The eighties have brought about many changes, but few that we haven't seen or heard of before. Miniskirts, turtle-necks under slip-over sweaters, acid wash, and saddle oxfords are 20X Fashion in this year's line-up. Even the once forgotten penny loafer and bobby socks are making a fashion statement. The amazing truth about a particular style of fashion is that it is usually a reflection of its owner. It seems that most peo- ple are attracted to a certain style or color and it's not un- common to hear someone say that a specific outfit looks just like you. We have come to as- sociate the look with the per- son. As the Fashion Express makes its rounds on campus, the Hdressers and the im- pressers have first-class tick- ets to rule the halls. These fash- ion-setters prove once again that a change in the times or the styles will not stop them from keeping up with what is liinlll -,. 'W--'Q af., M' i 'SMI 1 .1 A Yfggv 1

ll The way you style your hair reflects a lot about you and your personality. The lack of hair or the abundance of it, a fashionable style or a classic one, wildly fixed or subdued and natural, all tell people your tastes, feelings, and your point of view in this world. Here at Harding there are many differ- ent people with different styles and tastes who express them in many ways, especially through their hair. Hair styles come and go quickly. Something that is the rave today can be considered grossly unfashionable tomor- row. You can look back years and be amazed at the clothes you wore or the way you styled your hair. Some past styles can make you laugh or even cry. Boys' hairstyles have the biggest difference this year. Shaved hair is the most popu- lar style. Logo symbols, names, lines and abstract de- signs are used to decorate and draw attention to the heads of many guys at our school. Mousses, gels, and hairsprays are also used to help get the desired effects. There is a huge variety of styles and preferences for people to choose. These styles and preferences are mostly shown through your ap- pearance. A person's appear- ance is the most noticeable way to show your feelings about life. Style can tell a lot about a person. This Ram shows his true style and with the posh Gucci symbol class shaved in his hair. This interesting style of hair cut is quite popular this year, No matter the style, people at Har- ding stick together, Kenneth Hopper and Larry Brown demonstrate the closeness and friendship that is fol- lowed here.
