The year 1994 is back and glourescent mini dresses, UFO overalls, and lime goggles are hitting the fashion scene. Leading the charge is Donatella Versace's protÃ©gÃ©, Christopher Kane. This trend, known as New Rave, is hitting everywhere from East London to New York's Lower East Side.

[Radar Online](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instore-inventory-management) puts it best: "Get your glowsticks readyâ€”for better or for worse, twinky, tacky [raver fashion is coming back](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fitness-rave). .... According to the [British Sunday Times](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mutable-tactics), the hip and the beautiful people are doing it too: "New rave is a second coming: not just a throwback to the lawless euphoria of its golden age, but an aesthetic focus for a new generation of club kids, artists, fashion students and night-time celebrities who just want to dress up and get down."
