I still can't get over how she keeps getting hotter as she gets older. It's not right.

hahahaha milo z horribly OTM. It's amazing how if I saw a girl in that exact getup today I'd be like "ugh," like now that same look connotes some sort of "alt" wannabe loser bore. Although maybe I'm just kidding myself and actually it still connects, viscerally...

lock thread imo
This thread really is making me question how much my sexual "ideal" really was shaped by the media images of my adolescence. I mean, like, duh, but also, wow.
― Doctor Casino, Thursday, 23 February 2012 21:57 (fourteen years ago)
all these images do look 90's, but i really can't point to something specific about them that dates them. i mean, some of them could pass as 80's or the 00's. what makes them look 90's?I think two things you can definitely point to (there are loads more!) is that noses are bigger, and hair less blonde, than in either 00s or 80s hot? With the noses the it's probably just surgery but the hair I think is the story of alt going mainstream?― Gravel Puzzleworth, Monday, May 24, 2010 11:55 AM Bookmark Flag Post Permalink Re: recursive Esquire cover just above.

Obviously that was all in play but (I think) not anywhere to the degree as in the 00s.

To further elaborate my crackpot theory: I wonder how much of the look-and-feel is also just that most of these images are print shots from magazines scanned to GIF or JPEG in the 90s, as opposed to being digital from the get-go. There's a certain grain that just makes scrolling through this thread feel retro even if you aren't looking at all the dreamy folk.
― Doctor Casino, Thursday, 23 February 2012 22:10 (fourteen years ago)
That GAP ad is from http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/pictures-that-perfectly-capture-the-90s which is fantastic although it needs a UK 90s equivalent.
