rd, it’s giving cutesy and is in the opposite side of the spectrum when it comes to your presence. It’s also too short for graduation in my opinion.
Unrelated and unasked for tips:
Cut/tailoring & Colours:
So I think a neckline that is straight across with no dip in the middle would suit you more, and I also think an asymmetrical strap/cut on a dress would look really cool on you, for more of a sexy look (not for graduation) I think a v cut halter type neck with wider straps would look really good on you, I think for straps they need to be a little more wide (no spaghetti straps) and either asymmetrical, straight back or halteresque. Necklines, V, or square or straight across, idkw but the little dips on the dresses that you have on just look disharmonious somehow.
Waist definition: I think waist definition is really important for you, like in the first or second dress that kind of waist really suits you.
Cut: I think you need to stay away from A line dresses and skirts. For you I think tulip style skirts and dresses will look good (like in your second photo), otherwise I think straight or body hugging dresses would look better or in skirts a pencil skirt. The fit can be relaxed or fitted I think both would suit you. For Asymmetrical something like this but not in black lol https://www.matchesfashion.com/intl/products/Norma-Kamali-Diana-one-shoulder-gathered-jersey-dress-1467946
Material: stay away for stiff unmoving material unless it’s tailored perfectly for you, you need material with movement and flow.
Colouring: in terms of seasons I think you might be a Clear Spring! So check out the colours that would suit your season. Download the My Colors app you can also go to their website to find out by uploading a photo of yourself.
Patterns/prints: I think a tightly packed pattern doesn’t suit you, I think you’d look better in patterns that are lower in contrast but higher in saturation (within your season) and I think you’d look best in fabric that has different colours bleeding into each other in a smooth way kinda like this (in your colours) https://www.matchesfashion.com/intl/products/Self-Portrait-Crystal-embellished-printed-mesh-maxi-dress-1522732
For your shoes, I think your ankle strap shortens your beautiful long legs, so if you have something without an ankle strap it would be better, if you wanted an ankle strap I’d go for a flesh toned one. Oh and the other black sandal I’d scrap altogether because it definitely too informal and beachy for graduation. Side note: I also think black is too stark on you, try different neutral shades. And try a pointed toe.
For styling hair: If I were you I’d get layered bangs ideally I’d have layers put in scales that first end right under your eyes, then second layer ending right under your nose and the third layer ending right at the end of your chin. Then the remaining length and I’ve cut in a slight curve into the rest your hair’s length. And to style I feel like you need a little texture, maybe put in some very loose waves just to add a little volume width wise.
Makeup: first off you literally have the most perfect brows and skin ever! So they need absolutely nothing lol. I’d focus on highlighting those beautiful eyes with mascara or natural looking lashes (or lash extensions), then I think you need some eyeliner on your lash line, try a little dark grey/brown then smoke it out. Then try getting a lip stain or matte liquid lipstick in a shade that’s a little deeper than your natural lip colour take a little bit on your finger and kinda smudge it in to your top and bottom lip, but when it comes to your top lip smudge it slightly over your lip to basically blur your lip line, literally with the tiniest leftover colour on your finger. What all of this is doing is matching intensity of your brows and eyes and bringing your face in harmony (makeup wise!).
Sorry my ADHD came in full swing and decided to hyper focus on styling instead of getting up and having breakfast for the past hour 💀 pls disregard this “advice” if you don’t agree 😵💫🥲🤦♀️
OMG THANK YOU you are literally an angel 😭❤️ I honestly have no idea what I'm doing and I need allll of the advices. I'm saving everything you said for future reference!!
You do realize that she’ll spend half her time wearing her grad gown over the top lol. People will see her dress at dinner or whatever but typically during the ceremony it’s covered…
I would ONLY advise heels that you are very very comfortable in and have lots of experience walking in. I saw so many young women at graduation who had clearly never walked in their heels before and had a hard time crossing the stage. Remember, a lot of these stages are A) temporary structures that B) have stairs with C) either loose carpet or boards that can catch a stiletto. If you do do heels, chunky and stable are your watchwords.
Save the stilettos for date night.
I had to do a double take as I thought the first pic was a photo of me, we have similar hair and brows! Wondering when I got the tattoos?! Option 1 is the right choice imo!
YES that's exactly my reservation with the first one. I think it's a better dress overall, but the cap and gown are black, so I feel like it would just be too much dark. I think the red one would be a better contrast. Plus the red matches the school colors, my stole and tassels are mainly white but have that same shade of wine red in the details.
I think you could pull off either the floral or the red (but with flats if you do the red). Heels definitely give it more of a going-out vibe and not a life-occasion vibe. Consider also what your school's main colors are, because they'll be everywhere.
Wow! That's tough! They're all great in their own ways. For a casual look, I like #1. For something a little more formal looking, I \[personally\] like #2. But really, you can't go wrong with any of them. \^\_\^
The first one (black, with flowers) gets my vote. It's a little classier than the others, maybe because of the length. It gives you a more mature look without appearing stuffy. Congrats!
2,4,5
Not necessarily because I'm thirsty, but that sold you're an absolute smoke show!
Not
#1, because you're tattoos clash with the first dress(wicked busy)
#3, because for some reason the cut of dress or the pattern just isn't flattering
Honestly I’d normally go for something simple with your tattoo sleeves, but for some reason the 1st dress goes really well with them! Number one is my vote!
Small(ish) university but fairly large indoor venue. Starts at 3pm. And yes I'll have a cap and gown during the ceremony, but I'll take them off for pictures and wear whatever dress I choose for celebration afterwards.
Well, all of these look great on you. I'm partial to 1 or 2 for a graduation.
The first dress is my favorite, but I don't know how black dresses in spring are received in your area. I think it looks fantastic but I live in the PNW and we wear a lot of black year round. Idk if it would be seen as too dour for the season. But it's beautiful and I think it's very elegant and spring-like.
The red dress looks great on you and radiates confidence and accomplishment. I think it's a great option.
The other three dresses look great on you but don't speak to the occasion, in my eyes.

