From preppy to punk, different fashions flooded the school. Fashions were more than just the clothes that you wore. They could match almost anyone’s taste and personality. Sophisticated people preferred the dressed-up look and athletic people preferred jeans and casual tops. Fashions also played a vital role ina person’s social life. The right clothes always help a person’s appearance and pesonality. Fashions helped tre- mendously with a person’s growth socially and helped a person prepare for the future.
