F ASHION THIS PAGE top: Derek McKenzie, Papillion center left: Delwin Wohlgemuth, Holdrege right: Bryceson Watson, Lincoln FAR PAGE left: Kenny Copas, Cozad right: Johnette Toye, Omaha In the name of StuCe by Kim Whittemore Style has always been a confusing subject — especially for those who try to adhere to it. Trying to stay within the lines of what’s “in” and still carry off a unique style is a difficult chore. But the students at Kearney State College have handled this task with ease. By adopting their own style, Lo- pers have not only raised eyebrows but also questions. For example: Why do we pay modern prices for stone-washed jeans that look centuries old? If Swatches are watches, then why can’t we read the time on them? ... And if people can’t read just one (Swatch), do they think wearing two or more will help? Why do women spend hours fixing their hair just to make it look messed up? When we were young we were told to pull our socks up. Now that we’re “mature” is it “cool” to wear them down? Boxer shorts are being worn by all yet do women really need a fly? Why do people with perfect vision need colored contact lenses? If skin-tight stirrup pants are meant to be revealing, then why do women wear knee-length sweaters over them? What is the purpose of washing hair when minutes later we coat it with hair- spray, gel, sculpting lotion, freeze and mousse? Guess Jeans are very popular but what exactly are we supposed to guess? The answers to these questions come in one simple reply: It’s all in the name of STYLE.

She modeled size 16 plus which was considered a big model” and at $150 an hour, she made “big” bucks. Not only did she model for sever- al hairstyle advertisements and posters, fashion shows and large size catalogs, but also for two magazine ads for Wran- gler Jeans, size 16 plus. Billi, now a KSC sophomore from Summerfield, Kan., started her three- year career while in high school with an inquiry into a TV commercial looking for large models. “It started out as kind of a joke,” she said, “but it turned out to be a way to earn extra money for her family.” The fashions Billi modeled were de- signed to conceal figure flaws. “I think it’s great that they’ve created fashions that will help people who are self-con- scious,” she said. Billi pointed out that approximately three-fourths of society Even though her $150 an hour career has ended, the much photographed Priefert obliged Blue and Gold photographer Kim Whittemore and posed for these shots.
