PORTSPECIALREPORTSPECIALREPORTSPECIALREPORTSPECIALREPOFITSPECIAL TREND- SETTERS HIT THE FASHION SCENE The 1980-81 fashion season was a trendy and widely varying one. There was an abundance of styles and colors exhibited. It was common to see the New York-Paris style around the school in the form of straight skirts and blazer-styled jackets. Another common sight around the Sprayberry campus was down-South redneck styled jeans, boots and cowboy hats. One of the newer fads was a rather short-lived oneg that was Punk rock. For the short time that punk was around, styles such as purple pants, hair and shirts were worn with black slick pants. Aside from the wide range of clothing styles, there was also a wide variance in hair styles. The classical French braid was probably the most unique hair-do to hit the scene. There were, of course the basic wings or feathered look. The curly looks were also roaming the halls of Sprayberry. These were just a few of the many changes to hit the fashion-minded students at SHS. It seems that for the New Styles , Sprayberry is certainly the place to be. I i P fx I If -iii
