The countless romantic comedies of the '90s and early 2000s are what we at B+C were raised on. There’s something so magical and nostalgic about watching those rom-com movies now. Among the laughs, heartache and heartbreak, the fashion featured in these classic flicks is what especially catches our eye. There are so many '90s fashion trends we love. We admire Kat’s tomboy-ish style in 10 Things I Hate About You, Cher’s eye-catching plaid sets in Clueless, and Jules’ flowy formal fits in My Best Friend’s Wedding, to name a few.
