There’s just something about the 90s that we can’t shake. Maybe it’s our obsession with Carolyn Bessette Kennedy after bingeing Ryan Murphy’s Love Story that’s fuelling our desire to embrace minimalism.

Or maybe it’s the fact that the trend cycle works overtime to ensure that, somehow, our fashion taste swings back around every 30 years without fail.

Either way, we have to give it to the 90s: the penchant for sleek monochrome looks is a timeless one.

So much so that the style defined by the likes of Jennifer Anniston, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Sarah Michelle Gellar has never really left us – it seems like every year we declare the fateful decade is back in fashion.

But if you, like the rest of our Instagram feed, are feeling the urge to jump on the nostalgia train, here are the best 90s-inspired dresses, jeans, shoes, and shirts to shop now.

M&S Lace Detail Knee Length Slip Skirt

Easy for throwing on and layering, you can’t go wrong with a simple slip skirt. This one has a dainty lace trim that just grazes the knee.

M&S Cotton Rich Ribbed Slash Neck T-Shirt

We don’t make the rules: boat neck t-shirts are just flattering on everyone – and they’re an excellent upgrade on an everyday essential, too.

Steve Madden Kitten Heel Square Toe Sandals

Nothing screams 90s like tortoiseshell and thong sandals, so of course in 2026 they had to collab to create the ultimate summer shoe.

Cou Cou Intimates The Raglan Tee

We can totally see Rachel Green wearing this 90s staple reimagined with a pair of 501s, and we’re not mad about it.

H&M Double Breasted Blazer

Winona Ryder is our forever style inspo, so we’re glad H&M is catching on with this baggy jacket and trouser combo that’s reminiscent of her look at the Little Man Tate premiere.

Levi's '90s 501 Jeans

These have been the perfect jeans for over 30 years, and they always will be – especially when reimagined with a '90s-specific twist. Think: mid-rise, just enough bag in the legs, and falling right at the ankle. Mwah!

H&M Lace-Trimmed Strappy Dress

If you don’t already have a slip dress, this trend is the perfect opportunity to correct that. Again, they're ideal for layering (in the office, at the beach, for a girls’ night out – hello, the options are limitless) and add an ultra-feminine zing to any outfit.

M&S Pure Cotton Girlfriend Shirt

You can’t get more minimalist than a crisp white shirt. CBK wore hers with a black skirt, jeans – basically anything. It’s even easier when it’s as soft and crisp as this M&S option.

& Other Stories Slim Oval-Frame Sunglasses

We’ll be abusing the option to go incognito mode with these oval sunnies when the sun (eventually) makes an appearance. If you want an even tinier pair, this pair from Jimmy Fairly is about as petite as they get.

M&S Kitten Heel Pointed Court Shoes

In case you missed the memo, brown was as much of a neutral in the 90s as black. So of course we’re pro pairing this kitten heel court shoe with any outfit – casual or formal.

Office dressing is always tricky, but trust us: you’ll never run out of ways to style this satin skirt.

Havaianas High Platform Flip Flops

We’re sure we don’t need to remind you, but summer is just around the corner. Meaning, catch us in these platform flip flops to avoid sweaty feet for the foreseeable.

Massimo Dutti Split Suede Leather Eyelet Bag

The key to the perfect 90s bag is one that matches structure with slouch. Like this one, which can be worn over the shoulder, or clutched under the arm for a grungy moment.
