Suits have a special place in Shahidi’s wardrobe, so the sleek design felt right. “Fun fact: I’ve celebrated most of my important moments in a suit,” she says. “This outfit also highlights the person I once was, while also showcasing the evolution of the person I am becoming—aligning perfectly with the theme of graduation.” She was a fan of the ensemble’s more subtle considerations, too. “It’s practically built: Graduation is a day filled with lots of walking and sitting, and choosing a skort with pockets was a must!” she says.
