10 Reasons MTV's "Singled Out" Was the Most Stylish Show of the '90s

First off, this was the standard of dress. When the width of your collar is larger than your dignity, you're clearly in rare territory.

Even host Chris Hardwick, arguably the walking current-day embodiment of swaglessness, managed to stay pretty fresh.

This fashion-forward futurist in the red, who rocked the then-dwindling shirt-around-waist look, clearly knew it would come around again today due to the cyclical nature of fashion.  

The bizarre supporting cast stayed in odd, Joel Schumacher-Batman style costumes like this. Amazing.

The show served a visual reminder that there was always room for improvement. But that didn't mean you had to give one self-conscious fuck about personal appearance in the late '90s, which is the very definition of swagger.

Today's top influencers and their style, like B. Sales' angelic futuristic swag, were definitely taking cues from the show. Would B. Sales have achieved lord status if it weren't for recurring character Cupid (it's a dating show, duh).

This repeat contestant (shockingly always denied) reminded us to be fearless when it came to style.

The show serves as a reminder of simpler times, when the vest flourish was strong; as proved here by Fake Daniel Radcliffe and Not Anthony Mackie.

Boy Meets World did a crossover episode where Chris Hardwick completely cloned Eric Matthews' (Will Friedle) TGIF-approved sweater-Hanes-floppy hair look.
