During the pandemic, Gen Z had a lot of time on their hands to go back in time and find old hit songs from the 90\u2019s, create stars from a video app, and even change fashion trends to follow as fast as the seasons change.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Going to the mall the past few months you\u2019ve seen the grunge 80\u2019s style moves to a more electric 70\u2019s style, bringing in flare jeans and bright pops of color.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress.morningside.edu\/thecr\/files\/2021\/12\/Unknown.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14091\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wordpress.morningside.edu\/thecr\/files\/2021\/12\/Unknown.jpg 225w, https:\/\/wordpress.morningside.edu\/thecr\/files\/2021\/12\/Unknown-200x200.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption>Baggy \u201c90\u2019s Loose\u201d Fit&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress.morningside.edu\/thecr\/files\/2021\/12\/0223c5b2af0c2ad86b30aa8b70960670-533x800.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14090\" width=\"219\" height=\"330\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wordpress.morningside.edu\/thecr\/files\/2021\/12\/0223c5b2af0c2ad86b30aa8b70960670-533x800.jpeg 533w, https:\/\/wordpress.morningside.edu\/thecr\/files\/2021\/12\/0223c5b2af0c2ad86b30aa8b70960670-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/wordpress.morningside.edu\/thecr\/files\/2021\/12\/0223c5b2af0c2ad86b30aa8b70960670.jpeg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 219px) 100vw, 219px\" \/><figcaption>Flared \u201c70\u2019s Style\u201d Fit<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>You can see that history is repeating itself with these styles from different decades and how it\u2019s repeating from years past. The quirk to it is that the cycle isn\u2019t repeating as the trends changed with the incoming generations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI remember freshman year all of us girls had high waist skinny jeans with holes from American Eagle. I really don\u2019t know why we did that because looking back, they were so uncomfortable\u201d says senior Tenna Beel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This recent switch in trends lasted less than two years so it will be fun to see what the next style will be and how soon it will make its way onto social media for it to become the new trend.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the longer and baggier jeans, of course the shoes had to grow in height and volume. Popular brands now like Converse and Vans have the slim light skater shoes as their main shoe. In recent months as the denim changed, so did the shoe style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"201\" height=\"251\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress.morningside.edu\/thecr\/files\/2021\/12\/Unknown4.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14092\" \/><figcaption>Original &#8220;High Top Converse&#8221;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Platforms have grown in popularity this year with it starting with fancy boots or summertime sandals, to a complete re-style of brand staple shoes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress.morningside.edu\/thecr\/files\/2021\/12\/Unknown3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14093\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wordpress.morningside.edu\/thecr\/files\/2021\/12\/Unknown3.jpg 225w, https:\/\/wordpress.morningside.edu\/thecr\/files\/2021\/12\/Unknown3-200x200.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption>Converse &#8220;Run Star Hike&#8221; <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As for tops, cropped are still in style, just the actual pattern and material is what changes.
