90s style icons

Drew Barrymore

Was an Icon in the 1990s with her flower sweet wild look, the actress became one of the main style stars. She did nearly every look from grunge dark makeup, to daisy chain, but that was her look with her short hair and tattoos.

 

The Spice Girls

In the mid 90s Britain's was invaded by five ladies in over the top outfits with each their own identity. The Spice Girls celebrated girl power and individuality, so Scary, Baby, Ginger, Sporty, and Posh each had their unique looks that young women all over the world admired. We take the  platform shoes, pigtail buns, and lots of body glitter, from the Spice Girls. 
 
 


90's


 The 1990's was a time of pop culture and music. The Fresh Prince of Bel Air was a trendsetter with Will smith wearing  colorful tracksuit and Jordan's. The Hip-hop group TLC often performed in over sized t-shirts and mens shorts, with big colorful accessories.











In the early '90s, Kate Moss came into Fashion and changed the fashion world forever.
This was the time when the teenaged model was part of the  androgyny and incredibly slim figures. One of Moss' first campaigns was for Calvin Klein. 

1880's


 FYI: I would dress up like Madonna for talent shows and (lip) sing to the song, 'A Material Girl.'  When I was a child growing up in the 80's. There was always a Madonna cassette in the car, I owned a tutu, and curled my hair in rollers- to tease the next day.Grace Jones

Cyndi LauperShoulder pads, mini skirts, leg warmers, huge earnings, fingerless gloves and over sized tops were the trends of the 1980's. Style Icons such as Madonna and Grace Jones. The 1980's look a time of exercise with the tights and legwarmers with leotards.

This was a time to make a statement with big bright clothes and accessories.
