Four decades of campus fashion
Flashback on 40 years of Concordia flare
Fashion is a benchmark that can clearly distinguish eras, from 1970s sideburns and feathered ’80s hair to ’90s grunge shirts and ’00s skinny ties. Over the last four decades, it’s remarkable to see how styles and trends changed — and re-emerged — on the Loyola and Sir George Williams campuses.
As we celebrate Concordia’s 40th anniversary, we take a look back on four decades of campus fashion.
1970s
