2015 kicked off in one of the best ways possible for ’90s sitcom fans everywhere — Netflix released 10 seasons (a whopping 83 hours and 236 episodes) of “Friends.” (CONFESSION: I’m already through ALL TEN SEASONS.) As we re-watched all of our favorite moments, we can’t help but notice how the nineties are still influencing our fashion decisions today — think about it…overalls are BACK, denim shirts are all the rage, vintage sweatshirts and statement jewelry are taking over the shelves at stores near you.
Let’s take a look at some of the iconic fashion moments that “Friends” offered and how you can bring the ’90s back in to your wardrobe without looking like you just stepped out of a time machine.
The Denim Obsession
“Denim on Denim,” “Canadian Tuxedo,” call it what you will but this look is making a blast from the past in full force. Consider the chambray a staple item in all forms and for every season.
