The 90s fashion revival is never-ending and while summer saw the return of low-rise women’s jeans and halterneck tops, with winter comes the return of cool-girl grunge dressing. Mix in the preppy pieces that are topping the style charts and the result? An effortlessly stylish look that’ll see you through the season.

Soft Grunge Style Rules

Grunge dressing is all about clashing prints and oversized silhouettes but select pieces in a darker colour palette for endless mixing and matching. Our butterfly print slip dress layered over a roll neck is ideal for daytime adventures but make it work for evenings out too by adding heels.

Butterfly slip dress with black lace detail, and black chunky boots

Pink Butterfly Print Satin Slip Dress £15, Blue Nylon Backpack £10, Black Quilted Jacket £15

Blue oversized slogan sweatshirt, and blue distressed jeans

Blue Slogan Sweatshirt £12, Ripped Dad Jean £17

If you want to go grunge, size-wise, the bigger the better. Our oversized slogan sweatshirts and women’s oversized tops are roomy enough to fit the aesthetic but take a size bigger than you’d usually to achieve a baggier shape. Distressed denim is key so switch out your classic skinny jeans for women for a pair of ripped mom or dad jeans from our latest collection to wear with.

How To Style A Check Shirt

Plaid shirts are synonymous with grunge style icons and our collection is packed full of dark checked pieces for your wardrobe. Our red checked overshirt can be worn over a top as an extra layer or buttoned up and tucked in. Team it with it’s co-ordinating skirt for preppy vibes or try it with PU trousers and a band tee.

Grunge Finishing Touches

Play with proportions by teaming a fitted look like our flared leggings and tie back top with a supersized padded coat or jacket. Remember, layered chains and chunky boots are the go-to accessories for completing any grunge inspired look. Choose from lace up or Chelsea boot styles and add a pop of trending cobalt blue with one of our bright bags.
