Vintage trends from the 20th century have been doing the rounds on the runways and sidewalks alike. It seems like the cyclical world of fashion is turning back to the era of chokers and mini skirts! Here are 45 vintage trends that are making an appearance in today’s world!

Mom Jeans

One of the biggest trends of the '90s - the mom jeans - has been making a massive comeback in this resurgence of retro trends. Once looked down on as something only oldies wear, they're now popular with everyone from moms to daughters.

These jeans are high-waisted with a loose-fitting leg tapering at the ankle. Pair it with a tucked-in sweater, a belt, and delicate footwear, and you're ready to go!

Circle Skirts

Think back to those ladies in the '50s, looking like the epitome of an elegant woman with their fitted blouses, circle skirts, and tiny kitten heels.

This retro trend has made a comeback with vigor as it enhances the waists and adds a flare to the outfit. These days, people are pairing it with fun accessories like belts or berets to give it a modern, quirky edge and bring it to the 21st century.

Crop Tops

Crop tops are a trend that never really goes away - like clockwork, they come back every couple of decades with some new spin on the old classic. This fashion trend peaked during the '90s and has made a comeback in the 2010s.

Crop tops are popular with both men and women, especially during those hot summer months. Pair them with high-waisted jeans or skirts, or wear them as a part two of a two-piece set. We can guarantee you'll look as cute as a button.

Corduroy

Corduroy was a '70s staple for everyday wear but slowly faded into the background in the following years. However, the unique textured and durable fabric is now making waves in the 21st century.

Everything, from tops and jeans to skirts and bags, can be made from this material. Corduroy's comfort and durability make it a must-have wardrobe staple. It works for casual as well as workplace attire, and it's the perfect aesthetic for your autumn-themed photoshoot.
