9 Outfit Trends That Are Just as Stylish Today as They Were in the '90s

      In today's world, we often look back to past decades for outfit ideas, but none have captured our attention quite like the '90s. From my own experience, I find that nearly every outfit I admire is influenced by that era. '90s fashion typically exudes a minimalistic and effortless vibe without being dull, making it hard not to feel like a stylish trendsetter in such attire. If you find yourself occasionally in search of fresh outfit ideas, like me, I've curated nine notable ensembles that would be stylish and relevant in both 1995 and 2025. They are perfect for summer and likely feature items you already have in your wardrobe. These outfits include slip skirts, cardigans, capris, boat-neck tanks, and even leopard-print pants. Curious? You clearly have good taste. Keep scrolling to discover nine '90s outfit trends that are back in fashion, and shop for essential pieces.

      **Fitted Blazer + Knee-Length Slip Skirt + Slingback Heels**

      The last time knee-length skirts gained this level of popularity was during the 1990s. To fully embrace the era, style yours with a fitted blazer and slingback heels, just like Anne Laure-Mais recently showcased.

      **Capri Pants + Matching Top + Wedge Sandals**

      The trend of capri pants remains popular, and for a straightforward '90s-inspired outfit, choose a set with a coordinating top and add a pair of wedge sandals. (Kitten heels or flip-flops can also help you capture the decade’s style.)

      **Sleeveless Turtleneck + Ankle-Length Trousers + Square-Toe Sandals**

      This simple outfit reminiscent of Gwyneth Paltrow in 1997 is perfect for various occasions, from work to travel.

      **Boatneck Tank + Leather Belt + Baggy-Straight Jeans + Almond-Toe Ballet Flats**

      Boatneck tanks have been a popular summer staple in recent years, and they bring a distinct '90s touch when paired with anything.

      **T-Shirt Mini Dress + Knee Boots**

      One of the easiest '90s outfit trends right now is a basic T-shirt dress paired with knee boots. It's always stylish and uncomplicated.

      **Crewneck Cardigan + Denim Miniskirt + Animal-Print Bag + High-Heel Mule Sandals**

      For those seeking new styling ideas for a cardigan, this combination works well. Simply add a denim miniskirt and some '90s-inspired accessories to complete the look.

      **Polo-Neck Sweater + Vintage Jeans + Pointed-Toe Boots**

      Polo necks can lend a preppy '90s aesthetic to your outfits, but when coupled with vintage-inspired jeans and sleek boots (or pumps), they add a cool, modern twist while maintaining subtle '90s elements.

      **Button-Down Top + Leopard Trousers + Loafers**

      Leopard print is undeniably synonymous with the '90s, and styling leopard trousers is simpler than you might think. Team them with a basic top and loafers for an elevated effect.

      **Cardigan + White Midi Dress + Slingback Ballet Flats**

      For a straightforward and lovely summer ensemble, take inspiration from Aimee Song by layering a classic cardigan over a white midi dress and completing the look with slingback flats.
