Fashions v 1 (Pickett Wise) The future business wom- an look. 2. Daron Coates looks very very nice in his corduroy. 3. Is it April, Sherri, Leslie, Pickett, or Sarah? 4. Vincent Gideon The fade, one of the many new haircuts worn by guys this year. 5. One of the most popular shoes, the short boots. Here Today, Gone Tomorrow For many years, we have seen a lot of fashions come and go. But as the school year 1982-83 came about, we were faced with many new fashions everyday. These fashions included cute mini-skirts, although some were worn not only in the summer, but for winter as well, and were the Oxford Shirts and sweater vests of all colors. When time went on, we started to see many guys in Saddle Oxfords of all sizes, and girls wearing the short boots. But this school year, it seemed as if everyone was either trying to be Preppy or talk and look like Moon Unit Zappa ' s Valley Girls. The so called Preppy consist- ed of Ralph Lauren ' s Polo shirts, ties, and pants. The wearing of stripes, plaids, argyle sweaters and socks, suspenders and Seba- go shoes. The Valley Girl look just mostly consisted of the wearing of mini-skirts. But it wasn ' t really the look we were crazy about, it was the Valley Girl talk or lan- guage. This consisted of such phrases as I mean like grody to the max man, and You know like gag me with a spoon. Every man here was held individually responsible for his own conduct. — Frederick Douglass As far as jewelry went, the new fashion was the add-a-bead necklaces, ram head earrings, and the wearing of thousands of gold bangles on your arm. Although not everyone was into this new trend here today, gone tomorrow, we each had a special style of our own. Student Life Fashions 215
