'Black Panther' Themed Prom Send-Off

Lauren Porter Jun, 07, 2018

It’s been months since Black Panther hit theaters and broke Blockbuster records and we’re still on a high about the Ryan Coogler-directed film. However, a couple Philadelphia teens might have us beat in the Wakanda forever fandom.

As seen on Instagram, two Philly-area teens attended their high school prom and they had an epic Black Panther-themed send-off complete with T’Challa, the Dora Milaje, Killmonger and M’Baku too.

The whole block was in attendance as the teen, Dayanna, headed off to prom with her boyfriend, Quian.

Dayanna rocked a gorgeous gold gown while her date completed the couple’s debut with an amazingly embroidered jacket. As if that wasn’t enough, the duo rode off in style as they headed out to the big dance.

The only thing we can say is, Wakanda forever…and ever.