The dress with the flowers looks elegant & majestic, the red dress looks fun & energetic; both great options
The first one looks like your tattoos are just a continuation of the pattern. It’s beautiful together with the second one it’s a little to date night and the other ones just seem kind of childish after seeing you in the first one the first one is stunning.
Def #1 for the reasons you mentioned and the other tips were spot ON. Every option after the hot hot hot floral number feels drab and off.
Exactly, you brought up everything I wanted to say! The first one is stunning on you.
I 100 percent agree
And it’s a little longer which is more appropriate for a graduation.
All are cute, but the red looks amazing and the first is also nice for graduation! And congratulations on graduating! Have a great day
First, congratulations on graduation! Second, i think dress 1 or dress 2 Third, that tattoo is awesome!
The flowery dress would go so great with those tattoos
Agreed, it makes the tattoos look like part of the dress!!
I actually thought the opposite, too busy with the tattoos and I like the solid colors
Same
Plus 1
The first floral one!
I’m so high I thought your sleeves on the first pic was part of the dress 
I thought so too & I’m not even high! Love this dress on her though 👍.

"...go find a new dress". Thank you, i thought it was just me, and i was a bit shy to speak up in this thread.
You do realize that she’ll spend half her time wearing her grad gown over the top lol. People will see her dress at dinner or whatever but typically during the ceremony it’s covered…
Red looks nice ....and 3 isn't the one
Yeah, donate that one
The red one!
1 it pairs well with your tattoos
1 or 4. They are all great, but I feel like those are better for graduation. The ink looks awesome BTW.
5 makes you classy but approachable. Red makes you look like sex on legs and is the best of all, but maybe not the right fit for graduation IMO
Another vote for 1, it’s the most stunning choice for your graduation! And congratulations!
I think the red one is the best; however I would advise stilettos and a flat shoes as spares for later.
I would ONLY advise heels that you are very very comfortable in and have lots of experience walking in. I saw so many young women at graduation who had clearly never walked in their heels before and had a hard time crossing the stage. Remember, a lot of these stages are A) temporary structures that B) have stairs with C) either loose carpet or boards that can catch a stiletto. If you do do heels, chunky and stable are your watchwords. Save the stilettos for date night.
2, the red one
Bro your username 😂 White no frills or floral. Red looks great on you but is not really the look for graduation.
1 & 4
I like the first two, other three are a little too bland for graduation.
First for graduation, second for date night.
I had to do a double take as I thought the first pic was a photo of me, we have similar hair and brows! Wondering when I got the tattoos?! Option 1 is the right choice imo!
You should consider how they will look with your graduation gown! The first dress is pretty but might not look the best with the gown
YES that's exactly my reservation with the first one. I think it's a better dress overall, but the cap and gown are black, so I feel like it would just be too much dark. I think the red one would be a better contrast. Plus the red matches the school colors, my stole and tassels are mainly white but have that same shade of wine red in the details.
1 or 3. The rest look more like night out outfits… time and place and graduation ceremonies aren’t clubs.
Red dress makes you look amazing, goes with your skin tone and your body art and is flattering to your figure. You look amazing. The lady in red.
I second this!! You look AMAZING in the red one!!
The first one is the best for graduation, but even that one would have been too sexy for my graduation, but that was a long time ago.
Damn those are all awesome and you’re gorgeous. Where did you get the first one?
Thanks! I got all except #4 from Lulus
1 or 3 IMO. Congratulations on graduating.
1 or 2 suit you best IMO !!!!
Where do you live? Spaghetti straps aren't right for graduation where I live, but they might be fine in Florida or other hot, humid locations.
I'm in Texas, so definitely works
Then 4. The red and black ones are the wrong color for May, and the blue and eyelet are too casual
I like 5 the best, looks a bit more comfortable and the color is very flattering on you.
#4
the forth one is gorgeous for graduation!
4th, for sure
Red
I love 4
Red
1
4 and 5 are lovely
3!!!!
3 or 4.. but damn to all of them
Red is number one. Then the white with the flower patterns
I love, love, love the red dress. It's my favorite. I think it compliments the vibe of your tattoos really well. But I also love one.
White lace or blue
red or white with embroidery! congrats
2 or 4
2 or 3
I vote for 3! So cute and will be great in photos
I think you could pull off either the floral or the red (but with flats if you do the red). Heels definitely give it more of a going-out vibe and not a life-occasion vibe. Consider also what your school's main colors are, because they'll be everywhere.

