//BACK TO BASIC
Fashion is extravagant, grotesque, loud and striking. But it's also minimalistic, clean and basic. I appreciate both and like a strong mix in my personal style. A basic navy cotton or wool sweater with a fake pink leather skirt.
In the nineties the basic clean look was big! Turtle neck sweaters, clean-cut coats in ton sur ton colors. Basic colors like, beige, black, white, navy in simple but smart silhouettes. Amazingly smart and chic, and of course timeless. I selected some of my favorite late nineties looks, so you can judge for yourself and see if you agree.
