44 Boy Band-Inspired Styles

From Bright Boyish Pictorials to High Fashion Heartthrob Shoots

— March 26, 2013 — Fashion
One of the best parts about the 90s was the influx of popular boy bands in the music scene, and while there aren't as many around as there used to be, these boy band-inspired styles are a great way to keep that generation of youthful fashion alive.

There's something very alluring and attractive about the style that boy bands portrayed, whether it be their care-free attitude or the blend of hipster apparel with preppy schoolboy looks, their impact on the younger generation of teens and youths continues to influence them to this day. From 90s-inspired skater styles to blazer jackets paired with hipster sunglasses, these boy band-influenced ensembles are a great way to pay tribute to these iconic styles of the past.
