All eyes faH on Freddie Mercer as he humors Stephanie Be and Tim Arntz between classes Expecting a witty answer at any moment. Carmen Carden and Km Lange look intently toward Nicole Prince Stepping in Style Going bock to yesteryear — what's next? Did it seem that fashions in '84 were re- flecting those decades earlier? We had straight leg jeans, button-down collars, loafers, and oh yes. we must not forget the mini-skirts. Of course, there were other fashions. As a matter of fact, just about anything worn those days was in fashion, well, anything except for the dreaded long dress and the denim vest. But then again, who were we to say anything if someone wanted to wear one of those? Gag me with a dumptruck! Well, it was like this, if it was not Levi’s, Sebagos, or button-downs, it was not hip.” But couldn’t one have argued that the fashions then were somewhat similar to those of the 50’s and 60’s? We probably wouldn't have said it because we believed we had started the fad. Actually, Levi’s, loafers, and button-downs were worn at the Little Pig Restaurant in the mid 50’s. Hard to believe? Just go home and ask the older generation what they wore and what their hangout was. If the older generation had seen some of those fashions, they would probably have said, Gross me out! Plastic pants, spasmatic hair, zebra suits, and leather skirts, totally awesome! What will the teenager think of next? See- through clothes? That remains to be seen, hopefully not by us! We ask ourselves why were there such fashions in the first place. When you think back, the girls in the 20’s wore their frills while guys wore their tuxes. It sounded like an original idea to our age. What about the 50’s with their poo- dle skirts, Levi’s, and bobbie socks? They were also around in our day, except that we had changed a few poodles to blue and green hippos. 1984 was truly a year of exciting styles which reeked with various vivid colors. It was a year that allowed us to dress in style. Hawaiian Tropic, OP , and Panama Jack may be popular but the true label of all is worn by Tim McCoy and Tamm) Maples. 20 Student Life — Fashion
