Of course you already know that when it comes to fashion, history repeats itself. But designers don't play favourites with one decade forever, and every new year brings a fresh batch of styles [1] that pay homage to old looks. It's common for certain pieces to stick around for awhile. For example, our jewellery boxes [2] have been home to '80s statement earrings for at least two seasons now, and we're still living out the whole early 2000s pop star thing [3]. (Have you nailed Gwen Stefani's cargo aesthetic [4] yet?) Then there are items like the '70s print maxi dress and disco era metallic tie-front shirt that we're seeing pop up everywhere, and we're psyched!
We are fully embracing these renewed trends with everything we have, and simultaneously taking styling advice from some of our favourite stars and influencers. We didn't just round up the popular items you should be aware of, we also offered inspired shopping picks so you can easily work them into your wardrobe. We promise that once we re-introduce you to these familiar looks, you'll start noticing them when you're scrolling through your Instagram feed or browsing the pages of your go-to retail sites. Scroll down to brush up on the now and then that's back again.
