Other nostalgic staples included shell suits, high ponytails, and the iconic little black dress.
The 90s was also voted as the decade with the most influence on today's fashion choices – with top overall trends revealed as Brit-pop, hip-hop, and grunge.
Respondents also voted for their favourite celebrity hairstyles of the era – with Jennifer Aniston's iconic "Rachel" haircut, Johnny Depp's floppy hair, and Victoria Beckham's Posh bob the official winners.
Most iconic UK fashion moments were decided as Princess Diana's revenge dress, Geri Halliwell's Union Jack dress at the BRIT Awards, and Liz Hurley's Versace safety pin dress.

Ashley Birch-Ruffell, spokesperson for FUNKIN COCKTAILS, which commissioned the research ahead of the launch of its new 90s classic cocktail, the Apple Sour Martini, said: '90s fashion is very on trend, and it's fun to see what our official favourite styles are.
'There are clearly many iconic hairstyles and memorable moments from this decade that live on in the public consciousness.
'It seems clear that 90s trends aren't going anywhere anytime soon – and why would we want them to.'
Younger generations are leading the revival, with over six in 10 Gen Z (64 per cent) and Millennials (63 per cent) saying the decade's fashion still influences their personal style – compared to just under four in 10 (39 per cent) of the total population.
Ironically, three quarters of Gen Z (75 per cent) and Millennials (76 per cent) feel nostalgic for the 90s, despite many of them being too young to fully experience the decade first-hand.
In contrast, fewer than two in 10 Boomers (19 per cent) say they feel the same, despite living through it as adults.
Almost nine in 10 (87 per cent) Gen Zs and 82 per cent of Millennials would also jump at the chance to revisit the 90s for one night to soak up the fashion and culture.
There were also some key trends that appealed to the younger demographic in particular – with a fifth of Gen Zs big fans of the space buns and the YTK aesthetic (22 per cent).
Whereas Millennials were found to be number one fans of the curtain hairstyle (18 per cent) and rave wear (17 per cent), according to OnePoll.com data.
And despite agreeing Diana's revenge dress couldn't be beaten, other top fashion moments for Gen Zs were Victoria Beckham's little black dress, Kate Moss's grunge look, and Naomi Campbell's metallic mini dress.
When asked who most embodies 90s style today, Harry Styles, Billie Eilish, and Rihanna took the top spots as beacons of this iconic decade.
To mark the launch of the Apple Sour Martini, FUNKIN COCKTAILS has teamed up with London based hairdresser, Duck & Dry to offer free 90s hairstyles alongside a trial of the canned Nitro cocktail.
Ashley added: 'It's clear that the whole culture of the 90s is still considered unapologetically iconic and we wanted to deliver the perfect cocktail to match that vibe – as well as helping people level up their 90s aesthetic.'

Gary Lineker's new ITV gig hits a roadblock as celebs turn DOWN offer to star over fears show is too hard
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) GARY LINEKER is struggling to fill the team sheet for his new ITV show The Box. Rumours that the new challenge show is fiendishly tough seem to have put off celebrity contestants — and I've heard that a number have turned it down. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 9 Gary Lineker is struggling to fill the team sheet for his new ITV show The Box Credit: Getty One of the famous names who has declined the offer is a sportsperson who is well used to hard graft. It comes after the show, which is a smash hit in Norway, was described as a cross between SAS: Who Dares Wins and I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. The combination seems to have left celebs quaking in their boots. A source said: 'Casting for The Box is under way but it sounds like a number of stars have turned it down as they don't fancy how hard it sounds. With I'm A Celeb, the Bushtucker Trials are awful but the pay-off is appearing on one of TV's biggest shows.' For The Box, stars will be taken to mystery locations in a big yellow box, before being released to face whatever game awaits. The challenges will be fun, exhilarating and immersive. A show source said: 'Unlike other shows, The Box isn't about facing fears, it's about stepping into the unknown. 'When the boxes open they'll be launched into a variety of unexpected, fast-paced daring, comedic and mischievous challenges.' First launched in Norway in January, the show finale was watched by one in five of the country's population. ITV reckons it will be a big Saturday night hit for them with Match Of The Day legend Gary at the helm. He said: 'It's going to be unpredictable and thrilling to watch, and I'm excited that I get to have a front row seat to all the action.' Let's hope they find enough celebs who are up for it.

I can reveal the broadcaster is working on a new show that educates kids on farming. Cameras will follow animal-loving youngsters as they learn about various livestock. Casting has already begun for an episode dedicated to chickens, with a note reading: 'Does your child love animals? Have they always wanted a pet? Are they a future farmer or vet? 'They'll visit a real-life farm to find out what it takes to raise happy and healthy chickens. They will follow the journey of an egg from coop to kitchen.' Sounds a bit more wholesome than some of the scenes down on Jeremy's Diddly Squat. The series will air later this year and you can visit to apply.

