Globalisation influenced the decade's clothing trends with the incorporation of Middle Eastern and Asian dress into mainstream European, American and Australian fashion.
The fashion trends that dominated between 2000 and 2009 is mainly 'boho-chic'. It is a combination of nontraditional eclectic styles influenced by gypsies and hippies. This style is a balance between messy and feminine look, while establishing a sense of uniqueness and individuality.

At the same time, the American version of the modern bohemian was popularised by the Olson Twins (Mary Kate and Ashley), and became fashionable in areas of New York City, specifically Greenwich Village and Soho. The trend caught on Boho-chic influenced the resurgence of vintage shops, especially in New York City, as many celebrities have been seen scouring the racks for individualised jewels.
