Meg Ryan’s latest look is serving up a healthy dose of nostalgia.

While promoting her romantic comedy What Happens Later, the actress, 62, wore an ensemble reminiscent of her iconic ‘90s style. At the BCN Film Fest in Barcelona, Ryan posed for photos in a chic tan maxi skirt, a black vest top and chunky black shoes. She accessorized with a gold necklace and, in a nod to her signature look, a pair of round wire sunglasses.

With roles in films like When Harry Met Sally (1989), Sleepless in Seattle (1993) and You've Got Mail (1998), Ryan quickly became a style icon of the ‘80s and ‘90s. Her laid back-yet-polished looks became huge trends at the time and have recently made their way back into the trend cycle.

In the fall of 2023, TikTok creators began infusing their outfits with Ryan’s trademark cozy style (think: chunky sweaters, oversize blazers and loafers), dubbing the season “Meg Ryan fall.”

The actress reacted to the trend in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, saying it was “so sweet.”

“It is the cutest thing ever,” she said. “I saw pictures of girls trying on hats. I don't know why it has anything remotely to do with me, but it is so sweet. It kills me.”

She also shared that her on-screen style isn’t a far cry from her current wardrobe.

“There are certain types of blazers that I like,” the actress said of her approach to putting outfits together. “There's certain flat shoes, basically orthopedic-looking shoes, and baggy pants.”

Ryan’s short, choppy haircut — also known as “The Meg — became a hallmark of her look in the ‘90s. When the star embraced the style for her appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers in October 2023, fans were quick to notice the similarity.

At the time, Ryan’s longtime hairstylist Sally Hershberger told PEOPLE that she didn’t expect such a strong reaction to the actress’ new look.

“I completely forgot about how big of a deal her hair was,” she said. “It wasn’t premeditated.”

Hershberger created “The Meg” on the set of French Kiss in 1995. The messy-chic look quickly gained popularity, which Hershberger attributes to women’s desire for undone styles.

In January 2024, Ryan put a fresh spin on “The Meg” during a rare red carpet appearance at the Critics Choice Awards. She sparkled in a black sequin strapless Saint Laurent gown and minimal accessories, her signature layered bob in an effortless straight.

What Happens Later marked Ryan’s return to the screen for the first time since her 2015 directorial debut Ithaca. The film (which Ryan wrote, directed and stars in) also stars Californication and X-Files alum David Duchovny. It follows a pair of ex-lovers (Ryan and Duchovny) who unexpectedly reunite for the first time in decades after a snowstorm leaves them stuck at an airport overnight.
