With the slow progression from winter to spring, some fashionable clothing trends have made it through the transition at East. East students were asked about their clothing preferences.

Using a random number generator, a poll was sent to 40 students, ten per grade level, on Apr. 2 to determine what fashion trends are the most popular within the school.

Beginning with shoes, the poll consisted of five categories: Converse, Vans, Nike, Adidas or other. Based on the sample, there was a tie between Vans and Nike at 40 percent and Converse at 20 percent.

The students then had to determine their favorite trend for pants. They had to decide between leggings, jeans, skinny jeans, mom jeans or other. Out of the respondents, the students chose both leggings and skinny jeans at 40 percent and mom jeans at 20 percent, as well. The students were also asked if they preferred ripped jeans or not. 100 percent of the respondents said yes, and none said no. As well as determining whether or not they preferred ripped jeans, students were also asked to decide the fashion in which they wear their jeans. Checking all that apply, the students chose high waisted most often at 80 percent.

Concerning the style of shirt, the students were asked to choose between: crop tops, short sleeve, long sleeve, tank tops or other. At 60 percent, long sleeve was the number one choice with short sleeve at 40 percent.

According to the survey, students were asked if they preferred: jackets, hoodies, crewnecks, crop top hoodies or other. Students had also chosen hoodies at 80 percent and crewnecks at 40 percent.

After determining which trends students favored the most, the last question asked the students their favorite brand. Out of the choices, Nike, Adidas or other, students preferred Nike over Adidas with 60 percent of the votes for Nike.
