The 1990s, also known as "the
Nineteen Nineties" or
abbreviated as "the Nineties"
or "the '90s", was a decade that
began on January 1, 1990, and
ended on December 31, 1999.
The tenth and final decade of
the 20th century and the last
full decade of the 2nd
millennium ended on 31st
December 2000. The decade is
seen by many Western nations
as a period of peace and
prosperity, between the end of
the Cold War and the start of
the War on Terror.
The dominant youth
clothing fad at the
beginning of the 1990s was
fluorescent clothing in

and yellow. Hoop earrings
were also a popular
accessory for teenaged
girls and women in the
first years of the 1990s.
Plaid shirts were also
popular.
Popular colors for girls included
coral, hot pink, and turquoise. In
Britain and the USA, girls wore
oversized tee shirts, sweat
shirts, sweaters, slouch socks
worn over sweatpants or
leggings, black or white lace
trimmed bike shorts with
babydoll dresses, belts worn
with dresses, sweaters, and t-
shirts, flats, Keds, Converse
Chuck Taylor All-Stars, shortalls,
