TrendWatch
Hi guys! I’m Ramyanee, one of your new Trendwatch writers! I’m an upper from New Jersey, and I live in Bancroft Hall. I was born in India and moved to the United States when I was one year old. I’ve been sewing and designing clothes since I was 13 years old, and I’m excited to combine my love of writing and fashion to bring you the newest trends and showcase the Exonians who flaunt them!
Hi everyone! I’m Leah, the other Trendwatch writer! I’m a three-year upper in Amen Hall from Pennsylvania. I have loved fashion for as long as I can remember. I wanted to write Trendwatch from the moment I read the column in my brother’s Exonian in 2012. I can’t wait to follow all you fashion-forward Exonians in 2019!
Saturday night’s WPEA Winter Formal was a fashionable kickoff to 2019 for Exonians. In between posing for photos and dancing with the band, we had plenty of time to spot up-and-coming trends for the new year!
Morgan Lee ‘21 and Avery Napier ‘21 were spotted wearing silky metallic dresses. Lee wore a gold bodycon dress with a slit on both sides, and Napier shimmered in a silver, loose-fitting slip dress.
Some students took the sparkle to the next level with sequined dresses. Hanna Pak ‘19 blinded us with her embellished halter top paired with black dress pants, and Katie Yang ‘19 glimmered in a mini bodycon dress covered in silver sequins that shined underneath the lights.
Exonians also showed off their school spirit with bright red outfits. Meredith Thomas ‘21 rocked a slim-fitting maxi dress with a ruffled neckline, and Mimi Lavin ‘20 flaunted a red mini-dress.
Many were ready to jump into the New Year with dazzling jumpsuits. Kate Denny ‘19 combined two trends with a glittering silver tube top and pants to match. Beez Dentzer ‘20 killed it in a scarlet red jumpsuit with matching red lipstick.
Some guys kept it classy and casual with no ties and a monochrome color palette. Ethan Aguilar ‘22 and Justin Li ‘20 both sported black-on-black button-downs and blazers. Others, such as Isaac Choate ‘19 and Ray Alvarez-Adorno ‘19, stood out with their unique outfits. Choate stepped up to the plate and paired a navy blazer with a black button-down. Alvarez-Adorno stood out in a red plaid blazer layered over a grey turtleneck.
We’re super excited to be your next Trendwatch writers and bring the hottest trends into the hands of Exonians!
