What would Lee do if suddenly the Prince look becomes passe? "I'm flexible, and I get tired of things really easily, so I guess it wouldn't bug me too much," mused the 19-year-old Washtenaw Community College student. Around town there is no chance that Prince, or former University student Madonna, will go out of style. Jenny Moore, manager of The Merry- Go-Round, said that the store carries a line of Prince clothing ("Purple Wear,'' naturally). It also carries a line of Madonna clothing, of course. A typical Madonna outfit might con- sist of stirrup pants, an oversize shirt with a lace t-shirt underneath, and the omnipresent rubber bracelets. Who buys this stuff? Moore says she feels that most Madonna dressers are in junior and senior high school. The Prince look ap- peals to males and females from ages 12 to 25, she says. 0 z w Y w w A University Rock-A-Like winner Karen Berman (above) shows her Tina Turner attire.

By Tyler Paetkau and Vibeke Laroi J OE STUD struts toward those awesome thirty-foot waves, glancing back to catch Susie's eye and grinning to himself as his light blue boxer-style trunks slide into the refreshing water. And then something mysterious hap- pens-as he emerges from the water, his once solid trunks are now adorned with sporty little sharks. Swimwear is taking a daring and creative twist this year, and the new Jantzen solid trunk that magically displays sharks when wet is just one example of the trend. Women will be revealing even more this summer, with the high cut legs and bikinis returning to prominence. The high-legged maillot makes legs look longer and slimmer for those with the not-so-perfect legs, according to Kathy Macksey, manager of the Hudson's Clothing Department. The bikinis have become especially popular among high school-aged girls, who are still for- tunate enough to have "young, flat stomachs." This summer's one pieces are "more exciting than in the past," said Macksey. The new suits are covering up less thigh and less of everything else. High-legged styles with openings on the sides-embellished with bows, buttons, and rings-are the biggest sellers this year, she added. The number one brand name, Ocean Pacific, is "like a designer jean, though not that much more expensive than the other brands," Macksey said. The average price for misses' one-piece is $50, with juniors' sizes averaging near $36. "The customer needs more than one bathing suit now," Macksey said, at- testing to swimwear's new status as a fashion item. Women need different suits for swimming, tanning, and lounging, and the modern, fashion- conscious woman usually keeps 2 or 3 in her wardrobe, she said. For a mere $50 per suit, who would dare pass it up? Bright prints, especially florals, and neons with black backgrounds are the most desirable color patterns for the upcoming beach outings. Beach-goers will also see Mickey Mouse and other Disney characters featured on some suits-a fad which may be partly at- tributed to the celebration of Mickey's 50th birthday last year. Another new suit brandishes an African influence, with black jungle animals scattered on. a radiant white background. Peggy Watson, events coordinator at Hudson's, contrasted today's swimsuits with those of ten years ago, which ten- ded to be bulkier and unflattering. They were full of constructions, like wires to take the place of a bra, and solid- colored with skirted or boxer-style bot- toms. "A woman would gain a few pounds just by getting her suit wet," Watson remarked, adding that today's suits are "more comfortable and a bit more daring, with an updated, stylish look." Cotton suits have become __________ 5 2 ;s oj G TIME especially popular because, according to Watson, they are more comfortable, don't snag, and "swim well." Though women should be prepared to expose a little more skin this summer, the trend in men's swimwear is toward a more modest look, said Maury Maslin, manager of Hudson's Men's Store. The mid-thigh length boxer style swimming trunk is the most fashionable this year, although Maslin expects to sell more of the barely-there Speedos "when it warms up and men d oc ,: . a x- -- FOR' THE J IS 1 f decide they need tanning." Some men are also opting for the knee-length California surfer style trunks, often referred to as "gnarlies" by the sun- seeking crowd. The matching 100 percent cotton top, or camp shirt, is a hot item this year. Most expensive of these, at $60, is the Polo shirt, Masling said. Shirts start at around $20, and trunks range from $22- 40. Hawaiian prints, brighter patterns, and black geometrics characterize /AUSTIN REED.
