For those who have lived through the 90s, it won't take you too long to recognize the flavor and spirit of the unforgettable decade permeating through the [DKNY](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dkny-and-roblox) and Opening Ceremony collaboration collection.

If these pieces look at all familiar, then it isn't just coincidence, because the founders of Opening Ceremony, Carol Lim and Humberto Leon, have decided to reissue 15 of DKNY's [iconic pieces from the early 90s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/subware). The photo shoot embodies the style of the decade by taking inspiration from such rap artists as Run DMC and as well as the multiple bun hairstyle that several pop artists donned. The capsule collection is primarily made up of large printed t-shirts, sweaters and jackets, many of which have huge screen prints of the DKNY log and the NY skyline.

If there was ever a doubt that the 90s was coming back in full swing, the [DKNY and Opening Ceremony capsule collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dkny-x-fashionverse) proves it.
