The Early 1990s.
 
Nobody had ANY style in the early-mid 1990s..

its like..

dudes had way to many holes in their jeans..
chicks were wearing shoulder pads? fucking shoulder pads for Christ's sake!

and even the brothers looked bad in all those fucking cross colors, it was like an acid trip..


crazy patterns, fucked up colors, bad hair, awkward fitting clothes, ugly shoes.. jesus man, what a time to be alive eh?

my god what was everybody thinking from 1990-1994?

ha ha ha, nice big butts, but i think your decade sensor is dislocated.

weren't jordache jeans an 80s thing? i wasn't in gringoland at the time, but that's what i hear.

I dunno, I was pretty gangsta.

gangsta never goes out of style imo.

greedrex 03.03.2009 05:39 PM

ploesj 03.03.2009 05:53 PM

i was still wearing the awful sweaters my mother got me at that time, and i honestly don't remember what other people looked like.

i don't like most fashion anyway.

the 2007 revisiting of the 80s style on chicks is actually been a good thing, wen kept simple and in a 2000s context.. its when people go extreme that is disturbing.

rob, I know that the 90s had a lot of leftovers from the 80s, but they were most definitely rocking shoulder pads and jordache jeans like the above posted picture in the early 1990s, in fact, I believe they were most popular at this time, catch any episode of Saved By The Bell to see examples..

acousticrock87 03.03.2009 08:04 PM

I can't wait for the next fashion. Jodhpurs and tucked-in muscle shirts for the women.

Sonic Youth 37 03.03.2009 08:17 PM

Style? Give me Chucks, straight-legged, well-fitting jeans and a nice t-shirt or long sleeve collared shirt (no pocket) any day.

GeneticKiss 03.04.2009 12:26 AM

Jeans + tshirt = timeless

We need only look at the cast of the worst ever record shop-based film ever to see this:

My sisters had a thing for super tight leggings, slouch socks and boots, taffeta in numerous colours.. and the average supertight jeans and t shirts and wayfarers.

early 90's fashion isn't all bad. Sexy girls in grungy dresses and short a-lines, sheer black stockings and boots.. absolutely kill me.

sorry buddy, you're wrong.

plus, portishead isn't cool at all. Innovative, sure, i'll give 'em that, but "cool," no.

They never clicked with me, personally. Too whiny.

Johnny "Magic Fingers" 03.04.2009 08:24 AM

Early 1990s fashion, eh?

Rob Instigator 03.04.2009 01:28 PM

dude, even you have to admitt that shit above is the worst...

I'll take the worst yuppy/hippy/dippy fashion..
I'll take the worst a disco has to offer..
I'll take every bit of the 1980s...



but that horrifying acid trip called early 1990s fashion I will pass...

oh, yeah and of course to you doubters of the shoulder pads in the 90s
"Leftover Shoulder Pads

Remnants of the eighties were still around for the first years of the 90s and particularly in provincial areas. Short above knee straight skirts and stirrup ski pants masquerading as a refined version of leggings were worn with long chenille yarn sweater tunics, oversized shoulder padded shirts or big embellished T-shirts. The latter gradually reduced in size to become slimmer fitted and semi fitted garter stitch knits with fake fur collars, darted three-quarter shirts and screen printed t-tops minus the pads often worn with tie waist, easy loose trousers, jeans or boot leg trousers."

Derek 03.04.2009 01:35 PM

and in 10 years time everyone will laugh at this horrible style:
