Designs change with the time and what used to be in is soon old-fashioned. But clothes took an unusually big turn this year as comfort became the number one concern and femininity made a comeback. The evidence was seen in the halls on practically all students. Skirts changed from short, shorter, shortest, to below the knee, and tee shirts were a big hit along with boys ' tennis shoes for girls. and girls ' necklaces for boys! Jeans, a teenager ' s best friend, still looked faded and worn, but switched from bell- bottoms to high-waists. Of course, not everyone had the money to buy a whole new wardrobe, but most were able to stick to the few unspoken guidelines. For example, if your jeans were a couple of inches off the tops of your shoes, you might have been accused of waiting for a flood! If you chose to wear knee socks instead of hose with a dress, you might have felt a bit out of place. And if good shoes were a must, you had to make sure that they weren ' t wingtips, a flat- heeled shoe with a pointed toe, the complete opposite of the fashionable style. Despite the fashion changes, this year provided the most free and unlimited styles that left you your individuality, and also a little bit of cash for Saturday nights!
