Let’s think back on the 1987 school year . . . There were quite a lot of trends and fads that culti- vated themselves. You know, one person wears it, and the next week, every else is! This process is called trend-setting. Trends originate from mov- ies, television, magazines, and things we see around us. For example, girls began wearing all kinds of bows in their hair. Black bows, pink bows, large bows, small, conservative, and wild. These bows were a lot like the bows worn in the 60’s. Some seem to think there popularity began with Princess “Fergie’s” fascination with them, and us- ing them on her wedding gown. Another popular trend of ’87 are stirrup pants in many styles, colors, and textures. They were worn with favorite oversize shirts and sweaters with various styles of shoes. This brings us to another rapidly changing fad, shoes . . . Shoes came in various colors, styles, tex- tures and lengths, too. There was a sudden comeback in party dresses. Party dresses were quite popular in the 50’s and early 60’s. Now, teens are even more interested in really “Puttin on the Ritz” for special occasions. Watches and accessories were real big this year too. Swatches, Slinky, Timex, and many more styles . . . Weekends found many W.H.S. students at concerts, Rocky’s, WQCM dances, sports events, and maybe even aerobic centers and health clubs. Aerobics are popular because of a sudden interest in physical fitness throughout the nation. It can almost be considered a craze. Teens still found themselves listening to their favorite records and tapes, movies on their home VCR’s, and of course tuning in on Thursday nights at 8:00 for the infamous Cosby Show.
