This week the girls take aim at 90s fashion... 


The 90s is by far the girl's favorite decade tonight they took a look at some iconic 90s fashion trends which they loved, like so hard.

Amy kicked off this week's topic by chatting about some iconic 90s fashion trends. She then discussed one of the most famous fashion trends of the 90s being the grunge look. 

As promised, here are some pictures of a fashion icon of the 90s  - Friday Night Wine Fight's very own Sarah

Bianca discussed how in the early nineties, Indian-American club-goers introduced disco-bhangra (Punjabi folk music) and Indian fashion (bindis, brocade, nose rings) to the clubbing scene in the UK and North America. Despite earlier lukewarm attempts by the 60s counterculture movements and the hippie-trails across India and Nepal to inject textiles and bindi into the mainstream, this was Indian fashion's first big international moment. 

It was a matter of time before Gwen Stefani—who was dating her No Doubt bandmate Tony Kanal, who was London-born, of Indian origin, and flirting with Hinduism at the time—adapted the bindi as her "look." Both Kanal and Stefani appeared in massively hit music videos for "Just A Girl" and "Frozen" in bindis, subsequently taking it to the stage, red carpets, and award shows.

Crushed velvet was the shit! Fricken loved it!

Bianca and her sister had matching dresses as was the style at the time. Hers was dark blue and Dani's was baby pink.

Bianca's favorite though was her floor-length velvet skirt.

Sarah ends with some of her favorite fashions of the 90s. These looks include the iconic look of the checked skirt and matching blazer as well as a style that Sarah hasn't given up on since to 90s, oversized clothing. Although, she has limited herself to only wearing oversized jumpers and t-shirts.
