2000S

Fashion has come into its own this century, cherry-picking trends from previous decades and reinventing them. Both men’s wear influences and ultra-feminine styling dominate the stores – colour blocking, bold prints and textures continue to be on trend.

Suddenly, beauty can be bought by way of Botox, fillers and lasers to achieve plumped-up lips, chiselled cheekbones and flawless skin. Do you want long hair? No problem, get extensions. Brows stopped growing? Replace them with feather tattooing. Make-up gets more innovative with the likes of cushion foundations.
