rever on the move F From Tau Kappa Epsilon to the Wallace Complex students were in step with (ife. No matter what the tempo, they moved with a flair all their own. Stumbling out of bed, rushing to class, sleeping through it, afternoon labs and studying unti 3 a.m., all were an inevitable part of life at Idaho. But for most students it was the unplanned, fast-paced weekends that they lived for. It was after the mundane daily tasks that students cut loose and raced the clock stealing every second of fun before the alarm went off Monday morning. Idaho provided a variety of rhythms allowing students to choose their own beat. Whether it was the driving beat of Rail at Homecoming or the comic laughter of the Matchmaker or the sporadic beat of watching the unpredictable offense of the Vandal basketball team. Students waded through the academic grind and danced on, always in step. Campus Life Divider 9

Caught between the search for the new and rebirth of the old, campus fashion Best of both ashion can mean F many things to many different people, but to most, fashion is a way of ex- pressing their inner self through what they wear. Jerry Wicks, a UI graduate student in Bacteriology and an employee of a Moscow clothing store, gave his impressions of this year’s fashions. The wool sport coat with a sweater under it, and tweedy wool- look pants are the masculine look. Argyle sweaters with Argyle socks, remi niscent of the '50's, are for both men and women. The masculine look uses button-down col- lars with tie bars and narrow ties. Colors are dark, rich, red-brown, dark burgundy, greys, heathery, almost mud- dy. A dark basic color inter-woven with a fiber of lighter color gives the effect of Fashion conscious. Although most students do not have a lot of extra money to spend on clothes they can still be fashionable. 10 Fashion dynamic tone with less- harsh color. The color draws you in. Trendy or novelty clothing comes in tones that are bright and clear, but not ob- noxiously so. Colors are black with cobalt blue, mustard and fuschia. Other popular colors are berry and teal green. Outer seams of pant legs are flanged with colored inserts that flash color with movement. Some pants have inverted pleats at the knee. Many pant legs are cuffed. There is hard- ware — lots of zippers, D-rings, snaps and buckles. M-TV shows inspire clothes that are bright and shiny. Cotton chintz is made up in shirts and matching ties of bright colors. Shirts will have asym- metric closures. Shoulders may be pleated outward at the sleeve seam, giving a A new look. Amy Combs and Phil Lee display a relatively new look, a shirt-dress with a colorful belt and a side- buttoned shirt. tried for the worlds vested look. This is quite common in outerwear. Parachute pants in bright nylon material is a popular novelty. The “preppy” look is still very much around, with its standard blue blazer that is a good base for wardrobe changes. With it, dif- ferent dress effects are accomplished by wear- ing shirts open at the neck, or buttoned- down and dressy. Neckties and patterned shirts expand the war- drobe. Cotton twill or cotton poly-twill slacks go well with the look, as well as khaki and Chino pants. Men's shoes have lost the clunky look that went well with wide- bottom pants, and are lighter and low-profile, the toes more pointed than stubby. Penny loafers with tassels, Saddle shoes, and Top- siders are popular. Light canvas shoes in bright colors go well with summer styles. The Oriental or Ar- chitectural look means an all-over body silhouette that is V shaped, with a wide- necked, flanged-sleeve top tapering down to tight pants or skirts. Or it may be a “boxy” look. Collars are big and they stand up. Jeans are still the pant favorite. They are tight, with slim legs. Some styles have such small cuffs they must be zippered shut on the bottom seam. This tight style enhances the Oriental, or Architec- tural whole-body ef- fect, which is not as feminine as the more glamorous approach. Today's fashion reflects the old with petticoats, and lace and cords and sweaters, but no mat- ter what style or look it is all new in the mirror of 1983. June Sawyer E ce ca Sag nai P P AI RR
