Designers took an inspiration from the early 90s and brought back the grunge fashion.
At that moment it was about a laid back lifestyle and not caring about your look, the grunge style being, in fact, an anti-fashion movement.
Now the grunge trend means layering more fitted pieces and gaining a more elegant look. Although Marc Jacobs was the one that brought grunge style to runway, I think I favor the more chic touch: layers like belts and scarves, black leggings or tights and high heels.
Let’s forget about oversized beanies, ankle leg warmers, knee ribbed socks or army boots. They’re just horrid!
