These nineties runways hosted some of fashion's most iconic model moments
Who doesn't love a bit of fashion nostalgia?
Don't get us wrong - we live for new offerings from designers, we love today's super popular models (including the likes of Gigi Hadid, Adut Akech and Kaia Gerber), and we're all for innovative fashion that's changing with the times - particularly in terms of sustainability - but, that being said, we can't help but pine after fashion catwalks from the past.
You know, before we watched shows through the lens of a camera phone, back when The Supers ruled the runways...
In the name of escapism - because boy do we all need some of that right now - we've brought you the best in classic catwalks.
From Moschino's Roman-empress models in 1988, to Versace's lip-synching Supers in 1991 (you know, the one that initiated the major reunion on the runway in September 2017)- not forgetting Karl Lagerfeld's roller-skate-clad models in 1994.
Oh, and a twenty-year-old Kate Moss who is equal parts adorable and powerful.
Swoon...

Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana's 1993 autumn/winter show featured big skirts, tailored suits and over-embellished outerwear. The Italian roots of the brand shone through as much as they do till this day.

In 1994, Dior - under the creative direction of Patrick Lavoix - showed its haute couture collection in Paris. We're in awe.

Gucci's 1995 autumn/winter show goes down in history as one of the most iconic catwalks of the 90s. With Tom Ford as the Creative Director, sales were lifted by 90% as a result of the collection. Madonna even wore Kate's velvet look (far right) to the VMAs that year.
