This week's Brock Boy and Girl are polar opposites, and that's why we love them.
Joe, our Brock Boy, screams personal fashion because of his total disregard for traditional fashion rules. The fact that he boldly wears no-no colour combinations like black and navy blue impressed us. Not to mention the fact that he reconstructed his pullover sweater into a zip-up hoodie all on his own, and uses patches galore to make personal statements and fashion statements.
Our Brock Girl Amanda stands completely opposite to Joe in both her style and her answers. Her look was back to basics with extremely well coordinated neutrals. Cream is not an easy colour to wear for most skin tones, but she pulls it off beautifully. Not to mention that her jacket was fantastic.

Brock Boy: Joe Soulliere, third year sociology

As a child, would you have described yourself as fashionable?
If sweatpants with wolves on them were fashionable, then no because I had sweatpants with Charlotte Hornets on them.

What would you have worn to the Oscars?
I am not sure what I would have worn in terms of clothing, but in regards to the type of auto I would have worn, it would have been a Dodge Women's while rocking out to "Hoogie Boogie Land" by Complete.

Who is a better dresser: God or Satan? Why?
If we are talking about stereotypical images of God and Satan, Satan would be better dressed if he had God's beard. If we are talking about actual God and Satan, God (for obvious reasons).

Would you support a university-wide uniform policy? Why?
If the uniform policy was wolf sweatpants with a white T-shirt, no. If the policy was Charlotte Hornets sweatpants with a white Niagara Falls wolf shirt, no.


Brock Girl: Amanda Girardi, third year media communications

As a child, would you have described yourself as fashionable?
I tried my best. I regularly tried to keep up with trends and did my best to be unique at the same time.

What would you have worn to the Oscars?
Hmmm … Either Dolce and Gabbana or Valentino. Something sleek and sexy.

Who is a better dresser: God or Satan? Why?
WHAT?! Definitely God … very white and elegant.

Would you support a university-wide uniform policy? Why?
I don't think so. I wore uniforms in high school and I liked them, but I'd rather express myself through fashion in university. It's much more fun!
