37 ’90s Fashion Trends That Feel Just as Relevant in 2025

The resurgence of ’90s fashion has resulted in a truly mixed bag of emotions. While the decade can be credited with providing us with now-favoured party dresses and kitten heels, there’s also a raft of trends we’d like to keep in the past. Of course, some classic ’90s trends have arguably reached timeless status, meaning that despite them originating in the last decade of the 20th Century, they’ve become even more relevant 30 years on. After reaching out to the rest of the Who What Wear team, we reminisced about all the pieces we used to be so proud to own but can’t imagine ever wearing again (see: dungarees) and the celebrity looks we’ll happily revisit.

Just when you think all of the forgotten looks from the 1990s will remain in the past, along comes another one. How badly do you want a ridiculously tiny bag right now? Or what about those ’90s Kate Moss images you come back to time and again for inspiration for what to wear on a night out? We’ve recently rediscovered a love for old-school Sarah Jessica Parker looks—which, yes, are very different from Carrie Bradshaw’s—and combat trousers, too. The revivals are coming in thick and fast, people. Thick and fast.
