The vibrant fashion trends of the ’90s have made a triumphant return, resonating deeply with millennials and even those of us who don’t quite fit that demographic. As reported by an article on TODAY, retailers have caught onto these nostalgic styles, which evoke fond memories and emotions. It’s not just the sense of nostalgia that is driving consumers to embrace these looks; the influence of popular shows and movies also plays a significant role.
For instance, classics like Friends are now streaming on platforms like Netflix, shaping our wardrobe choices alongside contemporary films like To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before, based on Jenny Han’s beloved YA novel. This film, introduced to me by my daughter, has ignited a passion for its fashion—especially the stunning outfits.
As someone who grew up in the ’90s, flipping through the Delias catalog with my sisters and dreaming of our favorite outfits feels like just yesterday. Recently, seeing friends post about Target offering nearly identical outfits to those worn by Alicia Silverstone in Clueless transported me back in time.
But plaid skirts aren’t the only ’90s staples making waves again. Let’s explore some of the most exciting comebacks:
Bomber Jackets
A bomber jacket is a versatile piece that pairs perfectly with skirts, jeans, or even sweatpants. With a rainbow of colors available, it’s hard to resist adding more than one to your closet. Remember the nostalgia of that letter jacket from high school?
Crop Tops
Don’t shy away from showing off your midriff—no matter your age. Paired with high-waisted jeans or skirts, crop tops are both trendy and comfortable.
Two-Toned Denim
Why settle for one wash when you can have two? Two-toned jeans were a must-have in the ’90s, and they’re making a stylish comeback.
Overalls
These are making a resurgence everywhere. I practically lived in my overalls throughout college in the early ’90s, and I must admit, I adore them even more now.
Chunky Sneakers
These statement shoes are back in style, and they’re taking over stores in all price ranges. Get ready to embrace the chunky sneaker trend—it’s going to be everywhere!
Neon Colors
I remember rocking neon colors in high school, and they’re just as fun today. Bright oranges, pinks, and yellows are catching my daughter’s eye, bringing back the playful spirit of the ’90s.
High-Waisted Denim
Mom jeans are officially in! Say goodbye to low-rise skinny jeans and hello to comfort that flatters without any awkwardness.
Denim Skirts
I used to buy a new denim skirt every year for the school year, so seeing them back in stores was a delightful surprise.
Whether you have some ’90s gems tucked away in your wardrobe or are tempted to shop for new pieces, I encourage you to embrace the revival. At 43, I’m all in—clearly, the ’90s had timeless styles that many of us still adore.
