Coke shirts, jeans, sweaters and hats swamped the stores as people of all ages fought over the correct size. Coke is itll Where The Boys Shop What's on top always counts, but this year it counted more than ever because shirts were bigger than ever! From whites to neon brights, big shirts were coming on strong over minis, stirrups and shorts. And the best place to buy them was in your favorite department store - in the boys' section. Authentic and inexpensive, these oversized shirts were accented with bow-ties, neckties, suspenders and extra- large sweaters also found in the boys' section. To add to the menswear effect, oxfords were the shoes to wear. With socks on the outside of the pants, the beaten-up look was the most popular. Borrowed from the boysl Baroque 8: Beaunful The spirit of the baroque era made an impressive comeback. This fall's fashions were overflowing with rich textures and designs of the seventeenth century.

Here at school, brooches and paisley were the things to wear. Yes. even the guys wore paisley!!
