Remember wearing scrunchies and Doc Martens as a teen? Dust off those mom jeans and turn on your Nirvana playlist—the 90s are back in fashion. This renaissance goes beyond nostalgia. From grunge revolt to Calvin Klein simplicity, the 90s had many trends. Modern designers are updating these trends for a new generation.
Grind Goes Glam
Think tattered jeans and oversized flannels are old? Think again. Combine distressed denim with a feminine blouse or elegant blazer for a unique look. Flannels are also being designed with cropped silhouettes and unexpected decorations.
Slip Dresses Dominate
Slip dresses, 90s icons, are back and slinkier than ever. It’s not only for the red carpet this time. For daylight, layer a bulky knit sweater over yours; for nighttime, add dramatic jewelry and shoes.
King (and Queen) Comfort
Remember those comfy mom jeans? They’re high-waisted again. Comfort doesn’t just mean jeans—think big cargo pants, chunky sneakers, and the tracksuit (without the tasty sweatsuit phase, fortunately). This laid-back look suits our casual-cool lifestyles.
Accessorize Seriously
Statement accessories were popular in the 1990s and still are. These quirky accessories, from oversize headbands and claw clips to tiny sunglasses and bucket hats, give flare to every look.
Conclusion
Next time you clean out your closet, don’t throw out those 90s clothes. You can simply incorporate them into your modern outfit with enough imagination. Doesn’t the 90s fashion comeback celebrate uniqueness and fun with fashion?
