19 Outfits From The Previous Decade That Shouldn’t Have Made It To The Screen

Who doesn’t love rom-coms from the early 2000s? They’re the best things to be obsessed over with charming love stories and eventful college life. These movies prioritize not just love but also the fashion aspect. There is always that one gorgeous star or character that has to shine when they appear.

But these outfits really stole the attention in a different way. How can some of these iconic moments have celebrities in these outfits?! We just can’t imagine now that we’re in 2021 where we can calmly assess how did people think those getups were right.

Fashion during the early 2000s, or Y2K fashion, was an ” interesting time in fashion,” as Nav Gill from Editorialist put it. A lot of us can still remember how during those days, people love going over the top, those baggy pants, oversize shirts, or super low-rise jeans for midriff exposure.

Fashion changes really fast, and as time goes by, they fall into a time category that signifies those time period’s icons. Where people love embroideries and shiny designer logos on their outfits, millennials led the fashion trend these days with minimalism. It is easy to rock the Y2K style; essentially, the louder you are, the better it is.
