Sheridan Moore, 17, who has taken a fashion strategies class, says she stuck with silver because she wanted the fact the prom outfits are made of duct tape to be obvious. However, to add some pop, she used red tape to decorate her shoes, which are topped with white duct tape flowers, each with a red center. (ROBERT JOHNSON/Standard-Examiner)

PLAIN CITY — It took Sheridan Moore more than 45 hours and 25 rolls of duct tape to construct a prom dress that was not only indestructible, but also was worthy of landing her in the Top 10 of a nationwide contest.

Sheridan, 17, who will be a senior at Fremont High School, entered the Stuck at Prom Duck Tape scholarship contest after hearing about it from a friend.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- Anchorage residents are apparently not dressing to impress.

That's the upshot of Travel and Leisure Magazine's reader poll, which put the residents of Alaska's largest city at the bottom when it comes to being on the top of style.

The magazine ran an online poll asking readers to rank 35 American cities on such things as best nightlife, best burgers, best New Year's Eve celebrations, etc.

By a three-tenths of a point, Anchorage landed just below Salt Lake City for having the worst-dressed residents.

(ERIN HOOLEY/Standard-Examiner) Ream’s has eight stores throughout Utah, and the Layton store at 1040 N. Main St. is the largest, with its wall of boots and jeans displaying more than 2,000 pairs of boots and thousands of jeans.

Ream's hits the mainstream: Western fashion gains in popularity

LAYTON – Western fashion has been around a long time, but those in the business are beginning to see more cross-over into regular fashion.

Jodi Jones, store manager at the Layton Ream’s Boots & Jeans, was surprised to see so many girls looking for boots to go with homecoming dresses, and even brides searching for boots to match their wedding dress.

It hasn’t always been like that, especially since Western wear has always been about a year-and-a-half behind the fashion world, according to Brian Hulce, regional manager for Ream’s. It wasn’t until the early 2000s that Western fashion seemed to catch up.
