This ’90s Accessory Is Back in a Big Way

The ’90s gave us plenty of trends we swore we would never revisit, but some have managed to return with surprising strength. Case in point: the claw clip.

90s fashion accessory trend - the claw clip

Once considered a lazy-day hair fix, the claw clip is now everywhere — from runway shows to street style snaps to editor roundups. The difference? It has been reimagined as sleek, minimalist, and even luxury.

Why it works today:

  • It is functional; a quick way to pull hair back without damage.
  • It feels nostalgic without being costume-y.
  • Designers are updating it in new materials: tortoise, gold metal, matte black.

Style it with slick hair, small hoops, and a tailored blazer for the 2025 update. It is not just about holding hair anymore — it is about holding the whole look together.
