I found this DKNY Jeans ad in one of my old magazines and immediately realized every girl looked like a very specific person from school. 😂
These outfits look so odd today! Haha!
The funniest part is that none of this looked like a costume in 2002. This was just… fashion. The low-rise pants. The unnecessary belts. The tiny layers. The chandelier earrings. The aggressively specific personality each outfit seemed to communicate.
And somehow, looking at these now, I can tell you exactly who each girl was supposed to be. 😂
Which one were you?
I was definitely the Goodie Two Shoes trying to look cool and fit in but totally failing!
