y’all be tryna gate keep the entire era of y2k when literally so many different types of groups contributed to it, so here are SOME of the different styles y2k has to offer, a thread hoę:

first of all y2k is specifically a futuristic type of fashion sense. but since social media permanently changed the definition, let’s get into the other looks then!

honorary mention: harajuku girls

moral of the story, the spectrum of y2k is broad. we can speak on our impacts obvi but we can’t gatekept an ENTIRE era, now let’s go touch some mf grass..

that being said, the y2k inspired looks black ppl are doing now is very tailored to us & how we express fashion hence why when a yt person dresses the same way, it looks weird lmao.. but there are so many y2k styles, u can tailor it to YOU rather than copying what fits us.

now last but NEVER least,
NIGERIAN Y2K / NOLLYWOOD BABES
