This was like, 5% of millennials. Trust me, I was one of them. We got our asses kicked for dressing this way. Most everyone else either did "gangsta" style with low-hanging pants and Timberland boots/Jordans, or "preppy" style with a boring-ass polo shirt and khakis.
Don’t forget about thrift store style! Which wasn’t a style back then. Advantage though, us thrift store kids could switch styles daily. ‘Gangsta’ Monday, ‘emo’ Wednesday, poser Friday.
Emocore stuff was also later on and seen generally as a pop-poser spinoff of punk and metal culture. It got uniquely hated on by both mainstream and alternative cliques because of this.
I personally went through a pretty extended punk phase and never really got picked on. I actually made plenty of friends with jocks and stoners in high school, while wearing a pretty cringe getup with operation Ivy patches and shit.
I gravitated toward nu-metal/industrial with wide leg JNCO pants and ball-chain necklaces.
I haven't even heard of "emo" being an actual style until now. I thought it was just goth. Maybe because it's a couple years after my time. I'm an older millennial, graduated high school in 2000.
