NEW JACK SWING
This is how we do it.  It’s Friday night, and I feel all right. The party is here on the Eastside.
How to ‘do’ the 90’s if you’re not so keen on the EAST 17 vibe (which only requires a black beanie and sportswear, Doc Martens optional), NEW JACK SWING IS THE ONE you’re looking for.
It’s basically flattering high waisted tailored trousers and a button up blouse. Would work better if the blouse was shorter (showing 90s mid rift and the high waistline/belt).  Best part about this look is that its super comfy and flattering to wear.  Also this is a classic trouser cut, which can be adapted easily as your style changes.
Do: Wear you’re hair up, take inspiration from this i-D short on sports wear hair, play around with footwear and jewellery to enhance the look.
Don’t: dress like MC Hammer (a little too extreme)
Trousers and shit both purchased from The Brotherhood opportunity shop in Melbourne for less than $5 each.
