How do you feel about the whole "babygirl 2001 cyber sailor moon bratz barbie hello kitty stickers on my chest" trend that's going around on Tumblr and Insta? It's kind of like a fusion between the whole "soft ghetto"/"cyber ghetto" thing that was big up until like 2013 and the "~*babydoll nymphet lolita*~" aesthetic that's still popular now.

Bit pointless because everything is no longer in trend. It's like bringing the entire 80s back and no one wanting to dress it.

I think it's stupid those who still "think its the 90s" and half the time they were either being born or young enough to have seen the millennium. The whole "I'M A 90S KID BECAUSE I LIKED OLD CARTOON NETWORK AND HAD A FURBY"

Can you blame them, though? This generation has nothing going for it, as far as fashion goes. Aside from gothninja (which looks ridiculous outside of carefully posed photoshoots and fashion editorials), all we've got are throwbacks on top of throwbacks all the way to the fucking 40s.

Wow, I've been dressing this way since 2011 and everyone in my family thinks I have no taste, which I agree with.

I used to dress very stylishly before I got fat during my depression, but even now after I lost weight I can't seem to let go of this "style" because of how simple it is. I don't think much about it aside from color coordinating (black or gray tops and jeans 90% of the time though) so I can throw this on and be out of the door within 2 mins of getting ready.

sometimes it's okay when it's not too over-the-top. I like the halter-looking tank tops and stuff. I don't like the borderline-nymphet looks.

Those chokers, though, like the tattoo ones… look very strange on people who aren't super skinny or people without giraffe necks. I see too many middle/high school girls wearing them.

If anything from the 90s made a real comeback I think it'd be funny to see actual-scummy-as-fuck Courtney Love grungy chicks walking around in 2015. I know a lot of mainstream fast-fashion stores touted a super sanitized "grunge revival" thing previously.

Honestly, ~edgy~ is so stylish it's not even edgy anymore. I think the reason normcore exists is because things have come full circle. There's nothing interesting or unique about dressing this way. It's the same shit that was cool two years ago but with different imagery. It's been done. It's more interesting to dress like a normalfag now.

This so much. In early 2000's, when fashion designers were starting to reach back for 50s and 60s fashion, it was becoming obvious that they're running out of the ideas. Between 2004 and 2006 there was a short "Russian chic" period, with velvet uniform jackets and coats with brass buttons, satin bubble skirts, fake fur wraps and lots of frilly blouses, but after this we went back to sixties and then to eighties, which was probably the worst fashion decade ever.

What makes me wonder, is that why no one tries to bring back 20s fashion. It was pretty practical and easy to accesorize. There were some attempts after Gatsby release, but they got a weak response.

I keep hearing how 3D printers will change modern fashion, but I'm not really seeing it.

Maybe it's because I don't talk to people that young, but most of the ~90s KID~ people I've talked to were born around 93-95. And the only ones who really have some ideas of what the fads were, are people like me, born in that time but have older siblings who participated in all of that stuff and either passed some of it to us, or they're romanticizing memories that they didn't really experience. And the people who seem to really know what the 90s were about were born in the last bits of the 80s or 90-91

>20s
>cover up
The 20s were the decade of exposed knees and shoulders, when women first started to shave their armpits because they weren't covered up for once. They also stopped wearing as many constrictive undergarments and unless you had the money for a good brassiere, them titties were flyin' free. Well, almost.
I think it's more because you need to be very skinny with a rectangular body type to pull this style off.

Uh anon, even if they were 90s babies or embryos, shows do not show validation.Have you considered those who had siblings who were '90's kids' and passed shit down to them, or kept some of their music or fashion sense to their siblings. By that definition, children that fit into that criteria ARE 90s kids. Me for example live in a place where we are late on American trends where half of the stuff we knew were through friends and tv(changing now from the internet). Going into mid-2000 we still had dial up, bubble tv's, old songs, and old shows playing as they were new. Plus some of US have lowr incomes so not everything we can replace when the new big thing comes, does that make most of the kids here 90s kids? Nah.

not only was I born in 91, I still have clothes from 2004-05 for some reason, from when I graduated from the 8th grade and was a freshman in hs. I wore adult sizes and clothes in style at the time and can say that the fashion then sucked. The super low cut skin tight jeans that flared at the bottom with a skimpy spaghetti strap shirt and pointy toed stilettos were what made up 80% of my closet (I used to get so angry when I would get told to cover up at school, not realizing I was a child looking like a hooker)

I agree, she reminds me of how laid back fashion used to be back then, mainly in terms of comfort because of how much of it consisted of t shirts and jeans.

