A favourite of Gen Z and nostalgic Gen Xers, the 90s remain a beloved moment in fashion and culture. It was the last analogue decade, a time when DIY aesthetics, zines, and landlines were the norm.

The Nineties X Anna Sui goes in depth with the designer in her own words about her raucous shows and the many inspirations for her clothes that were the epicentre of the fashion world. A self-taught historian of culture, art, and fashion, Sui samples music, books, movies, photography, and art in her designs.

From the iconic slip dresses donned by the "it girls" of the moment, like Winona Ryder and pop icon Madonna, to the baby-doll dresses favoured by Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love, each chapter details the defining moments and trends of the era. These range from the rebellious energy of punk, grunge, and rock, to the ethos behind her preppy and vintage-inspired designs.

Featured throughout the book are interviews with friends and colleagues Marc Jacobs, Sofia Coppola, Christy Turlington Burns, and Steff Yotka, who talk about Sui's singular sartorial genius.
