'Vice' adds xpression, creativity bring spice fo men S variety to fashion scene wardrobe While it has long been said that clothes make the man, Senior Liesl Wright would like to add that clothes also make the woman. Through clothing, people can express themselves, Wright said. If you dress like you don 't care, people will think that you don 't care. But if you dress creatively, peo- ple will expect you to be creative, she said Wright explained that creativity and ex- pression are the main reasons why she dresses the way she does. I wanted to express myself more and I feel more creative when 1 dress this way. Feeling equally comfortable in a light summer dress or in a pair of stirrup pants, Wright says that she doesn't follow any specific style trend. For me theres no specihc style. When you get locked into a certain style of dress, it gets boring after awhile, it should vary, said Wright. Many parents feel threatened by the way their children dress, but Wright says her parents encourage her to express herself. They don 't really like what I wear, but they agree thatl should express myself she said Although expression and creativity are the foundation for her wardrobe, she is also influenced by new wave music groups and magazines such as Seventeen. While her reasons for dressing in modern fashions seem uncommon, the styles she wore were not uncommon at North. You'd be sadly mistaken if you thought multi-colored pants and paisley were out of style. 1986 was a year in which music, TV, and 60's nostalgia came together and created a new fashion that anyone could wear. Women's fashions seemed to originate from a mixture of 60's patterns such as paisley and flowers, and an 80's twist of fashions from rock superstar Madonna. Over sized shirts, long sweaters with shirt tails out, elaborate broaches, and numerous long beaded necklaces detailed the effect. Men's fashions, whether inspired by stubble-faced Miami police officers donned in white sport coats and sunglasses, or any one of a number of rock stars that popularized this style, have changed little. Men also found that slacks and slip on shoes without socks were an important part of the male wardrobe. - Mark McCormick. , JUST BROWSING- Lisa Oswald wears the popular jeanwear worn by many girls that is often highlighted with several bracelets, long beaded necklaces and broaches. GIVE ME THAT- A fashion that was carried on from last year is the long and often very colorful shorts that senior Tadd Fowler models. Probably the most common fad that can be seen almost every where is denim clothing, here worn by Senior Lance Huber. VOGUE INDEED- Some students like junior Lana Hornbeck went for a rather unique version of the bob with spiked hair. F ads and Fashions Tower 86
