Ved Anumala
Decked out in a black and white tuxedo, senior Ved Anumala describes his outfit as more traditional compared to what others are wearing to prom. However, he says the lines on the shirt add character, setting it apart from the typical plain white dress shirt.
“The shirt has some different lining to it that is from Switzerland that makes it special,” Anumala said. “I was originally going for a plain white dress shirt. But then when I saw it, I was like, ‘Hey, that looks pretty interesting,’ so I kind of just went with it.”
A sage green bow tie adds a pop of color to his outfit. Anumala attributes this to his date’s dress, as he purchased the bow tie from Tuxedo Warehouse to match her dress.
“I really like her dress and in the process of picking it out, it was between a darker green and sage green and I thought sage green was pretty good,” Anumala said. “And I also thought it works better with the black and white because even though it's so simple, it still looks pretty good.”
