Skirts Over Pants Are the Latest Y2K Revival Trend
Everyone's least favorite 2000s fashion trend is back: skirts over pants are the latest Y2K trend taking over.
The latest 2000s trend to be revived is the dreaded skirts over pants. It was only a matter of time, with maximalism and layering becoming a staple of 2020s fashion, before we would come full circle to this divisive trend. Check out how celebrities and runways have styled this Y2K essential.
Bella Hadid and Dua Lipa are often regarded as the trendsetters of today. Both are unapologetic in expressing their love for early 2000s trends. But while they're just dipping their toes into the murky waters of dresses over pants, It girls of the naughties, such as Ashley Tisdale and Britney Spears were layering up almost any chance they got.
Unlike the casual nature of most Y2K trends, skirts over pants can easily be made formal for a walk down the red carpet. Whether it's a sleek and tailored look like Rebecca Hall, a fun and glittery moment like DeWanda Wise, or a viral Internet trend like Macarena Achaga, the possibilities are endless. The 2000s celebrities, however, seemed to stick to jeans under their dresses.
If you're hoping to see more of this 2000s trend, you're in luck because the Fall/Winter 2022 runways were filled with it. From New York to Paris, skirts and dresses over pants were a major trend for the season.
