2018 fashion trends ranked from best to worst

Each and every year, fashion evolves and new trends are formed. Often, trends of the past are even given new life. While they may resemble former styles, they're often more like a distant cousin than a twin. In 2018, reclaimed looks — especially from the '90s — are picking up steam in a big way.

If you came of age in the '90s or the aughties, you may think it a little too soon to revive, and relive, our past fashion choices. However, this '90s revival may actually be a little later than usual. Vogue explained that fashion trends tend to be recycled about every fifteen years or so. It seems fashion designers have given us a little extra time to come to terms with our feelings about the iconic decade. Nevertheless, these trends are not all bad. In fact, some of them are really fun and, dare we say, chic. Here are the absolute best to the absolute worst trends of 2018.


Sequins are here to stay


Sequins may be the best, and arguably biggest, trend of 2018, but that's not when the shiny discs got their start. You may think of the 1920s as the origin of the trend. As it turns out, though, the use of sequins in clothing has been dated as far back as the Egyptian King Tutankhamun's rule in the early 1300s B.C. In fact, he was buried in his beloved sequins. And, if a mummy can pull them off, that just goes to prove that sequins look good on everybody.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, major designers including Marc Jacobs, Simone Rocha, and Tom Ford debuted sequinned looks on runways in spring 2018. Millie Bobby Brown, Allison Janney, and Nicole Kidman embraced the shimmering trend when attending the SAG Awards. Mandy Moore, too, proved there's no such thing as too many sequins by sporting a full-length blue gown by Ralph Lauren at the same awards show.
