How to dress in the style of the 90s: 10 current images
Each season, designers rethink past eras. In the spring-summer and future autumn, they often turned to the 90th, one of the most controversial decades in recent history. This era has spawned many trends, and the cult things of those times have become classics of today. Jeans, miniskirts, combination dresses and bombers are firmly established in our wardrobe. We have collected images in which things from the decade, when we all watched the Beverly Hills 90210, Friends and bright video clips on MTV, are becoming relevant today.
Plaid shirt and wide trousers
Inevitably referring to the image of Kurt Cobain, the plaid shirt, thanks in large part to Cobain, has become a classic, in which both in sweet sleep and in work is appropriate. Of course, if you wear it with jeans, the image will inevitably fall into that same decade. But wide trousers are a must have of modern wardrobe, which should not be overlooked. Particularly interesting is the combination of cells and stripes, so experiment with print.
Bomber and miniskirt
The time of change required brightness and convenience at any time of the year, and the bomber jacket was a universal thing, suitable for three seasons out of four. For the generation of the 90s, he was a cult article of clothing. In a difficult economic period, practicality meant a lot. First, the bomber became the subject of street culture - dancers and rap artists borrowed it from baseball players, and later, with the popularization of hip-hop and the emergence of MTV, he slowly moved into the wardrobe of young people of different views and tastes.
Long jacket and mini
The long jacket remains an echo of the power dressing style and the 80s, and the mini is a new landmark. The fearless generation easily mixed one with the other and received a unique variant, which by its apparent contrast could not remain a fleeting phenomenon. So in the 90s there was a version of the costume - daring at the expense of the length of the skirt and business at the expense of the jacket. If this combination seems ordinary to you - make a bet on the jacket (the more it is, the better), the contrast will be impressive.
Shorts and high socks
By the 90th, hip-hop is becoming ubiquitous, which inevitably led to a transformation of style. From here we got all the experiments with clothing of large sizes and sports direction. So, shorts are becoming a popular and basic element of the wardrobe as an alternative to the ubiquitous miniskirt. High socks are also in honor.
Braid and mini
The miniskirt is a real heroine of the 90s. Not a single speech (or poster) by Spice Girls could not do without at least one ultrashort skirt - the girls actively exposed their legs. A cropped leather biker jacket as an echo of punk culture in combination with a short skirt looked boldly, but did not go. Like a bomber jacket, it is easily combined with dresses and trousers, and designers present variations on this theme from season to season.
Dress combination and hoody
Glory to the dress combination, including Kate Moss, walked from one party to another in Calvin Klein dresses. The story will long remember the ease with which the model wore weightless translucent combinations - with sneakers and sandals. Today it is again relevant. The dress combination is an element of the pajama style, which has long been perceived calmly in the city. But designers play on contrasts and suggest combining a combination with hoodies and sweatshirts - like, for example, the Off-White brand.
Linen Shirt and Boyfriend Jeans
Jeans became so familiar in the 80s that no one was embarrassed to come to them on the carpet. By the 2000s, the waist was significantly understated, but in the 90s, thanks to the Malibu Rescuers, the girls appreciated the high waist, making the legs incredibly long and attractive. And let Pamela Anderson show it with a swimsuit, the reception worked perfectly with jeans, which even more popularized the heroine of the TV series "Friends" and "Pretty Woman" Julia Roberts.
Oversize suit
In the 80s, the oversize suit was designed to emphasize the seriousness of working women. The word "career" became one of the most popular, and the deliberate masculinity was firmly in fashion and lasted until the 2000s. In the 90s, the costume “not in size” was appropriate not only in the workplace, but also on walks and even the dance floor. He gained popularity thanks to all the same screen stars - it was in this costume that Julia Roberts received her first Golden Globe for her role in the film “Steel Magnolias” in 1990 (and she chose such an outfit for carpets more than once), and Scully, we don’t even imagine anything else.
Printed T-shirt and Denim Jumpsuit
Thanks to the movie "Batman Returns" and Michelle Pfeiffer in the role of the catwoman, the word "jumpsuit" acquires a synonym - "catsuite". Of course, not every girl dared to wear latex overalls, emphasizing every curve of the body, but the overalls themselves in the classic incarnation, namely from denim, were very popular. They were comfortable to go to clubs, ride a bike and just walk. As for T-shirts - the influence of tele-dependence in the 90s gave its fruits. Recognizable logos, faces and designs flashed everywhere. Today, the designers are returning to this idea, and the popularity of Hoodie Thrasher, the excitement around the Vetements t-shirt with the DHL logo and the familiar “FILA” at the Gosha Rubchinsky show proves that this is again in demand.
Baby doll dress and rough shoes
The epoch of postmodernism in fashion is a mixture of completely different styles. Young and free, the heroines of the cult Beverly Hills 90210 series in the 90s loved the combination of flying doll dolls and coarse shoes. It is difficult to challenge the showiness: playing on the contrast of tenderness and grunge and today is popular with both designers and bloggers (in any street-style report there are plenty of examples of this technique). These dresses loved Courtney Love, so much so that she even released her collection in conjunction with the popular online store Nasty Gal.
