Winter trends never “seam” to end at samo

Winter is here and the Samo students are unveiling their looks for the season. The Instagram account “@samofashionweek” proves as a great source of what is on the rise for winter fashion at Samo. It documents multiple pictures of students' outfits throughout each season. One of the anonymous faces behind the account said they admire the different styles around campus. 

“Samo is very diverse, so in turn, we see so many stylistic outfits around campus. Our account features the outfits of people who aren’t afraid to show up to school in a fun outfit,” said @samofashionweek. 

Despite the originality of each outfit, a couple of staple pieces have been spotted being worn by students. Timelessness, coolness and rugged charm are flaunted across campus with oversized leather jackets and big wooly scarves to keep warm. @samofashionweek’s consensus was that scarves were essential for surviving Samo winter.

The overall theme of this 24-25 school year is a revival of the early 2000’s. The account features a lot more boots being worn daily, skinny jeans and fur-lined jackets. Earlier @samofashionweek’s posts show us the running trend at Samo with a more casual look. Instead of jackets, there were more hoodies, instead of boots, there were more sneakers and crocs. An essence of polished and effortless chicness has infiltrated Samo grounds.

While walking through the halls, scrolling through the @samofashionweeks grid, or simply asking them ourselves students agreed that scarves are the essential piece for winter at Samo. Lulu Poretta, (’27) said she noticed a lot more self-expression among students through their clothes by choosing different styles.

“I’ve seen a lot of people basing outfits around their mood, like wearing more flashy and flattering things when they’re happy. If someone is in a dull mood, they take more inspiration from the ’90s with baggy jeans and shirts,” said Poretta.
