90's Socks

In the 1990s, a very interesting fashion trend occurred in Japan. This trend was super popular among teenagers, especially those in high school. This trend included socks. In Japan, students wear a uniform and they are required to wear it a certain way. This means they can’t have their skirt be too short or wear their shirts or vests in an incorrect way. However, many students find ways to work around that and wear their uniform in their own unique way. Students in the 90s decided to use their socks in a creative way.

In Japan, girls would take thigh-high socks and push them down so it created folds all the way down. Then, they would glue or sew the socks so they stayed that way. This was a very popular form of wearing socks, however, it’s odd. The sock trend was seen as very cute in Japan.

Below are five Japanese high schoolers wearing these trendy socks:
