2 - The Michigan Daily - Fall Fashion - Thursday, October 28, 1993 Fashion in the Real World? This is the story of twelve students who we at the Daily picked to model together for two weeks - to find out whathappens when people stop being polite - and start getting real. The Real World. Hmm. Time out fashion fans. "The Real World" is nothing but a non-defini- tive sound byte (a redundant phrase if ever there was one). Typical MTV speak. We don't buy it.Push yourself to examine your definition of real, and your definition of the world, and then it becomes something else. Is the "real world,"as MTV would like us to believe,a bunchof twentysomethings put up in a post-modernized apart- ment where the camera never leaves the room? And ask yourself this: is the real world a bunch of students dressed up in borrowed clothes trying not to get dirty? It's been our real world for the past month, but we won't try to tell you that it's yours. Fashion falls into the same unde- finable category as the "real world." What is fashion? Is it what Cindy Crawford wears on House of Style? What the Bongo Man wears as he spins his poetry on North University? Or is it what our models picked out to wear on the following pages? It is all of these. And it is none of them. It would be distorted and overly p.c. to say that everything is fashion- able. But itis neitherof those things to say that every article of clothing - every choker, every velvet pantsuit, every cowboy hat-is fashion. Fash- ion is what you wear. "Fashionable" is simply a time constraint imposed on fashion by the clothing industry. With that in mind, examine the following pages. Look not only at the clothing on the bodies, but at the locations, the activities, the facial expressions. These don't contribute to the fashion, but they have been chosen with our sensibilities toward the fashionable. And Fashionable is key in the Real World. Or is it? Fall Fashion is a collaborative ef- fort on part of the Photography, Arts and Display staffs, and would not have been possible without the help of a lot of non-Daily people as well. We would like to thank all of the stores who were gracious enough to lend us their clothing: U. Produc- tions, Fantasy Attic Costume Shop, Bivouac, Hudson's, Light Wraps Vin- tage Clothing, Orchid Lane, Harry's Army Surplus, Banana Republic, Collected Works, Carl Sterr, Van Boven, Wilderness Outfitters and the jewelery designs of Michelle Chase. Thanks toAmer's for lending us their roof and table space. Special thanks to all our wonderful models. And finally, thanks to all our read- ers. For creating the fashion, deciding on the fashionable, and molding and remolding the real world. Whatever that may be. - The Editors Fall Fashion Staff Editors Anastasia Banicki (Photography), Susan Isaak (Photography), Mary Koukhab (Photography), Darcy Lockman (Arts), Elizabeth Shaw (Arts) Special Sections Manager Cover Photo Renee Huckle Susan Isaak Models Priya Patel, Sina Lewis, Shanti Lal, Kevin Reed, Jessica Cordero, Sonya Brown, Karrin Kober, Jeff Angobaldo, Russell Hughes, Je- Won Hwang, Gayathri Arumugham, Chris Vasell Support Staff Rebecca Margolis, Doug Kanter, Evan Petrie, Michelle Guy, Sharon Musher, Tracy Suykerbuyk, Jonathan Lurie, Jessie Halladay, Nima Hodaei, Melissa Rose Bernardo, Johanna Flies, Andrew Schafer, Josh Dubow Realize the dream of ca ling your own shots!
