“Twenty-five years ago, a show called ‘Gilmore Girls‘ premiered and, apparently, took the season of fall hostage,” quipped “Gilmore Girls” alum Lauren Graham, joined by former costar Alexis Bledel, at the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards on Sept. 14. Beyond it’s definitive aesthetic association with the early aughts, “Gilmore Girls” has been defined by its autumnal ambience. The enduring watchability of “Gilmore Girls” and impact the series had on Y2K style is a credit to the show’s continued accessibility. While Y2K fashion maintains its stronghold on nostalgic style trends, let “Gilmore Girls” be an example of how cozy fall dressing can remain understated and effortless, but still fashionable. “[‘Gilmore Girls’] proved you can mix Y2K playfulness with heritage polish and still feel modern,” Caccamo said.
