Fashion fans go wild as popular 90s trend RETURNS to Primark – the £14 buy is so ‘cool' & ‘smoothes over your figure'
FASHION fans are going wild as a popular 90s and early 2000s trend has returned to shelves in Primark. So if you're looking for fashion that's super nostalgic, then you've come to the right place. 4 Sophie Hawkins, a size 12 fashionista from Cardiff Bay, Wales, who recently showed off the best pair of stretchy shorts from H&M, has now taken to social media to show off her latest Primark haul, leaving many totally stunned. After taking a trip to her local Primark, Sophie nabbed all things from a matching blue co-ord and an orange swimsuit, to a black mini dress and a beach cover-up. But it was Primark 's new Gingham Capri Pants that left her particularly impressed. Posting online, Sophie showed off her new fashion finds and styled her new £14 capri pants with the matching £12 top. She accessorised the outfit with a pair of gold heels and a gold bag, as well as a pair of stylish sunglasses. Alongside her short clip, the high-street shopper, who is 'addicted to fashion ', wrote: 'Am I trying to be Gretchen Wieners making fetch happen with a capri pant or do they need to be returned?' The capri pants, which are decorated with an all-over gingham print, are sure to turn heads this season. According to Primark bosses, shoppers will 'level up' their new season rotation and 'embrace warm weather days in style with these must-have capri pants'. The iconic trousers, which first gained popularity in the 1950s and 60s, saw a major resurgence in the late 90s and early 2000s, feature a summer-ready gingham print that instantly draws the eye. They are cut to a cropped length that's 'perfect for sun-soaked moments' and the soft fabric has a handy stretch to it. 'I need it all ASAP!' fashion fans gasp as Primark prepares to drop new summer range, including a 'beach bag of dreams' As a result, those at Primark have described these pants as a 'comfortable option that's perfect for everyday wear.' Not only this, but Primark bosses have also claimed that the cropped design 'adds to their cool and casual appeal'. Why Primark is great for looking expensive on a budget By Clemmie Feildsend, Fabulous Fashion Editor AS someone who's no stranger to grabbing a last-minute outfit from Primark for a night out, it's about time that celebrities started catching on too. For as long as I've been heading out, Primark has been my go-to for those 'I have nothing to wear' moments, rushing in at the last minute to find something perfect. And I'm definitely not alone - on any Friday or Saturday night, you'll find plenty of shoppers doing the same thing, right before closing time. But no matter what, Primark always delivers. Now, Rita Ora is leading the charge, showing that you can snag a designer-worthy look without spending a fortune at high-end stores. While Rita's not rushing in last minute for a red carpet outfit, she's proving you can achieve the same high-impact style for much less. Looking stunning in her tailored suit alongside her mum Vera, Rita fit right in among the other A-listers dripping in Prada, Dior, and Victoria Beckham - if anything, she looked even better than some of the guests at The Fashion Awards. With Myleene Klass and Roxy Horner already jumping on the Primark bandwagon, I'm sure more stars will be following suit soon enough. And that's not all, as these pants also feature a 'flattering slim fit that smoothes effortlessly over your figure.' Many will be pleased to know that sizes range from a 6 to a size 20 and these capri pants are now available to order on the website's new Click & Collect feature. Fashion fans react The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ sostylishsoph, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 156,000 views. Not only this, but it's also amassed 4,006 likes, 42 comments and 586 saves too. Fashion fans were left open-mouthed by Sophie's haul and many raced to the comments to share their thoughts. One person said: ' Pedal pushers!! Used to love those back in the 90s.' Top Primark summer buys IF you're looking for more Primark summer buys, then you've come to the right place. Shoppers have recently been raving about the new Miffy PJs from Primark. Others were desperate to nab the new leopard print nightwear. If animal print is your thing, you'll want to check out the new maxi skirts. The haltnerneck tops are perfect for summer. If you're on a budget, these trousers are identical to a pair from Zara, but without the hefty price tag. There's brilliant travel essentials for less than £10. And if you plan on heading to the beach, you won't want to miss these crochet bags. Another added: 'All these outfits look amazing on you.' A third commented: 'All looks stunning!!' Meanwhile, someone else beamed: 'Absolutely gorgeous.' Not only this, but another fashionista chimed in: 'Need the little orange outfit.'

