Body jewelry in the 90s look is now celebrating its comeback

From the unadapted Nineties accessory to the jewelry trend in 2015: The septum piercing is suddenly back in fashion. Why more and more prominent noses now decorate a ring, how to wear it and how better not.

When it comes to styling, the 90s really had it all. Kurt Cobain's I-don't-care-grunge, poppy-shrill Spice Girls outfits or the high school chic à la 90210 - yes, who wanted, could live out fashion in the nineties. And if you have not spent the last few months under one stone, you already know it: the trends of the 1990s are coming back. Buffalo again sells his classic plateau, you wear again glitter nails, spaghetti straps, camouflage or septum piercing, read correctly, just the "bull rings" that were hip in the 1990s.

The septum pierces the connective tissue below the nasal septum cartilage. Sounds nasty, but especially does not scare off many celebrity women from this jewelry comeback. Rihanna's nose is adorned with an XXL nose ring on the cover of "W" magazine, Azealia Banks has one in her music video "Chasing Time" and stars like Lady Gaga, FKA Twigs and Zoë Kravitz also have one. Katy Perry even posted a video of piercing her nostril online. And the bloggers are ahead. So Aimee Song of "Song of Style" already wears a fine, golden ring through her nose.

And who thinks now " septum piercing, does not go at all", should take a look at this photo of Jessica Biel. Already a year ago, the actress showed up at the fashion event of the year, the "Met Gala" in New York, with a delicate nose ring in gold on the red carpet. A daring look for Jessica Biel, who is not otherwise known for fashionable courage. And? It looked great! Elegant, almost classic. A cleverly set accessory that does not steal the show from the rest of the styling and is still very special.

High time for a trend revival? Again! Because the septum piercing was not reinvented in the nineties. The nasal septum jewelry can be traced back to antiquity, can be found on millennia-old terracotta and clay sculptures and was often engraved in initiation rituals. 2015 is less about different tribal societies, but more about "hello, here I am!" Statement. Just like almost 20 years ago, wearers of a septum piercing want one thing above all: stand out!

So, if you still dare to follow the trend after this piercing video by Lady Gaga, that's what body jewelry is all about: Go for it, but then right! Because if you can poke your nose, the rest of the look should be right. Means: rather withhold the rest of the outfit. Schmuddel-Punk is not the topic here. In 2015, feminine style breaks make the look round (you can check it out on the Instagram account of Aimee Song ). And for those who do not want to be pissed: the first fake versions are slowly entering the shops. For example, now at Urban Outfitters (from about 6.50 euros).
