Olivia Rodrigo's latest look has us nostalgic for 90s fashion
We're totally bugging over her 90s-inspired outfit
We all know that trends tend to live in a cyclical fashion, meaning that every so often they make a reappearance. Lately, 90's fashion trends have been making a comeback, and it would seem everyone—even Olivia Rodrigo—is getting in on the action.
After showing off her favorite Glossier product, the Sour singer is now giving us a peek inside her fashion range with an edgy red and black plaid dress paired with over-the-knee open-toed platform boots. The complete look makes her look almost like a real-life Bratz doll.

The outfit is a departure from the softer looks that Olivia normally puts together and channels serious Alt-Girl-attitude evoking the spirit of punk and grunge that the 90s cool-crowd—Kurt Cobain, PJ Harvey, Courtney Love—were known for.
