LaSalle ' s Style LaSalle ' s uniqueness was reflected in each student. Their individuality was openly expressed in a free and relaxed atmosphere leaving the students to their own creativity when dressing for school. The majority still preferred the casual, comfortable style of a pair of faded Levi ' s but more and more the look was dressy. The ladies clothed themselves in vari- ous types of suits, either with a skirt or pair of pants. Guys often wore jeans and T-shirts, but a dressier, businessman ' s style appeared increasingly in the halls. Dress slacks and three piece suits were not novelties as once before. Leather dominated the fashion scene. Long and short leather coats kept scores of LaSalle students warm during icy weather. Leather boots were worn with almost anything — and were seen and heard year-round. Clothes significantly represented each student ' s uniqueness from day to day.
