It seems that every past decade has seen a fashion revival
in recent years and now it seems it is the turn of the 1990s that is in the
spotlight. With the likes of Henry Holland and Topshop as well as bands like Little
Mix championing the 90s look never has the decade been more in style.
In fact the band have said in interviews that the characters
like Kelly Kapowski from Saved by the Bell and Hillary Banks from the Fresh
Prince of Bell-Air were all style icons of theirs – a glowing endorsement of
90s fashion if ever there were. But what
looks should you take from the 90s to make your own?
Tie-dye and neon
brights
Anyone who lived through the 90s will remember global
hypercolour t-shirts, tie-dye and neon brights (you only have to look at Saved
by the Bell to see how popular neon's were). However, the look now is some what
more pared down but that said bright colours are definitely having a fashion
moment. If you want to wear the look though make sure that you don't go for
head to toe tie-dye or neon brights as it can be a little overpowering. However, a graphic print tee or tie-dye tee
in neon colours will be a perfect way of getting that 90s feel into your
outfit.
However, one great way to channel the trend is with great
accessories so think bright and bold fashion and costume jewellery with big and
bright stones. Or why not try women's scarves in a bright colour – and by
wearing it as a hair band you will look perfect for the summer and channel the
90s trend. Because scarves for women are
so versatile you will have a nod to the trend without going over the top –
what's not to love!

Acid and stonewash jeans
Another key 90s trend is acid and stonewash jeans and in
fact in some ways the paler the better. So now is the time to put those dark
wash jeans to the back of the wardrobe and get out the lighter style jeans and
they are perfect to pair with neon brights. Better still get some ripped jeans
and you will look like you have come straight out if the 90s.
Crop tops
OK this may be only for those with the flattest stomach but
crop tops are certainly having a bit of a fashion moment, especially with the
likes of Rihanna, Jessie J and Little Mix all wearing crop tops if you can pull
it off it is definitely the perfect look to go for.
Grunge
Think Johnny Depp and Kate Moss from their 90s heyday – so
go for slightly big and baggy looks with a slight unkempt feel to it but still
uber stylish.
