5.-o AJ 44 Jeans J , L' -46.94 a-aff Jeans Cn Genes eans, a teenagers best friend. They're comfortable, can be worn anywhere and are wrinkle-free. remarked Sr. Laura Washington. lt's the same idea Levi Straus had in 1875 when he made the first pair of jeans out of sail canvas. Lee-ee-ee vis rr lee-ee-ee lee-ee-lee-ee vis became the first theme song for a Levi commercial more than a century later. As the years progressed, jeans made dramatic changes. ln the late 60's it was the flared bottoms that dragged on the ground until they were tattered and frayed. A few years later, the bell bottoms enlarged into a new breed, known as the elephant bottoms. To become a bit sexy, they hung off the hips and were simply known as hip-huggers Finally, Levis came out with straight legs and were split at the ankle seams in order to fit over those clumsy hiking boots. With tight straight legs, heels, and cuffs, a new trend began in the mid 70's. Calvin Klein, Gloria Vanderbilt, Vidal Sassoon, Britania, Pentimento, and Jorache were some of the popular, expensive jeans that included a status symbol of the designer's name on the back. Baggies, not the sandwich wrap you know, but jeans thin at the waist and ankles with bagged hips, were the 1980's newest fad. Since then jeans now have their own stores, commercials, companies, and songs. So hang onto your faithful friends. The trend on jeans changes so often that maybe those old hip-huggers will be back. tj Guess the Gateway students. 23 Soph. Rachel Johnson enjoys the good old feeling of Levis. 3j The most comfortable attire worn by students is shown on Fr. Deeanna Wideman. 4j Jr. Sindee Claflin displays the earthy look of the bib-overalls that became popular in the mid 70's.
