Proof Winona Ryder's '90s Style Is Still Genius in 2018

For those of you who best know Winona Ryder for her recent turn on Stranger Things, we have some news for you. She is not just a super-talented actress; back in the day, she also served as a major style icon. Ryder helped put some of the biggest '90s trends on the map with her signature grunge aesthetic that defined the decade's fashion. Take one look at the current styles of offer—mom jeans, band tees, leather moto jackets—and you'll realize that fashion in the '90s didn't look so different from today's. Since we're finding ourselves pulling loads of style inspiration from the decade, we went ahead and took a trip down memory lane (i.e., our image archives) and came up with so many cool ensembles from the '90s It girl herself.

Now that all things '90s are back again, there's no better time to look to the cool ensembles Ryder pioneered the first time around. Choker necklaces? Been there, done that. The same can be said for a few more of fall's major trends, like velvet, slip dresses, and denim skirts. So, are you ready to see how the OG made '90s style look super cool? Take a look back at a few of Winona's most iconic style moments, and then shop similar pieces to wear now.

Long before Monica Rose put band tees on Kendall and Gigi, Winona was putting her own edgy spin on the concert T-shirt.

While Ryder tended toward edgier pieces, she knew exactly how to pull off a flirty floral print, too.

Mom jeans are a major of-the-moment denim trend, but Ryder's been nailing the high-waisted style since way back when.

Before the naked dress, Ryder was pioneering her own take on slinky, sparkly dresses.

What cooler way to wear a denim miniskirt than styled with an all-black look, including a sleek leather jacket?

Whether you prefer to tie a bandana around your neck or turn it into a cool headband, we're behind Ryder's accessory of choice.

It's hard to think of a piece more iconic than a sleek black leather jacket. Channel the '90s style star by pairing it with head-to-toe black.

You can expect to see velvet just about everywhere this fall, but never forget that Ryder aced the look back in the day.
