DRESS FOR
SUCCESS A LOOK INTO FORMAL DRESS AT THE ACADEMY
Generations of Cheshire Academy students have worn what is known as formal dress: a pressed, crisp, white shirt; gray slacks; and a blue blazer. Perhaps the most timeless tradition in Cheshire Academy’s history, formal dress is an experience that ties all graduates together. No matter what a student’s initial opinion of the dress code may have been, long after the blazer has been folded up and stored away, most alumni find themselves reflecting fondly on their days of blue and gray at Cheshire Academy. Read on as we delve into the history of the dress code and talk to members of the community about its place in our past and our future.
