With Homecoming just around the corner, students are buzzing with excitement over this year’s fashion trends and affordable dinner plans. From dresses to dinner, there’s a little something for everyone to enjoy without breaking the bank. One of the biggest trends in 2025 Homecoming dresses is the corset style. Junior Danika Doyle shared her thoughts on what people will be wearing this season. “A lot of corsets this year for sure,” she said. The structured top is making a big comeback, giving dresses a stylish and flattering look. Other students, including Mac Orf, Lula Bowling, and Regan Monin, agreed that tight-fitting dresses will still be popular. But they also pointed out another trend making its way onto the dance floor—babydoll dresses. “Babydoll dresses,” Lula explained, are more commonly known as “a loose, short, flowy dress,” and they’re a comfortable yet cute option for those wanting to dance the night away without feeling too restricted.
While dresses are a major part of the fun, dinner plans are just as important. Luckily, many students are choosing affordable spots to eat before the dance. Chick-fil-A and Roosters were popular picks among students looking for something casual and quick. For those wanting a more personal experience, some are planning to skip the restaurants altogether and host dinner at home with friends. Not only is it cheaper, but it can be more relaxed and fun. Whether it’s a corset dress, a babydoll style, or a trip to Chick-fil-A, Beavercreek students are proving that Homecoming 2025 is all about personal style and smart choices. With fashion-forward looks and budget-friendly meals, this year’s dance is sure to be one to remember.