I'm not really well versed in fashion but 90s grunge always seemed to me like you just stopped giving a shit and wore whatever. like the example you posted looks like it's trying to hard to be edgy/attractive that it misses something about grunge.

also oversized flannel =/= grunge

It's a staple piece, but I can tell you it takes more than that for an authentic outfit. Like, this http://www.90s411.com/images/grunge-fashion1.jpg genuine. Even without the flannel you still get the vibes.

No. 155189

>>155188
>it takes more than that for an authentic outfit
yeah, that's what I meant.

I think the problem is close fitting bottoms (skinny jeans, leggings, yoga pants) is just so ingrained as "good" right now that people are too afraid to do pants as baggy as like in the link you shared. which I think might help a lot to make an outfit seem more grunge.

I don't know how much of this is on the mark, but I also get the feeling like people are conflating 80s/90s/00s fashion a lot these days. LIke >>155186 seems a little more 80s with the squared off shoulders and accessorizing than 90s.

I have to add, I was looking for those tattoo chokers before they popped up everywhere. I went to all sorts of dollar stores hoping one would have old stock of them. I popped in to Clair's one day, and found them…but then the horror of "oh god, time to bring the 90s back."

Also a thrift store near me has all sorts of 90s-esc nicknacks, like a huge bag of green rave pacifier things. Old liquidated stock is amazing.

Oh my god I begged my parents to get me a blow up couch and chair for my birthday when I was little. Was so stoked to get them but they're almost impossible to sit in without sliding off. Also any exposed skin would stick to it and it was 100x worse with the Texas heat. Ahhh nostalgia

back in the late 90s-early 200's (I finished 3rd grade in the year 2000) all the girls in my class had these transparent blow up tote bags and I wanted one so bad. Finally got one and didn't get the hype. The weight of the bag was only distributed to one arm so within a month I went back to my 50 lb book bag.

I think anon means the see-through bright-coloured plastic bead curtains that were in every female artist's promotional photos in the 90's and were hung in the doorway indoors. Everything was brightly-coloured see-through plastic or blow-up in the 90's. And fiber-optic lamps that changed colour.

That's because America's scene was minuscule compared to Europe and only die hard fans attended. Now it's bigger and the general public attend and they wear normal fashion like you see on the right.

It's like complaining that 99% of the people at a rock concert are in jeans and a t-shirt instead of dressed up like a goth.

>>155212

That always happened. There's a reason why clubbing was shunned as low class and trashy and rock music ruled for the majority of the 00s. Then rock music got repetitive and pretentious and people went back to electronic music. Now electronic music is almost as trashy as it was in the 90s and rock seems to be making a slow comeback. It's all history repeating.

I thought the bottom left and dungaree pics looked too 80s so I looked up more info on the "then" photos. Going clockwise from the top left:

Literally two schoolgirls at school (in the full pic you can see that it's lockers behind them). Probably mid/late 90s but presumably not actually ravers.

British raver in 1990.

DJ Scotto in New York in 1991.

Probably British, the record he's holding is Jibaro by Electro which came out in 1988.

The last image appears to be a collage of candy ravers created to mock them. No idea of the date as it's made from 3 separate images but probably after 1995 due to the Elmo toy. The pink haired girl in the tank top is actually a guy: http://images.complex.com/complex/image/upload/t_article_image/qd9lrhdcyeavb8cjn0ql.jpg

"Then" = 50% 80s/90s British fashion, "now" = a random picture of Paris Hilton, two images from American clothes catalogues, and some random dude.

I think the reason they mostly chose pictures of British ravers/Madchesters is because if they chose American ravers from the same period it'd be mostly black guys dressed in typical 80s black guy fashion.

honestly the early/mid 2000s, the one most complained about, lol

I like how everything revolved around denim jeans. I hate dressing up and to be considered dressed nice by wearing a simple pair of jeans a spaghetti strap shirt, I'd be happy.

Sure, a lot of people pull that off now, but it's considered laid back chic (usually if they're colored jeggings, not really boot cut denim jeans) but its not the same, especially since now you have to pair everything with a full face of make up. I remember during that time (I turned 13 in 2004) all of my cousins and neighbors older friends would put on some jeans, a pretty top, some bronzer, mascara, straighten their hair, perfume, jewerly and be done in like 20 mins.

If you watch a youtube vid, applying foundation is 20 mins alone, let alone getting ready in that amount of time.

I miss the flared and loose-fit jeans because nowadays it's all about skinnyfit and I have short legs with thick upper thighs so they don't flatter me at all. Skinnyfit jeans and jeggings only look good when you have long, thin legs and a tumblresque thigh gap and not many people have those.
