The ‘90s Are Having A Major Comeback In Fashion And Beyond

Do you find yourself watching Friends and wanting what the characters are wearing?

While ‘90s fashion has long had a bad rep, it seems like it’s experiencing a big turnaround. Those baggy jeans and the XXL sized jewellery are officially back en vogue. So say adios to skinny jeans and hola to the baggy cut that ruled the ‘90s. Ultra-wide legs are not only having a moment in fashion, they’re without a doubt more comfortable to wear. The return of roomier denim also comes with plenty of variety in terms of materials, colours, and even shapes and styles. Highly versatile, they can be worn with boots, sneakers and heels.

Minimalist jewellery given the XXL treatment is another ‘90s trend that is making a comeback. Oversized jewellery helps to amp up any basic outfit. However, don’t go overboard with the design. Stick to hoops, ear studs, bangles and chains in silver, gold or rose gold. Remember that things can still be minimalistic when enlarged.

Another blast from the past we’re seeing more of now are hoodies and loose shirts. The casual, comfy look is being catapulted by the music industry, which is having a ‘90s revival of its own in terms of sounds. Take Beabadoobee’s latest album, Fake It Flowers, for instance. A dreamy blend of grunge, shoegaze and Britpop, the singer-songwriter’s intimate music is one of many hot albums of the moment that reeks of ‘90s nostalgia. Even the gaming industry got the memo; vintage gaming consoles and even the Tamagotchi are back in fashion. So if you want to stay relevant in style and entertainment right now, what you have to do is turn back the clock 30 years.
