These old fashion trends are in the midst of a fashionable renaissance.
Fashion, they say never gets old... it only transforms for the better.
Time and again, we go back to history for inspiration and come back with something new and better.
Take a cue from these fashion queens who are sporting retro trends that are timeless and special.
Love for Same Colours
The same colour trend, also known as monotone isn't for everyone.
If you can carry it off well with the right pair of footwear and accessories, you are certainly a winner, just like Sonam Kapoor.

Trendy Overalls
Remember how much you adored watching Jennifer Aniston wearing these in American television sitcom Friends?
Back home, we have Sonakshi Sinha looking smart in overalls.
And her style suggests that if they're faded, all the more better.

Print Passion
There was a time when animal and huge floral prints were a fashion rage -- from clothes to bags, they were everywhere.
But now prints have gone all quirky and everyone's trying their hand at it.
Take a look at Taapsee Pannu effortlessly flaunting designer Neha Agarwal's colourful creation.
With prints, the deal is to go easy on the accessories.

Beautiful in Berry
Sporting berry hued lips was a haute trend in the 90s.
The trend has now returned and how.
Kareena Kapoor opted for an ox-blood lip shade on the ramp and clearly upped her fashion game.

Plaid Power
Gone are the days when punk style plaids were considered niche.
Thanks to designers like Urvashi Kaur, plaid inspired attires are now mainstream.

Cute Choker Neckpieces
From being a royal trend in the 1800s to undergoing a gothic takeover in the 1990s, this style has been revisited by women across the globe from time to time.
You can either keep it simple with a metal choker or take notes from model Ujjwala Raut and add a splash of glitter.

Sensational Slip Dresses
Did you know Marilyn Monroe swore by slip dresses?
It's comfy, feminine and makes you look lively.
Depending on the occasion, wear it with a pair of loafers or glam it up with strappy heels like this one.

Must-have Mom Jeans
Remember the time when coloured jeans was in vogue?
Representing a 'macro shift' in fashion, high waist jeans and shorts make for best casual attires.
Team it up with a full sleeve tee or crop top and complete your look with heels or boots.

Racy Round Sunglasses
Round glasses might remind some of you of John Lennon's famous rose tinted sunglasses, or pop singer Lady Gaga's unusual outings. But they make you look really cool.
