Although nearly two decades have passed since the years of the Spice Girls and Furby toys, ‘90s fashion trends remain in the windows of clothing stores, on the pages of fashion magazines and on the students of LSU.
Summer ‘16 clothing wear has especially revealed the popularity of ‘90s pieces. Women are incorporating chokers, denim mini skirts, jelly sandals and other ‘90s garments into their wardrobe.
Nineties’ fashion trends followed an “anything goes” theme, giving the once frowned upon outfits and garments of the past a chance to be mixed and matched in style. Today, University students follow a similar theme mixing modern styles with ‘90s pieces. Here are a few ‘90s pieces spotted on LSU’s campus:
Jelly Sandals
Light and airy, these sandals are worn by all ages. They come in a variety of colors and some have sparkles. These sandals were once a thing of the past but now can be seen on many.
Choker necklace
Any woman born in the ‘90s knows about the choker necklace. It was gone, but not forgotten, for some time and now has made its way back onto the streets and the red carpet.
Flannels
Music artists, movie stars and models of the ‘90s incorporated flannel shirts in their everyday wear. Whether worn around their waist or paired with another top, both men and women wore this classic must-have.
Grunge
From music to fashion, grunge styles peaked in the ‘90s. While not as popular today, ‘90s grunge influences still remain in many fashion trends. Ripped, teared, dark and baggy sized clothes can be found on artists such as Rihanna and Gwen Stefani.
Denim Mini Skirts
Classic and timeless, the denim mini skirt has been brought back many times in a variety of styles. Today, the most popular style for a denim mini skirt is to be high waisted often paired with tucked-in or crop tops.
Crop Tops
Another classic and recreated style, the crop top has seen many lengths and extremities. The movie “Clueless” popularized the crop top in the ‘90s and since then the mid-section revealing top has been revamped and modernized many times.
