December 1990 Fashion Etc.: Denim, Body Image & The World’s First Bath Puffs

Start listening

Some of the readers in charge of fashion freak it, like stylist Daisy von Furth’s fun and quirky denim looks. Others, like Shelly Franklin, went to a Gap and grabbed the first seven garments she saw. The two co-exist uneasily over 12 pages in the December 1990 issue’s one and only fashion feature. (Which stylist did you prefer? Tell us at 720-SASSY-GO!) Beyond that, we get a makeup enthusiast getting mentored by an expert; an essay about how weight-related beauty standards change over time, an absolutely cuckoo Making It project, and much much more. Put down your new-fangled bath puff and listen!
