PARTY LIKE A ROCKSTAR CLASS OF 2020

Wellington The Magazine set out on a mission to do something special for our graduating seniors during these unprecedented times — something no one else was doing and would be meaningful for years to come. This goal led to the amazing fashion pictorial that spreads over the pages of this month’s magazine.

Graduating seniors were not going to have the opportunity to attend their senior prom, a milestone event of the high school experience that many had been planning for all year long, including choosing the perfect dress or selecting a stylish tuxedo or suit. The idea for our pictorial came as we were scrolling through Instagram and read the hashtag #alldressedupandnopromtoattend featuring a young lady polishing her nails in a full face of makeup and her beautiful prom dress hanging behind her. At that moment, the idea was born to give these partygoers the opportunity to show off their “prom looks” in this special “Celebrating Our Seniors” pictorial.

This photo shoot was done in collaboration with our community partner La Casa Hermosa. Iva Ivanova and her team were once again simply amazing to work with. From our initial inquiry, to teaming up during the shoot for hair and makeup, to styling assistance, the team at La Casa Hermosa were exceptional.

Participating seniors had the chance to coordinate appointments with their friends and perhaps bring their prom date to be included in the photo session. It was a moment in time captured for a lifetime of memories, and we know it brought many smiles to their faces. Along with a small swag bag gift, each of the new graduates will also receive high resolution photography to keep and share with family and friends, compliments of Wellington The Magazine.
