Nineties fashion hits different in the fall—it's a master class in textured suede fabrics, funky animal prints, light-wash denim, and all-black turtlenecks. Think Julia Roberts at LAX in her oversize blazer and light-wash jeans or Courteney Cox at a Hollywood premiere in a simple white button-down and slim trousers. The ultimate goal of '90s fall fashion was to achieve a casual elegance.
Every day, I wake up, look at my closet, and wonder how I can achieve that effortlessly cool '90s celebrity fall fashion look. I'm talking Jennifer Aniston, Halle Berry, Iman, Cindy Crawford, Elle Macpherson… The list goes on. Minimalism and clean lines defined the decade, with not a logo in sight, just elevated basics styled to look rich. That's precisely why each one feels so timeless and easy to replicate because chances are you already own a similar piece.
I can't get these 10 '90s celebrity fall fashion looks out of my head, so I've decided to re-create them with modern finds from Nordstrom (my go-to for all my fall shopping). Scroll down to discover the timeless '90s inspiration and how to wear it this fall.
