Winona Ryder's Best '90s Outfits

10 Winona Ryder Looks From the '80s and '90s That Are Back in Style

Oct 23 2019

Everything old becomes new again, whether it's hair clips, high-waisted jeans, brocade fabric, or other trends we thought we'd never see again. Fashions from the '80s and '90s are coming back around again, and who better to get inspiration from than Winona Ryder? Ryder was one of the style icons of red carpets throughout the decades (and she still is today!), and with so many retro trends getting a style revival these days, Ryder's style can provide plenty of inspiration for today's revamped, throwback looks. From casual looks for everyday to unexpectedly glam styles, here are 10 ways that Ryder's looks from the '80s and '90s can inspire your own style today.

1. Sheer Sleeves

Ryder rocked sheer, wrist-length sleeves back in 1990, and the sheer trend is coming back around again with short and long sheer sleeves contrasting with solid tops and dresses.

2. Interesting Necklines

Ryder's dress from 1996 combined a scooping neckline with a strapless silhouette for something totally unique. These days, unusual necklines are making a comeback, getting us out of the rut of the same three or four styles.

3. Fringe

Perhaps it should come as no surprise that fringe is back in the fashion spotlight — after all, we're about to head into our own version of the '20s!

4. Brocade

The patterned, embossed fabric has gone in and out of fashion constantly over the decades, but for now, it's back on the "in" side of things, with the woven, subtle patterns growing in popularity again. Even Meghan Markle loves a good brocade!

5. Oversize Shirts

As we move away from the hyperfitted fashions, oversize and slouchy shirts are turning heads again, especially oversize tops paired with more close-cut pants.

6. Turtlenecks

A snug, fitted turtleneck (especially in a neutral colour) is back to being a Fall fashion staple after years of being out of fashion.

7. Hair Clips

We never really got over hair clips — they're just so much fun! — and it's a blast to see the trend coming back, with today's trendsetters adding colourful, textured, and even sparkly statement clips to their hairstyles.

8. High-Waisted Jeans

We've got a better grasp on how to make high-waisted jeans work these days, but the comfy cut is gaining popularity once again after the reign of super-low-rise jeans during the mid-'00s.

9. Chokers

Raise your hand if you were a '90s girl who had a collection of chokers! The tiny necklace trend is, surprisingly, reappearing on red carpets today. Although we've moved past the classic stretchy-plastic chokers, more exciting and updated versions are appearing more and more today.

10. Blazers

There's so much more to the blazer than a basic business piece. Different blazer cuts, including oversize blazers and ones made out of interesting materials, are very in for this Fall!