90s Twinning is the latest fashion trend stars can't get enough of -as Kylie Jenner & Maya Jama kick off summer revival
CLEBRITIES are dressing vintage. And we don't mean thrifted clothes from charity shops. 9 9 Not only do they have access to their own wardrobes, but of the archives of famous design houses from years gone by. Why would they want to wear something they already own, when they could delve into some iconic looks of the past that regular folk don't have access to. From red carpets to holiday snaps, the A-listers are taking a sustainable approach to fashion by digging out looks worn by other celebs decades previously. 9 Just last week Kylie Jenner wore a red crystal bikini reportedly costing $10,000 from Chanel that was originally worn by Claudia Schiffer in the 90s on the runway. And at the Golden Globes fans were left stunned as she channelled Elizabeth Hurley in a 1999 Versace chainmail dress. Plus 90s icon Pamela Anderson has lent Millie Bobby Brown clothes from her own wardrobe, from decades gone by this year for her film tour of The Electric State, after Millie wanted to embrace 90s fashion for the promo tour. Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale takes a look at how 90s twinning is the latest trend that these stars can't get enough of. Kylie Jenner twinning Claudia Schiffer 9 Kylie loves a 90s throwback, having worn multiple 90s archive dresses to award ceremonies this year such as the Golden Globes and the BAFTA's, she's taken her love for archival fashion one step further this month - by wearing it to the beach. Whilst on holiday in Turks and Caicos the 27-year-old posed in a red crystal Chanel bikini first seen on the catwalks modelled by Claudia Schiffer in 1995. The bikini now reportedly is worth $10,000. The high res bikini bottoms are spot on trend of the styles of today's modern swimwear, showing how timeless swimwear can be. Maya Jama safety-pinning as good as Elizabeth Hurley Elizabeth Hurley was fairly unknown in 1994 when she stepped out on the arms of her then boyfriend Hugh Grant at the premier of Four Weddings and a Funeral, wearing a £3,000 Versace dress held together by safety pins. Sabrina Carpenter channels Madonna as she wears her vintage dress at MTV VMAs as fans praise the 'iconic' moment That dress alone catapulted her into stardom and is still one of the most iconic dresses of the 90s. So it's no surprise that celebrities would want to copy the look and whilst many have come close to wearing similar styles, Love Island presenter Maya was lucky enough to wear the dress for the MTV EMA's in November last year. And didn't she look sensational in it. Sabrina Carpenter shining bright like 90s Madonna 9 If you want to make a statement on the red carpet then why not look to one of the most famous women of the 90s and recreate one of her most glamorous looks. And that's exactly what Sabrina Carpenter did for the 2024 MTV VMA Awards. The 26-year-old wore a Bob Mackie gown from 1991 that was first designed and worn by Madonna for the Oscars. And the dress has even more of a historical past, with the design being inspired by Marilyn Monroe in the 1953 film Gentleman Prefer Blondes. Talk about an iconic history. The sparkly strapless gown screams Hollywood glamour and shows that that style really does stand the test of time. Millie Bobby Brown mirroring Gwyneth Paltrow 9 Millie Bobby Brown's latest film The Electric State is set in the 90s and the 21-year-old said for the promo tour she wanted to embrace the decade's fashion. And she certainly hit her brief. Not only has she been borrowing clothes from Pamela Anderson. But she's seen here at the Madrid premier for the film wearing a sheer Armani dress first worn by Gwyneth Paltrow in 1998. Gwyneth wore the dress for the premier of Shakespeare in Love that went on to win her an Academy Award. Maybe Millie is hoping the dress will bring her the same accolades. Jenna Ortega getting a Sarah Jessica Parker SATC look 9 Sex In The City was the TV show for fashion inspo in the 90s and Sarah Jessica Parkers character Carrie Bradshaw had a wardrobe many would be envious of. One of her most famous looks was a newspaper dress from Christian Dior worn in the third season of the show. Most recently Jenna Ortega stepped out for the premier of the Hurry Up Tomorrow premier wearing the same look. The Gen Z generation do love throwback fashion, after missing it the first time around so it's no surprise people went wild for the 22-year-old's look. With SJP even saying in an interview that I'm sure she looked great in it. Lupita Nyong'o going for Linda Evangalista catwalk style 9 Award ceremonies are the perfect time for celebrities to do something creative and glamorous with their look, which is what Lupita Nyong'o did at this years Oscars. The 42-year-old wore a custom Chanel gown that took 660 hours to construct and was made of 22,410 embroidered elements. The dress was a reimagination of a Chanel dress from 1991, first worn by supermodel Linda Evangalista on the runway. The dress was a hit, getting Lupita on a lot of peoples best dressed list and showing that dresses as fabulous as this should be worn more than once. All the naff 90s clothing Gen Z thinks is trendy Millennials survived Robbie Williams leaving Take That, the Y2K bug . . . and low-slung waists. Despite slating millennials every chance they get, Gen Z are now busy rifling through second-hand shops and pop culture archives trying to bring back the most disastrous trends. Fabulous ' Fashion Editor, Clemmie Fieldsend, shares the 90s fashion trends she thinks are "naff" but Gen Z think are "cool". "They told us skinny jeans were uncool and, while I agree with them, it's hard to take fashion advice from someone wearing a skirt over jeans and a knit Andi Peters would have worn on kids' TV. Pedal Pushers I was astonished when I saw Topshop pedal pushers stocked on Asos. They were the go-to trew of fashion's most unstylish era – the late Nineties, early Noughties. And now they're back on Emily Ratajkowski and Alexa Chung, and being sold on the high street. Fuddy Fleeces The naffest of all the Nineties fash deemed acceptable right now has to be the fleece – you probably had a knock-off Berghaus one back in the day. In October, customers went wild for F&F at Tesco's North Face dupe, which cost £37 (£283 less than the £320 original) and got seven million TikTok views. Cropper Coat The slightly padded waterproof coat is a hit with celebs at the moment. As far as I can see, this coat is inspired by one of TV's most unlikely fashion muses, Coronation Street character Roy Cropper, who has worn it for the past 30 years on the cobbles. But brands such as Prada and Bottega have seemingly been inspired by Roy's beige jacket."

