Feeling nostalgic for the bubblegum pop days of the late 1980s and 90s? How about grunge, early hip hop and the supermodels? The fashion world sure is. With the past few seasons in fashion has come a slew of 90s inspired styles ranging from sophisticated tailoring and business woman ideals, to a Tumblr inspired teenage wasteland of cartoonish makeup, models and prints. Designers envisioned both hip moody girls with straggly technicolor hair, and strong working mothers with jobs to do, children to raise, and chic business events and parties to attend immediately after. Taking style cues from 90s icons like clueless's Cher, Bart Simpson, Gwen Stefani and Kurt Cobain, cool, colorful and kitschy are three words that come to mind.
The Tumblr generation is definitely a part of the earlier, pop and grunge inspired fashion set- looking to heroes like the always eccentric Jeremy Scott. For Fall 2012, Jeremy Scott's gang was complete with jeweled bindis and angular Gwen looking blonde wigs- with bright streaks of color of course. Where Scott's last collection(spring 2012) was on the fluffier sexier spice girls side of the 90's- the fall collection was all about internet graphics, attitude and surprisingly, Lisa Frank. There were literally screenshots and emoticons printed on dresses and leggings, complimented by a 90s interpretation of 70s glam. A graphic unicorn cutout, corset that looks like it was covered in stickers, and sparkly groovy prints on shiny fabrics! A more sophisticated iridescence has been in order lately from Christopher Kane, who pairs rainbow hombres with smooth black paneling and silhouettes. Prabul Gurung has also been ahead of he 90s curve with pieces swathed in shimmering purple iradesence. This redeaux of sparkly girly 90s things is a fun statement look this season, and appeals to the teenaged and twenty somethings spamming the internet with memorabilia and trendy separates.
