“In Style” for 1982 During 1982, many fads and fashions influenced life at Lowell High School. Rubik’s Cube hit the market and was a complete mind boggier for most people. However, after weeks of furiously working with the cube, many students found the solution—either on their own or with the help of the answer book. Rock n ' Roll still proved it was more than a fad, by reigning the music business. However, th e styles and types of Rock Music changed rapidly from Punk to Hard Rock. Styles in dress took two basic courses throughout the year, Preppie and Punk. The “Preppie look,” born in the East Coast, fi¬ nally reached the Midwest and topsiders and khakies were a must for many students. In contrast, other students preferred the brighter colors and more unique clothes of punk to cast a new wave or punk rock look. Many students took both routes and became “Preppie Punks.” Designer jeans stayed in style and became more of a common fashion among both girls and boys. Tom Gunning. Jane Borkowski, and Diana Jazwinski demonstrate a fad that is always “in”—friendship. The Rubik ' s Cube was one of the most pop¬ ular fads of 1982. 12
