Y2K fashion, also known as 'Millennium fashion,' refers to the distinctive style trends that emerged in the late 1990s and early 2000s. This aesthetic is characterized by a mix of futuristic and retro elements, bold colors, and playful designs.
The Y2K fashion style emerged during a time of technological optimism and anxiety surrounding the turn of the millennium. It was influenced by pop culture, music videos, and celebrities of the era. The style declined in popularity in the mid-2000s but has experienced a revival in recent years, particularly among Gen Z and younger millennials.
