Introduction

-03

Fashion trends of the 1990s emerged from a variety of origins, contributing to the transient nature of garment styles across the decade. The ambivalence of the nineties catalysed the development of a progressively minimalist and conceptual approach to fashion and art, with globalisation and the emergence of the European Single Market diversified the industry, facilitating infiltration from ‘foreign’ brands, leading to growth in domestic fashion industries and the emergence of new construction techniques and trends. In this essay, it becomes evident that fashion trends, particularly amongst the younger demographic, are significantly influenced by drivers including, world events and politics, the economy, technological developments, media, influential figures and art and design.

conscious consumerism in the Westernworld, resulting in the popularisation of lower-cost fashion brands, such as ZARA, New Look, GAP, etc. Offering affordable, yet high-quality clothing, these labels saw increased sales during this period, with GAP Inc.’s 1999 annual report recording sales rise ‘more than sixfold’ from 1990 to 1999 (Gross. Slate. 2006). A particular product accredited to this trend was the GAP hoodie, a simple cotton sweatshirt with the logo emblazoned across the chest available to men, women and children. (The Telegraph. 2016). Deemed a ‘mega brand’ of the decade, The GAP “shaped retailing and consumer culture in the 1990s”(Gross. Slate. 2006), through facilitating the trend of functional, lower-cost clothing, thus initiating the commoditization of fashion.

publicity received from the dress, one may suggest that the exposure influenced the label’s sales.

In 1995, both Amazon and eBay were launched on the World Wide Web, facilitating e-commerce and revolutionizing the fashion industry. Such platforms facilitated the globalisation of the industry, allowing brands and independent sellers to advertise their products across the world, reaching a wider audience than previously. With regards to technology’s effect on manufacturing in the late 1990s, computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing facilitated the mass-production of goods. Despite the computer systems and software being available in earlier years, progressions, such as the move from Unix to PC, opened up the availability of the programs to designers and engineers (Bethany, 2018). Through shortening the concept development, design and manufacturing period, CAD and CAM transformed the industry by facilitating ‘fast-fashion’ and enabling brands to meet demand for certain products through quicker output of stock.


Media, Music, Cinema and Television: In the early nineties, the infamous ‘grunge’ trend was established, having ‘trickled-up’ from subculture and then adopted and consolidated by musicians, such as Kurt Cobain and Nirvana (Steele, 2006, p145), giving the trend exposure and disseminating

It may be inferred that the characteristic ‘unfashion’ (Truman, 1992) of grunge aided in the growth of the trend, as it served as a symbol of society’s

dissatisfaction with the state of political, cultural ‘respectable’ appearance. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Anna Wintour (2003) appears to supports this notion, stating that designers were ‘reflecting’ on the ‘down time in our economy and the world’. Undeterred by evident dislike of the ‘fashion’ by critics and retailers (Newell-Hanson, 2015), designers such as Anna Sui and Marc Jacobs drew upon this subculture as inspiration for their collections (Steele, 2006, p145), leading to the infamous Perry Ellis for Marc Jacobs S/S Collection of 1993, in which contrasting materials were combined to create an inauthentic look that ultimately led to the loss of his job. Despite its following, the aesthetic was short-lived, primarily due to the death of Kurt Cobain (a key propagator of grunge) in 1994, and the improving economic prowess of Europe (Reed, 2013. p44).

Despite minimal changes typically being observed in men’s fashion, the onset of the baggytrouser trend was a drastic change in silhouette from the straight-leg tailor of the eighties. Paired with a slim-fitting shirt, Timberland boots, and plaid print, a look synonymous with the ‘street’ and hip-hop scene was established. Certain brands became popular during the rise of street-style, with artists influencing demand for certain labels, stimulating trends.

Conclusion In conclusion, consumers during the nineties favoured comparative simplicity over the bold excessiveness of eighties fashions. It may be observed that male fashion predominantly developed from subcultures, namely grunge, rave and street-style. On the other hand, women’s fashions were largely brought about through the ‘trickle down effect’, progressively developing into a minimalist, feminine style, embracing individuality. With the United Kingdom’s demographic demonstrating a medium age of 35.8 in 1990, and 37.6 in 2000 (Statista,2018), it can be inferred that the demographic is neither ‘young’, nor ‘old’. Thus, when considering Behling’s (1985) relationship theory between demographics and fashion, it may be suggested that this middle aged demographic is responsible for the combination of trickle-down and trickle-up effects of trends in throughout the decade. With consideration of the drivers of fashion explored above, it is possible to suggest media, music, cinema and television played the most prominent role in influencing fashion trends during the nineties, particularly when one considers the crossover between the other drivers, such as influential people, and the media.
