From baguette bags, velour tracksuits to low-rise bottoms, there’s no denying that Y2K fashion is blowing up all over Instagram. But other than the style of the noughties making a comeback, the overall 2000s aesthetic seems to be all the rave. Think over-the-top Lisa Frank prints, RnB artist montage shirts, and kitschy collages ala “artista notebooks” of yesteryears.

Adobe Photoshop Mix

With user-friendly and “smart” tools that will make cropping and tracing your outfit pics easy with a few simple taps, you can create multiple collages within minutes.

PicsArt

PicsArt is definitely our favorite when it comes to achieving the Y2K aesthetic. This powerful app has a variety of template, background, and sticker options as recommended by many TikTokers. Create fun and colorful images by selecting the “Pop Art” effects tool with your chosen collage. If you are a fan of light leaks, lens flare options are available, too!

InShot
Available in: App Store, Google Play
InShot is probably one of the most user-friendly collage apps out there. This app has a simple interface which helps you layout your photos and adjust your canvas with ease. Plus, you’ll be looking forward to the pattern backgrounds in this app.

Combining two photos together is a breeze with Union. The app also has access to royalty-free stock photos via Unsplash so you don’t need to worry about your background or adding extra elements to make your OOTD pop!

Cut & Paste Photos

As its name suggests, this app offers a variety of tools if you want to combine two images together, add stickers, and even achieve that surreal double exposure effect. Filters an image editing tools are also readily available if you want to color-grade your pics to have more of that Y2K feel.
Nichi

If you want customized grid filters that are fast and easy, then Nichi is for you. It has tons of free filters especially for polaroid, film, and vibrant themes for you to explore. Tweak with the background color and grid style to perfect your '00s inspired image. This might be your next favorite photo collage app.
