You Look Marvelous!? Styles express individuality, trends When school doors opened Sep- tember 1, a whole different look, known as fashion, awaited, or perhaps alarmed, those who entered. lt was a popular topic of discussion among everyone. Conversations could be heard in hallways and passing periods similar to: Did ya see that guy's hair? asked one student. Yea, my mom would kill me if l did something like that, replied the other. Yet, individual and group fashion statements helped to make the school year a colorful and stylish one. From new wave to roper to prep, outer wear worn by students made an impression - some positive, some negative. I don't like being a carbon copy of someone else, said sophomore Chris King. I like to be different from eve- ryone else. Perms, hairsprays, dyes, and high- lights were strictly a personal pref- erence when it came to hairstyles. Shaved sides, short in back, long in the front, and finally, having it hang in your face or out in the air was the only way to describe some of the outstand- ing hairstyles. l don't like to be in the same mold everyday, said sophomore Billy In- gle. It's just part of having different styles. Some people like burrs and some like liberty spikes. It just de- pends on the person's lifestyle and personality. A majority of students donned name brand shirts such as Guess, Ocean Pacific KOPJ, and Generra. Oth- ers chose to wear western shirts, con- cert t-shirts, baggy shirts and, even a few wore tie-dyed shirts. However, any suggestive, alcohol, or drug ad- vertisement on shirts were prohibited according to the dress code. fYes, that even included the original party an- imal, Spuds MacKenzie.j One of the most popular fads were the acid-jeans. Not only were the girls rushing out to purchase a pair of these jeans, but so were the guys. These bleached out denim jeans cost an av- erage of S45 per pair and could be bought at most department stores. More classic jeans worn included Wrangler, Lee and Guess. Making a comeback this year were the Keds canvas tennis shoes in a rainbow of colors. ,The main differ- ence in the sneaker was the lack or exclusion of laces. I really think they're more com- fortable without the laces, said junior Aundria Calvert. When you don't have to lace them you don't worry about tying or having them come un- tied. Whatever the style of clothes stu- dents wore, their individual fashion statements definitely reflected unique personalities. - Monica Brown school. L Fashions 15 Left: Chris King, A.
