Our World Of Styles Do you go to Crazy Horse or Pavlova’s to get your hair styled? Do you buy only Chanel make up? Do you wear Calvin Klein and Betsy Johnson, or are Hawaiian shirts more your wave? People seem to be going for more of the expensive “in” styles each year. It wasn’t unusual to walk around school and see flowered jeans, European shoes, trench coats, and long dresses with loose belts. Long, short, or inbetween were the “in” styles for hair. Long perms were sexy. The bobbed styles were the cute look, and punk was the word for anyone that had short hair. 1986 was a year of changes. If someone didn’t like the color of their hair, they changed it. If blue denim wasn’t for you, the jeans got bleached. If nice and neat wasn’t your thing, looking like Madonna was acceptable. Mom and Dad always told us, “Be what you want to be”, so we did. We called it the “in” styles, but later on in life people will be saying it was our individual characteristics that make us what we are. Personal appearances wasn’t the only thing that got branded “style.” Cars, local hang-outs, movies, Clinch Park, and certain sporting events were branded as “ins.” With technology comes changes. Our world is a world with styles that come and go. When the styles have gone, they’re what make us what we are. Style is not a dirty word, but a word filled with character, just like the class of ’86.
