This Peak ‘90s Brand Is Better Than Ever — & You’ll Want These Seasonal Must-Haves

Nineties trends are dominating fashion circles, which is why it makes sense to revisit a brand that all but defined ‘90s style: The Gap. There was Sharon Stone in a Gap turtleneck at the Oscars and Naomi Campbell in that iconic Gap ad in a classic white tee. While the brand might not be the first you think of for your modern-day uniform, its latest drop full of wearable basics is proving it should be. Breezy takes on linen, 90’s-inspired cargo, and on-trend pastels feature heavily, all with cool-kid energy that makes for an easy, chic, and curated spring/summer wardrobe. The effortless pieces are easy to mix and match — so consider this your call to action to stock up for the season.

Top notes from the latest collection include mixable linen and cotton-blend separates that deliver infinite looks, cargo skirts and pants that feel at once nostalgic and modern, and airy shirt dresses that can take you from office to the beach. There are also classic accessories that deliver casual-chic touches. All come with that “style me how you please” verve.
