I have started a project for converting the LibreOffice Writer and Calc experiences to as close to the Microsoft Office 95 experience as I could. You can contribute to the project on gitlab: https://gitlab.com/bgstack15/libreoffice-chicago95-iconset. Some instructions from the README:

To assemble the `images_chicago95.zip` file and also the .oxt file, manually inspect and run build.sh.

    ./build.sh

To place the iconset in the public location for a 64-bit Linux distro:

    sudo cp -p Chicago95-theme/iconsets/images_chicago95.zip /usr/lib64/libreoffice/share/config/

The OOTB (out-of-the-box) experience is now complete, but there are way more buttons to finish. Some of these buttons are hand-drawn, because a modern office suite does a lot more than Office 95 ever did. Contributions are welcome!
