The Best 90's Fashion Trends for Women Now: 36 Timeless Outfit Ideas

By Gemma Prior


The best 90’s fashion trends for women have returned this season offering those pieces that, despite the years that have passed, will never become outdated. 

Of course, you may be thinking that you’re not one for the vivid colours and denim overalls that you know were popular in 90’s fashion. But they’re not the trends I’m sharing in this post.

I’m referring to capsule wardrobe staples like turtleneck knits, bomber jackets, baggy jeans, pencil skirts, slip dresses, leather jackets and many more.

These pieces represent wardrobe staples for so many of us and offer endless possibilities when it comes to creating smart casual outfits for women, plus some more formal looks.

And then there are the styling trends of 90's fashion - the way pieces were incorporated in outfits - including coats styled with dresses, jumpers and shirts tied at the hip, outfits in all black, shirts with slip dresses, and baggy jeans.

I’m sharing the pieces and looks that won’t date.

When we revisit fashion eras, it’s not to copy the looks from those times, but to recreate them with a modern touch, to meld them for our own style, using pieces that won’t become outdated as soon as the trend ends. 

Of course, there are the brands that sell pieces that aren’t a modern take on a past style, but an exact recreation of a bygone era. 

It’s these pieces that often end up wasted and in landfill when, by the time the next season arrives, we realise they’re no longer suitable or what we enjoy.

When you look at a piece, consider whether you can see yourself wearing it in five or ten years time. Will it meld with the other pieces in your wardrobe and provide multiple outfit opportunities? Does it suit your lifestyle?

I’ve put together a collection of 36 outfits using the best 90’s fashion trends for women, sharing looks for every season and occasion, including smart casual outfits as well as ideas for evening looks. These are the outfits that will work for years to come.

Enjoy and make sure you save the ones you love!

    A Side Note:

    If you’re a regular visitor to my blog or follow me on Instagram, you may know that my focus is on making our wardrobes more sustainable, more ethical. I share ideas and brands to support both.

    But you may also notice that some of the pieces I share in my blog, don’t rank well when it comes to their sustainability. I do this because I recognise that for some people it’s very hard to buy more expensive pieces of clothing that have a better ranking.

    So when I share fashion that's not where it should be in terms of quality, sustainability, and ethics, I only share pieces that are minimalist in style and not based on short-term trends. Therefore, these pieces will continue to serve well in your wardrobe.

    This isn’t as good as buying sustainable fashion, but it’s certainly better than heading for on-trend items that quickly stop appealing to you, and potentially end up as waste.
