Hello, Y2K throwback.
It appears high-low dresses are back, that is, if Selena Gomez has anything to say about it. The controversial garment—that was essentially a ghost of early 2000s homecomings, proms, and sweet 16s past—made its way onto the red carpet last night with the multi-hyphenate as its champion. While she pulled the trend straight out of the early aughts, she made sure to give it a modern shakeup and her usual sultry flair.
The Emilia Pérez star made a captivating arrival at her second Annual Rare Impact Fund Benefit in Los Angeles in a little black dress that was anything but typical. Her frock featured a one-shoulder design, a fitted bodice, draped details throughout, a figure-hugging miniskirt, and a second, side-swept skirt that trailed behind her. The train was long in the back and short in the front—a quirky, divisive, love-it-or-hate-it detail that dominated Y2K fashion. She let the dress do most of the talking, pairing it with black, glossy, pointed-toe stilettos with an asymmetrical strap and two diamond-encrusted statement rings.
As for beauty, the "Calm Down" singer opted for soft glam, complete with rosy cheeks, winged eyeliner, and a natural-pink lip. She styled her chestnut-colored bob in loose waves with a middle part.
The Rare Beauty founder's latest red carpet streak has been full of LBDs. Earlier this week, she stepped out at the Los Angeles premiere of Emilia Pérez in an edgy version of the sartorial classic. Then, her gown featured a voluminous, off-the-shoulder construction, crossover bodice, sweeping train, and cool leather opera gloves. Before then, she attended the BAFTA preview of her new film in a black mididress that featured structural, cutout straps, a plunging V-neckline, and a pleated skirt.
