1990-1999 Colour Casual Chic

The fashion in the 1990s was the genesis of a sweeping shift in the western world: the beginning of the adoption of tattoos,body piercings aside from ear piercing and to a lesser extent, other forms of body modification such as branding. This brought back the indifferent, anti-conformist approach to fashion, leading to the popularisation of the casual chic look; this included T-shirts, jeans, hoodies, and trainers, a trend which continued into the 2000s.

The Most Mesmerizing and Unforgettable '90s Outfits
Winona Ryder: Style Icon (1991) Ryder was the ultimate '90s "It" Girl. In the early part of the decade, she scored a number of roles in cult-classic films, including Edward Scissorhands and Reality Bites, and her tomboyish style quickly caught the public's attention. Her raven pixie cut and all-black red-carpet ensembles became her signatures. Plus, it didn't hurt that she had Johnny Depp on her arm for a number of years. Say it with us: Winona forever.

My So-Called Life (1994) Angela Chase and her misfit friends gave a voice to all of the mid-'90s teens who felt like outsiders. Her oversized flannels and combat boots were characteristic of her unconfident character, and she won our hearts in the very first episode after dyeing her hair Crimson Glow, saying: "When Rayanne Graff told me my hair was holding me back I had to listen, because she wasn't just talking about my hair, she was talking about my life."

Sex and the City (1998) Two words: Carrie Bradshaw. We can't even begin to count how many trends that Sarah Jessica Parker's character singlehandedly started, but many of the world's most well-known fashion brands (we're looking at you, Manolo Blahnik) owe her quite a bit of thanks.

Marc Jacobs for Perry Ellis Grunge Collection (1992) In a career-defining moment, Jacobs, who was then the creative director at Perry Ellis, showed a grunge-inspired collection for spring/summer 1993 that promptly got him fired. The layered plaids, cashmere thermals, beanies, and Doc Martens that he sent down the runway were the staples of his generation, and they all still resonate today.

Empire Records (1995) Liv Tyler was the ultimate '90s babe—who could forget her role, alongside Alicia Silverstone, in the '93 video for Aerosmith's "Crazy"?—and her look as Corey in this classic flick made her an instant icon. The cropped fuzzy sweater, plaid schoolgirl skirt, and lace-up combat boots that she made famous are now all wardrobe classics, and were even back on the runways last season.

Gwen Stefani: Style Icon (1995) The face of the SoCal ska-punk movement in the mid-'90s happened to be a bleached blonde ball of energy by the name of Gwen Stefani. The No Doubt frontwoman was known for her athletic build and style, often performing in nothing but cargo pants and a cropped beater, topped off with a bindi and a head full of tiny buns. Nearly two decades later, Stefani still has the best abs in the biz.
