In the never-ending battle of which decade is the best, it’s the 1990s for Millennials. 61% of Gen Y feel nostalgic for the ’90s, and they’re accompanied by a surprising 37% of Gen Zers, who were mostly born in the 2000s. For Millennials, it’s a time when they were kids, carefree, and having fun.
For others, it’s all about the distinct ’90s aesthetic: grunge, vintage PCs, Seinfeld, and Kate Moss. If you find it pleasing, then you’ll probably love Nineties Anxiety. It’s the place for all things related to the ’90s. Whether it’s a nostalgia-inducing pic with an old-timey cellphone or a cool shot of a young Leo DiCaprio – they’ve got you covered!
