Parker Mavis ’17

Throughout the world, the 90s have become an inspiration for many trends on and off the runway. It’s not a surprise that Brandy Melville utilizes the grunge look that was popular within the time period: flannels, light-wash distressed boyfriend jeans, and the overall minimalistic look that embodied the 1990s. Movies such as Clueless, 10 Things I Hate About You, and even Hocus Pocus show examples of outfits that would be considered “effortlessly chic” today.
