The Big Lebowski was released in 1998 and set in 1991. Could the Dude's outfit be considered 90s or was he wearing retro? Basically wondering if I could wear this to a 90s theme night. TITTIEKISSER69 has a new favorite as of 14:27 on Jul 8, 2023 |

The NIN album Hesitation Marks had a few covers that had a similar aesthetic (especially the bottom right). Obviously similar to The Downward Spiral in style.

Yeah! 90s NIN absolutely tapped into that, and I was huge into them up until The Fragile and then kind of fell off . Ok Comboomer posted:you’re talking about that ‘mid-to-late IRS era/early-WB era REM’/Cocteau Twins/“arts and crafts” aesthetic. Yes, this is exactly it. I can see what you mean, and I've seen some nautical aesthetics creep back, but not quite in the "dead" way these artists did. Disco Pope has a new favorite as of 15:33 on Jul 8, 2023 |

Drug Rug was such a good name for those hoodies. So many boys I went to Jr and high school with. Though I associated them mostly with classic rock kids, which I mean, that tracks. I still see them once and a while. I always wonder if they still make them or they're vintage.

Sadly, there were no blacklight posters of mushrooms and wizards though.

You go to enough swap meets and farmers markets you'll learn the drug rug never went out of style. My 18 year old niece is wearing my brother's from 30 years ago.

I've been wearing them for years and I don't even do drugs I was on call once at a hospital one night and I showed up in mine with my hair down looking like poo poo (because it's 2 a.m. and I came in the back, who cares) and the night supervisor thought I had snuck in until she saw me clocking in so that was embarrassing to have to be like no I do work here no I am not homeless or high they're just comfy

They're still just called Bajas around here (NE TN). I first heard the term drug rug a couple of years ago from someone who had moved here from up north (which some might refer to as a carpetbagger, but that's more 1890's than 1990's, although it still keeps with the theme of the thread).
