These Street Style Outfits Stormed The Yard At Howard’s Homecoming
By Avon Dorsey · Updated October 23, 2020
Passionately dubbed ‘The Real HU,’ Howard University’s annual homecoming football game is always jam-packed with tailgating, reunion parties and folks stomping the yard. This year’s gathering kicked-off with the annual fashion show and the energetic ‘Yard Fest’ that delivered music performances by A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie and more. Also hitting the yard this year were the fashions, from the parking lot to the stadium. Tons of girls and guys weathered the stormy rain in Washington, D.C. and wore their Saturday-best as they greeted and hugged longtime classmates, friends and family members throughout the campus. Peep our HU street style gallery below and let us know whose homecoming outfit was the best!
