What Homecoming Dress You Should Wear According to Your Horoscope
Homecoming is almost here and, as we’ve been so busy getting our wardrobes ready for a season that calls for brand new jeans, cozy knits, and ankle booties abound, we’ve nearly forgotten to choose our looks for the biggest event of the season. So, to help us along, we’ve turned to the stars—asking our horoscopes what look will suit us best. From mini dresses to jumpsuits, in not-so-basic black and bright pops of color alike, find your fashion horoscope here, just in time for Homecoming. And if you want to donate a brand-new, never-worn Homecoming dress for a good cause, consider the Believe in Yourself project, which provides looks to girls around the country who come from low-income families.

You’re the most likely among your trends to try that crazy thing no one else would have the confidence to rock—and you do it without batting an eyelash.

Once it is, though, you go full-force into the fashionable direction and totally own it. For this year, you have your eyes on a timeless midi silhouette you know you’ll wear long past Homecoming itself.

You’re stubborn—but in the best way possible—and, let’s be honest, have known what you’re going to walk into that Homecoming party wearing for months. With your eye on the prize, you’ve chosen to pair a romantic trend with an edgy one (because, when have you not made it your own…) and you know you’re going to be one of the best dressed in the room.

10/13Cancer: June 21-July 22
A Cancer is most likely to stick to what she knows, but—hey—it’s worked wonders so far! You’re going to go for a shorter silhouette so you can rock your look to Homecoming and beyond, in a pattern that gives just enough pop without it being too overpowering. What’s more, your dress will be one that easily translates from dressy Homecoming itself to a more casual event later, with a leather jacket or denim trucker on top.

11/13Leo: July 23-August 22
Headstrong and confident, you’re going to wear what you want, when you want it. As such, you’re more apt to choose that more adventurous trend or look that is sure to turn-head. This year, consider a jumpsuit instead of a gown to keep your Homecoming fun.
