1990s Comeback

There's no denying it, the 90s are back.

Each decade, there seems to be an interesting trend in fashion of looking back 20 years. Beginning roughly in the 1980s, this pattern so far has continued without fail, bringing a revival of fashions from the 1990s to the 2010s. This inevitable fate initially seemed strange to me, seeing that this is the decade I was born in. While the concept of the 90s being considered "vintage" continues to blow my mind, I can't say that I didn't see it coming, based on the 20 year theory. So far, I have found it interesting to see how the fashion industry and its consumers have interpreted the styles of the 1990s and adapted them to current times.

This, along with a later series of posts, will showcase examples of fashion trends that have shown up between 2013-present


Chunky Shoes

Thick shoes were all the rage in the 90s. From platforms, combat boots, Doc Martens, and hiking boots, each style had its place. Today, these types of shoes have made their way back to the racks.

These shoes are sure to make an elevating statement.

  1. The 90's have always been my favorite age, I breathe grunge. All of my favorite bands came from this time, and flannels are my second skin.
