After Bard Administration’s continuous rejection of the popular summer fashion statement of optional clothing, students are taking advantage of the weather’s rich resources to create their own easy to wear and, quite literally, all-natural fashion. This past week alone, several students have been seen wearing various items of clothing made out of a combination of the Indian soy bread Tempeh (Find this bread at your local Hannaford or Health Food Store!) and their own hair. It seems that students can’t get enough of this new trend. “I love how the clothing is so comfortable and so Bardian at the same time,” said one anonymous female student. “Now I shave my hair to make my clothes, my head doesn’t itch and I can finally follow the school’s shaved hair trend!”. Current non-wearers of this new fashion have taken strong notice. “I’m so proud of these kids making smart choices with their food and the environment,” said Katrina Light, head of BardEats. “Tempeh as socks? I would have never thought of that.” However, not all of the feedback has been positive. Bardvark has received reports of grocery store prices being driven up due to this food-based fad. Still, this will not be the only organic fashion coming out of Bard. The school’s fashion committee and other volunteers are coming together to make another masterpiece: shoes made out of banana peels and condom wrappers.
