90s style for men

Those who managed to live in the nineties of the last century remember the unusual style of that time. During this period, all gender stereotypes that women should wear skirts, and men should wear only things in neutral colors, completely disappeared. People of that time gravitated towards freedom, self-expression and expressed this with their appearance.

The fashion of the 90s has not completely disappeared. Its individual features periodically return, becoming actual trends. The motto of that time called to be yourself, to be real. This zeal was expressed in clothing, makeup, hairstyles and accessories.

At the end of the last century, it was customary to dress provocatively, not paying attention to those who did not like the trends of that time. There were many different styles of clothing. A wide variety made it possible to choose the ideal option for each person, regardless of personal preferences and views.

Men's fashion of the nineties was not inferior to women's fashion in expressiveness, originality and brightness. Most of the styles reached the CIS countries from America, but Russia had its own fashion for the stronger sex, which we will discuss below.

The fashion of the time was significantly influenced by environmental and political conditions. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, most men were left without work. Enterprises, factories and other institutions were closed, so they had to look for other sources of income. As a rule, additional earnings were illegal. The result is the so-called "Big Man" style.

This image was the complete opposite of the colorful youth bow. The style for adults and business men included business garments and accessories. Its main element is a crimson jacket. It was paired with gray trousers. Complemented everything with a massive gold chain and watches. In the CIS countries, this image was called "New Russian".

Young and energetic people of that time also used bright colors to create a defiant appearance. The main musical direction of the 90s was rock, so fans dressed like artists on stage.
