These Teens Showed Up To Prom In Perfectly Coordinated Superhero Outfits
Imagine telling your grandkids you went to prom dressed as Batman.
You know what they say about prom: it's the high school experience you'll remember for the rest of your life. And everyone knows that what you wear is the most important part, because you want to show everyone (ahem, the cute boy who ignored you in algebra) just how fabulous you actually are.
But there's always that one person that upstages everyone. Or in this case, an entire group of teens who outdid everyone at their high school prom. I'm not talking a Claire Danes style light up dress or even a Rihanna omelette dress. I'm talking something BIG, something out-of-this-world awesome.
SUPERHEROES.
This group of teens went to prom in perfectly coordinated superhero outfits and has been winning the Internet ever since.
Photographer Johnny Bolinger of BN Focus Photography took pictures of this hilarious group of students from Subiaco Academy in Arkansas.
The photo shoot started out with basic prom-style shots, but took an amazing turn when the boys revealed what was underneath their suit jackets.
"We just did the normal, prom-style photos, but at some point they said they wanted to do a superhero-type of photo," Bolinger told BuzzFeed.
The guys unbuttoned their dress shirts to reveal superhero T-shirts that matched their date's dresses. I spy Superman, Batman, The Green Lantern etc—and all with perfectly coordinated bow ties, of course.
The photos have been shared more than 300,000 times on social media. That's a helluva lot more success than I had on prom night.
Perhaps the group pulled inspiration from the OG prom spotlight stealer, Jaden Smith, who went to prom dressed as Batman last year.
Either way, more people need to go to prom dressed as superheroes.
