How Oasis’ 90s style continues to influence fashion today

From Brit-pop domination to present-day icons, the impact Oasis has had on British culture over the past 20 years is indisputable.

Now, the legendary Nineties band have just confirmed a world tour for 2025, which will mark the first time the Gallagher brothers have sung together on stage since 2009 – after famously feuding for over a decade.

Forming in Manchester in 1991, Oasis consisted of five members, including brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher. The group was heavily influenced by the relaxed and rebellious style of the Sixties, as Liam once told The Daily Mail: “[Mod was] better than the Madchester scene or Brit-pop or anything else. The clothes were cool. A lot of people had nothing in those days – just a scooter and a house party to go to in Brighton. But it was good.”

Oasis soon formed their own scene, becoming central to the Britpop movement, which was a celebration of British culture and a rejection of the (then dominating) American grunge. “The band’s look was quintessentially British and emphasised working-class roots,” says Sarah Ewens-Smythe, head of buying at Jacamo.

Both brothers have maintained their relaxed street-styles today, and also continued to hone in on their favourite garments.

And Oasis’ Nineties style continues to influence modern trends, from TikTok’s ‘bloke-core’ to the indie sleaze aesthetic. “Elements of Oasis’s style remains profoundly relevant,” says fashion expert Fausta Urte Geigaite.

“The ‘indie sleaze’ trend reflects a nostalgia for the gritty, authentic styles of the late Nineties and early 2000s, and the Gallagher brothers’ influence is integral to the look, as they continue to be celebrated for their anti-conformist appeal.”
