Yep, the nineties are back, hitting women’s fashion with a vengeance. If you’ve got visions of Global Hypercolour t-shirts and oversized men’s blazers, don’t worry; the key designers have translated this look into chic, wearable pieces to suit all shapes and sizes.

Let’s start with the cycling short. Agreed, you have to have a fine pair of pins to carry off this look but they’re ideal for covering problem areas. Think of cycling shorts as an undergarment and under no circumstances wear alone. Layer with a baggier short or sheer skirt – once you’ve tried this look you won’t go back. On this occasion though ladies, fake tan is a must.

Next up we have the in-your-face glow of Neon. Yes, fluorescent is with us once more, though thankfully not in the guise of fingerless gloves or nasty acrylic leg-warmers. An alternative to the frankly boring pastel, accessorise a dull outfit with chunky neon bangles or an eye-wateringly bright clutch. It’s a look that’s steadily filtering from the catwalk to the high-street.

Remember the ‘Body’? That hideous contraption with the ill-placed press-studs just waiting to pop at the most inappropriate time? Well thanks to Versace it’s back. Demonstrated on the catwalk layered with dresses or under trousers just remember the benefits – you don’t have to tuck it in and they don’t ride halfway up your back. Make it work for you this season – it’s all about the layers.

Unleash your inner market-trader with the bum-bag. Yes indeed – the fanny pack is back, just in time to accommodate the downscaling – we have absolutely nothing to put in it! Undeniably handy though, the catwalks have shown us it’s for life, not just for tourists.

So, embrace the 90’s in your own style – these looks will be around for a while yet.
