Susan Allen Folium u a putlowl tfafiumifr Fashion is different things to different people. For some it just means looking good! To Junior Briggs Holmes, Fashion is a way of expressing my individuality to those who don't know me! This year's fashion was a combination of Vogue, California, and a return to the 60s. Big jewelry, gold and silver accessories, leather and jean jackets,, jams, tie-dyed shirts, string bracelets and peace signs were all popular. Many looks were inspired by magazines such as Vogue, GQ, and Glamour. They featured chains, coins, metallic shoes and purses, huge earrings, and long, straight skirts.
