Fashions vary with taste An assortment of fashionable styles were seen at school ether you prefer punk preppy, or classic styles, there is a cate- gory for everyone. This school, like many others, showed a variety of dif- ferent clothing styles as students chose what they wanted to represent by the clothes they wore. Clothing styles re- vealed much about one and one's outlook on life, including musical taste. The 'lNew Wave style was becom- ing more popular. It mostly consisted of bright colors, stripes, and plaids. Each person had their own distinct style. It may not have been pleasing to the eye, but appealed more to per- sonal taste. All a person had to do was put on some pants with a shirt. It didn't matter if the outfit went together or not. I'The clothes I wear accentuate the way I feel and how I want to look a certain day. Jeans and T-shirts are so boring and I feel the people that wear such clothes don't really care how they look said junior Duran Knutzen New Wave hair styles are short with maybe a touch of color.

These fashions have re- mained the same for a long time and will probably stay that way in the future. Styles will change from year to year as they vary with different people. Dress how you want to and be orig- inal. Also around. but not seen as often in the midwest as on the west and east coasts was the nNew Romantic style. It consisted of leather pants and jackets, striped shirts, baggy pants, zodiac shoes, and other styles. This fashion was found mainly in larger cities and in Europe. Then there was the Preppy' style.

Commenting on Prep- py' styles, Ingrid Hegeland an em- ployee at The Limited said. I'It's not so conservative. She said the mode for this year for girls was the tuxedo outfit, and the taffeta in blouses and dresses was Hin . Though still worn, the Urban Cow- boy' look was not as popular as it had been in years past, but it was guaran- teed to be around The look consisted of jeans or overalls with a plaid shirt and cowboy boots.
