The good news? It’s in the girls’ hands, which means the plans, rides, reservations, after party issues and her date will be set well in advance [unlike the boys, who have been known to leave it til the day of to focus]. Â The bad news? It’s another HS dance, and another chance to argue about What To Wear.
The first known Sadie Hawkins dance, held in 1938, introduced the idea that women could ask men to be their dates instead of demurely waiting around to be asked. Â For these events, girls generally dress less formally than prom – but it’s still a dance. Â Sadie’s is held in winter in most Charlotte schools, so it’s a good idea to start to shop now, while the boutiques are packed with holiday dresses. Â And definitely during the after-Christmas sales.