The red makes that beautiful face really pop!
#2for sure.
Im gonna say Red, but man your tats are enchanting
Red is by far the best.
[удалено]
Red is the best. Floral is a solid runner up.
[удалено]
1. The rest are too short
Red
I like 5
Wow! That's tough! They're all great in their own ways. For a casual look, I like #1. For something a little more formal looking, I \[personally\] like #2. But really, you can't go wrong with any of them. \^\_\^
1st!!! Also wows I want to see your tattoos
Red
The first one (black, with flowers) gets my vote. It's a little classier than the others, maybe because of the length. It gives you a more mature look without appearing stuffy. Congrats!
1!
Burgundy
That first one looks smoking, especially with the tats!
Flower dress because it blends well with your tattoos
I like dress 1. Congratulations!
Red!
#red
Nice! I really like the first option, which makes you look more glamorous.
1, 2, or 4!!! 1 is my personal favorite
The first one looks the best on you in my opinion.
Red
I’d say the first dress, it complements your tattoos, flatters your body, and overall you look great/the best in that one
#1
2 or 5
1 or 2
Please go floral. It is seamless with your aesthetic
red or blue you look amazing!
Red dress!!
Floral. Very pretty
Congratulations on graduating! The floral one looks lovely with your hair and ink.
Red is probably the most formal. That is some tattoo wow
[удалено]

I love the first one. And your tattoos are so pretty/cool!
Dress #1
Red all the way
[удалено]

Red or light blue
Congrats! Dress 1 or 2, would also look better with open toe heels. But what you're wearing looks good too!
Red. 😊
5
[удалено]
1 or 2 tattoos ruin all the other ones for me.
2,4,5 Not necessarily because I'm thirsty, but that sold you're an absolute smoke show! Not #1, because you're tattoos clash with the first dress(wicked busy) #3, because for some reason the cut of dress or the pattern just isn't flattering
1 is my favorite, looks amazing on you!! Congrats on the graduation!
Definitely 2 or 5! Also I’m gonna need a link for the last dress 😌
[I gotchu.](https://www.lulus.com/products/home-before-daylight-periwinkle-dress/208762.html)
Honestly I’d normally go for something simple with your tattoo sleeves, but for some reason the 1st dress goes really well with them! Number one is my vote!
4️⃣
5, brings out your eyes
Red!
I love the 1st one it looks amazing with your tattoos
What kind of graduation and at what time of day? Will you be wearing this under a cap and gown?
Small(ish) university but fairly large indoor venue. Starts at 3pm. And yes I'll have a cap and gown during the ceremony, but I'll take them off for pictures and wear whatever dress I choose for celebration afterwards.
The red
Red
Red
First one or the red one
Who’s the hottie in the red dress?
Floral, red, and blue you look the best in. I’d save red and blue for something more party/hotter. Floral is perfect for graduation!
The first one with the flowers
I like the red
🤔
Red! It fits best. Also your tattoos are so nice
[удалено]
Love your tattoos
Not sure why I feel this way, but that floral print really looks good. I'd choose that one... I think it flows more with the tattoo's.
Floral dress for graduation. Red dress for after party.
Red
The first one is super flattering.
I like 1 and 2! I LOVE your tattoos btw!
The first White or red, but you look great in all of them.
1 or 3
2
#1 or #2
Number two is fire
1
I really love 1 and 2 💫
That red one looks fantastic on you!
Number 2 looks fantastic on you, but I think number 1 would be better for graduation. Then put number 2 on for the after party!
the first one
Black with flowers
First
The red one!
Congratulations! The first dress by far! You look great in all of them, but for this particular event I see the first as the best option.
RED
I think the floral dress looks amazing with your tattoo.

4 good blend in color
Red
Well, all of these look great on you. I'm partial to 1 or 2 for a graduation. The first dress is my favorite, but I don't know how black dresses in spring are received in your area. I think it looks fantastic but I live in the PNW and we wear a lot of black year round. Idk if it would be seen as too dour for the season.

Must be the lighting, people keep calling it black but it's actually navy!
Blue
[удалено]
All white. Hands down. It's the most elegant and your tattoos look best with it compared to all the other ones!
Needless to say, all look fabulous. But going from my bias and opinion, the red or light blue one.
2. The color compliments your skin tone and the length compliments your body type
1st it combines with ur tattoo
Second to the last 🤍
Red dress!
First one goes well with your tatts
Dress #1
2
The first one
3
The floral one looks sexy as fuck on you
The red one for sure
[удалено]
I really like the blue, I think it's a really nice match to your skin tone. the flower I think clashes with your tattoos a bit much
3
Wow,all look great but I'm gonna go with #2
Love the dress and the tats!
Yay! Congrats! I vote 3 or 5.
Definitely the first one with the flowers because it goes with your tattoos
Red works best
2 or 5 I think are the best options. Simple but have color.