The lad has shot to fame after a video of him raving on the party isle with a Lego-style haircut, chunky gold chain, huge shades and bulging shoulders went viral. And now he has caught the eye of Big Brother bosses. Jack's new management has had talks with the ITV2 reality show about him appearing on the next series. A source said: 'The Ibiza Final Boss has really captured the nation's imagination and is the kind of character that makes for a fun housemate. 'Bosses had talks with his management. They thought it was worth a chat, whether it be for this series, even as part of a task, or for the future.'

As mysterious murderer John Sugden, he'd been part of one of the ITV soap's biggest storylines. The Sun revealed last week that he has just filmed horror scenes showing John attacking Mackenzie Boyd. Now he's ready for his curtain call. A source said: 'John's got away with so much but he's about to make a fatal mistake. 'Obviously Oliver knew that a character like John had a shelf life and that's rapidly approaching. 'He's loved his time on the show but there's still plenty of twists and turns coming before he departs for good.' John's downfall – and Ollie's exit – will air later this year.

She told Radio Times: 'We spoke to people in positions of power. We went to the House of Commons, and watched Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer battle against each other. 'We looked at Nicola Sturgeon, we looked at Theresa May. 'I think it's harder for women, as it is with most jobs. Breaking down the patriarchy isn't an easy task.

Last night on The One Show, Dani Dyer, Doctor Who actress Alex Kingston and footballer Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, were unveiled as part of the cast, too. Newlywed Dani said: 'Getting the opportunity to be on Strictly is the second most amazing thing I've done this year! I feel very very blessed and cannot wait to get my dancing shoes on.' Jimmy said: 'Swapping the pitch for the ballroom is certainly not something I've done before but I'm looking forward to tackling a fun challenge. Bring on a new type of footwork, with hopefully no own goals.' And Alex simply added: 'Aaaaagghhh!!!!!!'

‘Everything, I'm telling you' – Micah Richards convinced SNAPCHAT risks derailing Fulham's Premier League season
Alan Shearer and Gary Lineker had plenty to say in response Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MICAH RICHARDS believes Fulham will struggle this season after the club banned players from using SNAPCHAT. Richards left Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer stunned as he predicted that the social media outlet could be the downfall of Marco Silva's side in the new campaign. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Micah Richards predicts a Snapchat ban could ruin Fulham's season Credit: Getty 2 Alex Iwobi and Co were stopped from sharing behind-the-scenes snips by club chiefs Credit: Snapchat Fulham stars regularly provided behind-the-scenes Snaps of their journey to last term's 11th place Premier League finish. Fans were left loving the brilliant banter between their Craven Cottage icons. The regular Snapchat posts also gave a glimpse into the players' lives at the London club's training ground and stadium. But Alex Iwobi revealed in July that he and his Fulham teammates had been banned from further Snapchat posts by a member of staff. He told followers: 'For those that are wondering why I haven't been snapping BTS (behind-the-scenes) in the changing room, one person in the media team has been saying I haven't been catching the right stuff. 'So, there's no more BTS. They also said I might get fined if I continue to do so, they're trying to ban snap in our changing room. 'That's why I ain't been snapping BTS, it's a shame, I know you guys enjoy seeing what my team-mates are like behind the scenes. But, I have to respect the rules.' Now, former Man City title winner Richards reckons that Fulham's Snapchat clampdown could come back to bite the club. BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS Silva's side have only made one signing in back-up goalie Benjamin Lecomte, while two attackers have departed in Willian and Carlos Vinicius. But Richards believes the inability to post on social media will have a worse effect on morale than the lack of new arrivals. Fulham star Calvin Bassey shows Arsenal fans his bum at worst time possible Speaking on The Rest is Football podcast, Richards' fellow presenter Shearer first said: 'I don't see Fulham doing as well as they did last year. 'I've got them sixth-bottom, I think they'll have too much to have them in a relegation battle but just below last season.' Richards then noted: 'I agree. And their media person has stopped them using Snapchat, where you used to get all the insight, the videos and stuff. Great for chemistry.' This left Shearer amused as he responded: 'Excuse me, what the f**k has that got to do with the prediction, by the way?!' Richards continued: 'Everything, I'm telling you. You can't do the videos no more, you go in there, it's going to be silent, there's going to be no banter flying, so it could affect them. 'So I'm going to say they're going to be just below what they did last season.' Shearer gasped: 'No Snapchat, so they're going to be just below last season! That's the reason!' Host Lineker then summed up the conversation by adding: 'Too much c***chat, not enough Snapchat.'
