Grunge hit its stride all the way back in the early 1990s. I was wearing Ninja Turtle underwear, Nirvana ruled the radio and no one spelled George Bush with a W. It was a great time.
In honor of all that was great during the early 1990s, I have put together the 25 grunge get-ups which reflect the fashion of the time.
Implications - Rock music and fashion go hand-in-hand. Many designers have taken inspiration from the look of bands and their fans and transformed music genres into new styles that the mainstream was likely unaware of. Whether it's punk, glam or rock, rock stars have always been influencers on the fashion world introducing a whole new counterculture style that's often attractive to consumers.
