Shoppers divided as ’90s fashion trend makes its way back into stores

It’s official – ‘90s fashion has well and truly made a comeback in the 2020s.

Over the last few years, we’ve seen everything from crop tops to bucket hats and bike shorts return to the shelves, now more likely to be found in the closets of the next generation than our own.

‘90s babies have spotted yet another trend coming back – and this one we’re not so sure about.

Lace is back at Kmart!

Aussie content creator Stuff Mums Like has taken to Facebook after spotting a ‘90s trend making its way to Kmart.

“Lace is back in fashion in Kmart,” she wrote.

“Courtney Love is going to be ecstatic!”

Her post is filled with everything from lace tops to skirts and dresses.

“I’m ecstatic!”

Some commenters were thrilled to see lace make a comeback.

“I love me a bit of lace!!!! I loved it as a teen in the ‘90s and never mind that I’m 48, and a good 30kg heavier, off I go to Kmart,” said one person.

“This makes me happy,” another agreed.

“I’m ecstatic, I love lace,” said a third.

“Oh my gosh.. feeling old!”

But others weren’t so excited about the idea, with the majority saying it was too little, too late, and a few saying it was just plain ugly.

“Absolute spin out seeing the clothes I wore as a teenager back in shops (in time for my teenager to wear them),” said one commenter.

“I have a rule: if I wore it when it originally came out, I’ve no business wearing it 30 years later,” said another.

“I swear Kmart found a lost shipping container of an order from 1992 and thought, ‘Well, since we have it now…,” a third joked.

“I was having flashbacks walking through Kmart the other day! Suppose it’s been 30 years since I was 15 and wearing this stuff. Oh my gosh.. feeling old!” another person agreed.
