In the 90s, true fashionistas not only layered T-shirts, but also wore a dress (with straps, of course) over their t-shirts and jeans. And you might not believe it, but this 90s style is back now and powerfully !

It doesn't matter if man or woman, everyone wore a white t-shirt in the 90s (even under their clothes!) And just like the shirts, they were unisex and oversized!
Loading ...14. Fluo and neon colors, bold and cheerful
Forget the delicate pastel colors, the shades of soft colors, the ombré effects. In the 90s there was no trace of it. Everything was fluorescent! The neon colors were great, and anyone who wore them could be seen coming for miles.
15. Favorite fabric: velvet!
Another "fashion trend of the 90s", which celebrates its great rebirth: velvet! Just like back then, it's still making a splash on turtlenecks, tops, and even boots.Even the influencers couldn't resist the soft charm of velvet and wear it over jeans!
16. The colorful glasses
The top accessory of the nineties: sunglasses colored in red, blue or pink. Better if with very narrow and small lenses. In this case you have to exaggerate with the make-up on the eyes to make sure that you can also see through the glasses !
17. The contrasting make-up
When it came to eye make-up, in those years there were wild experimentations and contrasts with lipstick. Color blocks, light blue, acid green, pale pink lipstick, cool blush and the iconic burgundy lipstick!
18. Hair Style: wet, gel, twisted
Wet and gel effect, very short and twisted hair rolled up on the head in a messy way.
From Bjork to Gwen Stefani, head-rolled mini knots were all the rage and are still today.
An "alternative to the usual boring ponytail!
19. When frizz was in fashion
If today we are fighting an endless battle against frizz, in the grunge era, frizzy hair was very trendy. Beware, it is forbidden to leave frizz on the roots and try to balance the messy hair with a casual chic look!
20. The tribal tattoo
Tattoos are a symbol of 90s fashion.
In fact, anyone who couldn't make a real one for a variety of reasons wore a fake one or used tattoo-effect chokers.
But the tattoo must of those years was the sexy tribal, preferably on the sacrum, which emerged from the low-waisted pants and crop tops!
