14 Things We Thought About Fashion in the '90s

Twitter hashtags can often shed light on some of the more fringe elements of what's in the zeitgeist. For example, did you know today is National Iced Tea Day? Additionally, many people have strong thoughts on what exactly constitutes Dark Ages Problems[1].

One item that's currently trending is a topic that we've certainly been puzzling over a lot lately: #Inthe90sIThought. Considering the '90s revival[2] that's been sweeping the fashion and entertainment worlds, it seems appropriate to revisit our own feelings on fashion from the decade that gave us "Clueless," choker necklaces, and flannel.
