How do you feel about the return of early-mid 2000s fashion?

1. I still have clothes from the 90s-early 00s so I feel like I won’t have to spend money. So that’s nice.

2. Bad. Terrible. Not one good thing about them.

   One of the “it girls” at work showed up last week wearing the exact outfit I remember wearing to a party in 2002: bandana top with a big hibiscus flower on it, wide leg low-rise jeans, and platform sandals. Nothing about this looks good, at all.

3. Indifferent. I am old enough to have watched multiple decades of fashion roll around again and honestly can’t be bothered to care about it. I hope the folks wearing it are enjoying themselves.

4. I didn’t think it was flattering then (I was a teenager at that time) and I don’t find it flattering now (30yo) 😅 I’ll stick to my staples for a couple years until the fad changes again

5. I love Y2K-*inspired* fashion combined with modern makeup and hair. 2020’s take on 2000’s fashion looks amazing, can’t say the same for people straight up dressing like some teen idol red carpet disaster from 2001.

6. Hate!

7. Fads come and go. I don’t really care what other people wear, there’s so many styles, people can wear what they like. I’m 33, and personally can’t be bothered to care what’s trendy and what isn’t, I’m not throwing away clothes that aren’t fashionable anymore and buying new, I wear what feels comfortable to me.

8. The absolute worst era in fashion.

9. There will always be people who hate some sorts of things that come into fashion again.
   I really like low-rise bottoms, so feminine!

10. My best friend’s kid and I are planning on dressing up as each other for Halloween, we’ve already got near matching outfits. plus, we’ve basically doubled our closets and black boot collection by sharing.

11. Is this trucker hats and skirts layered over jeans? I hated that shit.

12. Honestly I’m completely detached from fashion these days so, while it wouldn’t be my style choice, it doesn’t really impact on me.

13. I’m looking forward to late 2000s indie sleaze full return. Mustard, cobalt and edgy everything

15. I love it because in the 2000s it was so much harder to find clothes in my size so I initially missed out on a lot of the fun styles and now with brands getting more inclusive I can try them. (The downside now is that many are going back to extended sizes online only and that blows, I want to shop in store.)

16. I love the fashion but not the pressure to be thin that comes with it, we spent our childhoods believing that anything above supermodel skinny was “too fat”, we’ve worked so hard for acceptance of other body types and now I see it going all the way back. We don’t need to traumatise a new generation and make them feel less-than because they don’t have the “perfect” body because of some arbitrary trend.

17. i just thinks it’s funny. in the sense my mom would buy my ed hardy clothes for 100+ and these kids only have to pay 20 dollars for the shirt now 😂

18. I’m horrified

19. I am okay with it, but the issue is that Gen Z wants to roast us millennials but then they try to emulate us.

20. As long as whale tails don’t come back, I’m indifferent. I still have a couple wide-legged jeans. Of course, there’s no Lycra in them so they’re much less forgiving.

21. I don’t really care, I will continue to wear what I like. That being said as a bootylicious individual I will never ever wear low-rise jeans

22. I remember green and pink colours but it lacked memorable shades and patterns.
