Anna Wintour's '90s Style Is TOTALLY Unrecognizable

by Kat Collings

If you think of Anna Wintour’s style today, words such as sheath dress, floral print, and cardigan come to mind. In a word, her look is conservative, which is why we were shocked to see ‘90s-era photos of the now editor-in-chief with a markedly different personal style. While everyone’s look should evolve as they get older, we were quite delighted with a peek at Wintour’s former, more adventurous style spirit.

Scroll down to see photos of a younger Wintour rocking graphic tees, rainbow sequins, and a space-age gold turtleneck.
