The ’90s and 2000s nostalgia has been going strong for quite some time, and some of Hollywood’s biggest stars decided to take it to their advantage. Archival looks inspired by these eras became a huge red carpet craze, taking us decades into the past, and these five stars love them as much as the rest of us.

Kaia Garber

Kaia Garber’s mom Cindy Crawford has always been her biggest fashion inspiration, and she decided to pay homage to her by wearing her ’90s Oscars gown by Hervé Leger to the Toronto Film Festival.

Blake Lively

Blake Lively’s press tour for her latest film It Ends with Us was one for the books, and she created quite a splash when she attended the film’s world premiere in Britney Spears’ iconic rainbow Versace dress.

Sabrina Carpenter

Sabrina Carpenter served Old Hollywood glamour at this year’s MTV VMAs, where she hit the red carpet in a magical silver beaded gown by Bob Mackie, worn by Madonna to the Oscars during the ’90s.

Halsey

Several stars brought ’90s nostalgia to the red carpet at the MTV VMAs, including Halsey. She promoted her new album The Great Impersonator in an animal print Versace gown, once worn by Elizabeth Hurley.

Taylor Russell

We can always count on Taylor Russell to impress us with her fashion choices, and she did it once again at the Venice Film Festival in this white gown with a dramatic skirt overlay from Chanel’s 1993 couture collection.
