Age is just a number, especially when it comes to fashion. You should try out the trends [1] you feel comfortable in that flatter your body, whether they reflect the '70s, '90s, y2k, or offer a fresh, new take on a look that's evolved through the years. But after the great debate about millennial skinny jeans vs. Gen-Z mum jeans [2] surfaced, we looked beyond denim. As it turns out, there are a lot of pieces millennials are known for wearing that Gen-Z would probably skip over. See: long cardigans, heeled booties, tucked-in, fitted shirts, and ballet flats, just to name a few.
The TikTokers [3] here break it down hilariously, so you can determine which outfit combinations speak to you and the group that you fall into — if not technically, then just when it comes to aesthetics. When push comes to shove, are you a millennial or Gen-Z dresser? Just click through to find out. As for myself? I'm a millennial, but my affinity for baggy cargo trousers, sneakers [4], and crop tops suggests I actually don't dress like one at all. (I also happen to part my hair down the middle [5], so maybe I was just born in the wrong decade [6]!)
