Scarsdale 10583

It was a perfect night for a prom as the heat and humidity broke and yielded a cool, dry, breezy afternoon to begin the festivities. The Scarsdale senior class had been planning this event for years and the big day finally arrived on June 2. In the Scarsdale tradition, parents hosted a red carpet celebration at the high school, where everyone could show off their attire and walk the red carpet to the buses which would carry the students to the Surf Club in New Rochelle.

Boys in tuxedos and girls in gowns gathered at pre-prom parties at private homes for picture taking and toasts, before moving on to the high school for the big send-off. Continuing another tradition, senior girls wore long dresses, while girls from other grades attended in shorter cocktail-length dresses. Colors were especially vibrant this year – with many in blues, purples, reds, and orange – making for splendid photo opps. Black was out, and some looked stunning in dazzling white floor length dresses.

Heel were high, and girls wobbled on platforms and spiked heels -- sure to be kicked off as the night progressed. Many of the girls sported elaborate up-do’s or had their long hair styled into curls.

Take a look at these photos of Scarsdale students – who could easily be mistaken for Hollywood stars.

Hard to believe it was a year ago that my girls were walking down the red carpet. The smiles on all the faces, tell all there is to know. This is milestone they will remember forever, they have a lot to be proud of, and the best is yet to come. Congratulations to the class of 2011.
