How nepo baby offspring of Britpop stars are leading re-birth of Cool Britannia – but one key part won't be coming back

COOL Britannia is back – and that's official. High society bible Tatler is among those making the declaration on its new edition, which features the offspring of Nineties music legends Advertisement 10 Love Island host Maya Jama recreates Liz Hurley's iconic 1994 dress Credit: Getty 10 Liz in the famous Versace safety pin dress that she wore to the Four Weddings And A Funeral premiere in 1994 Credit: Getty Heralding the rebirth of the Britpop-era movement, the magazine pictures Molly Moorish-Gallagher and musician Anyone over the age of 40 is likely to spot the obvious homage being paid to a similar front cover published by Vanity Fair in 1997. That iconic picture saw Oasis singer Liam sharing a bed with his then girlfriend, actress Patsy Kensit.

While Molly says her idea of a wild night is: 'Seeing friends, some good food and drinks and playing games of some kind.' But if the Cool Britannia nepo kids aren't keeping the Nineties hedonistic vibe going, it seems Gen Z-ers are keeping the momentum going through fashion. Love Island host Maya Jama recently recreated Liz Hurley's famous Versace safety pin dress that she wore to the Four Weddings And A Funeral premiere in 1994.

A new study has also revealed that youngsters are now huge fans of some of the decade's greatest hairstyles, including The Rachel from Friends, the floppy hair of actor Johnny Depp and Victoria Beckham's Posh bob. 10 It's all about the flag for singer Lola Young - seemingly a nod to Geri Horner's Ginger Spice Credit: Instagram/lolayounggg Advertisement 10 Geri rocking the iconic Girl Power outfit Credit: Alamy 10 Lennon Gallagher in Burberry jacket last week...

Advertisement Ashley Birch-Ruffell, from Funkin Cocktails, said: 'Nineties fashion is very on trend, and it's fun to see what our official favourite styles are. 'There are clearly many iconic hairstyles and memorable moments from this decade that live on in the public consciousness. 'It seems clear that Nineties trends aren't going anywhere anytime soon — and why would we want them to?' 'It's clear that the whole culture of the Nineties is still considered unapologetically iconic.' Advertisement Gen Z can't match our hellraising era IT was a sensational whirl of bucket hats, Union Jacks, lads' mags, boozy bands and more than a whiff of the old marching powder, writes Rod McPhee. The late Nineties were a hellraising golden age not seen since the Swinging Sixties. But despite being due another period of partying, I'm sorry to say we'll never quite be able to match the magic of the original Cool Britannia. Trust me, I was there, I did it. I got the T-shirt – and the dodgy Liam Gallagher shaggy haircut What's more, I loved it all. From music to fashion, and movies to models, the run-up to the year 2000 was the perfect blend of sex and, yes, drugs, plus lashings of rock 'n' roll. Of course, it's great to get a taste of the good old days when Oasis stage their comeback tour next week, plus there's the prospect of the Spice Girls doing a similar celebratory event next year. But nothing can once again live up to a period in modern pop culture history which I believe was genuinely unique. Maybe I'm looking back at the past through rose-tinted glasses. But no pop groups, artists, catwalk stars or actors these days come close to the tearaway Primrose Hill crowd that kept us entertained and shocked three decades ago. That said, no one would love reliving some of the brilliance of the Nineties more than me. So let's make the most of summer 2025.
