From Jennifer Aniston to Gwyneth Paltrow and Naomi Campbell to Kate Moss, the It girls of the nineties had a very particular style. Featuring round-frame sunglasses, faded blue denim, shrunken knit cardigans and of course, excessively thin eyebrows the era can often be remembered for a less is more aesthetic. Ironically, many of the decade’s more minimalist trends still take up prominence in our wardrobes today and (thin eyebrows aside). I can confidently say I’d sport any of the aforementioned looks.
One other very ’90s trend that has stood the test of time and maintained its popularity in our closets decades later is thin strap slip dresses. And this summer, in particular, I foresee myself living in the timeless style. Often featuring a flattering, décolletage-baring square neckline and simple bias-cut silhouette, the style is not only easy to wear, but its also versatile enough to transition across many occasions. You can pull off this look whether you’re working from home or want to elevate your weekend picnic look.