EXCLUSIVE The TRUTH behind Pamela Anderson's viral 90s look revealed after sending fans into meltdown
Despite driving fans wild with an apparent return to her signature 90s style, can confirm that the recent glam shot of Pamela Anderson that went viral was a case of fake news. After makeup artist, David Velasquez, posted the image over the weekend, many of the Baywatch star's followers mistakenly believed she was making a comeback to her rock 'n' roll days days. A source, however, revealed the photograph was actually taken back in 2022. The insider also noted that 'Pamela was unware of the posting' and Velasquez has since deleted the post, which, inadvertently, caused widespread confusion. In the image, the actress, 57, can be seen rocking a red Versace robe, charcoal black liner, overlined beige lipstick and a dramatic pair of fake eyelashes. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The post garnered numerous reactions from fans as they quickly reacted to seeing her in heavy makeup for the first time in years. 'I love her no makeup look but this feels like home,' one fan commented. Another gushed: 'Wow! She looks even better than she did in the 90s! Sheesh!!' 'pammy out here reminding us she can eat us all up with or without makeup,' a third wrote underneath the post. Velasquez, who is followed by stars like Jennifer Lopez and Paris Hilton on Instagram, previously worked with Anderson on a 2022 Paper Magazine shoot. He has more than 89,300 followers and is based in Los Angeles. On her way to becoming one of Hollywood's most recognizable sex symbols, Anderson had a signature style that was idolized by millions. In the nineties, she was known for wearing copious amounts of eyeliner, dark smoky eyeshadow and her voluminous, slightly tousled blonde hair. Previously, the mother-of-two revealed that her perspective on beauty changed after her makeup artist, Alexis Vogel, died from breast cancer in 2019. '[Alexis] was the best. And since then, I just felt, without Alexis, it's just better for me not to wear makeup,' Anderson told Elle. She also said that going without makeup has been 'freeing, and fun, and a little rebellious too.' 'Because I did notice that there were all these people doing big makeup looks, and it's just like me to go against the grain and do the opposite what everyone's doing.' Pamela also remarked on aging and how it's been a 'journey' for her. 'I think we all start looking a little funny when we get older. And I'm kind of laughing at myself when I look at the mirror. I go, "Wow, this is happening to me?" It's a journey. 'I feel rooted for. I feel good. I'm in a good place.' Her decision to ditch cosmetics also stemmed from feelings that she often 'just went along with what people were telling me what to do' in the early days of her career. Anderson is best known for starring on Baywatch for five seasons, from 1992 to 1997, as the iconic role of C.J. Parker, a stunning lifeguard. Last year, she received critical acclaim for her 2024 drama The Last Showgirl and earned a Best Actress nomination at the Golden Globes and SAG Awards. Earlier this year, a source told that Pamela is delighted that she is 'being applauded for her toned-down looks and recognized for her true talent.' They said: 'Pamela has gotten so much positive feedback from women all over the world for her natural glow up. 'She has become an icon who is now known for baring her all-natural self. 'While Pam recognizes that a little more make up would have gone fabulous with her gown, she also realizes that this is not true to who she is anymore. 'To do herself up – whether at the awards or anywhere else for that matter – would make her not true to herself.' The insider added that 'part of her motivation' to cut back on her glam was because she wanted to 'strip away her Barbwire image and Baywatch personification' - and be viewed 'as a serious actor.' 'When she went into this, part of her motivation was to strip away her Barbwire image and Baywatch personification. Shew wanted to be taken as a serious actor,' they continued. 'Pamela realized her true talent when she played Roxy Hart on Broadway. This was life changing for her. 'Never in a million years did she think that she would have been nominated for an award like this.' Another source close to the star confirmed that she 'still wears light makeup from time to time' and that she has not sworn off make-up forever, instead just changing her relationship with it.
