The Dress-Over-Pants Style is Officially Back in Fashion
Hey girls, do you remember the dress-over-pants trend from the 2000s? Among the celebs, Miley Cyrus’ blue silk dress over jeans at the 2006 Teen Choice Awards and Anne Hathway’s pink dress over jeans at the Ella Enchanted movie premiere were something!
If it’s your favorite styling technique and you have been waiting for its resurgence, guess what? It’s back! Especially in social media, you will often find people coming up with cool 2024-ish ideas and looks! Of course, it’s crazy on the runways as well.
Okay now fashion enthusiasts might come up with, ‘’…but isn’t Katie Holmes already seen in the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball in a mini dress over jeans, back in December 2022?’’ Well, to answer you guys, yes, she was. However, this trend wasn’t as big as it’s this year.
The way Emily Ratajkowski embraced the dress-over-pants trend was definitely worth appreciating by many. The look she went for the Adwoa Aboah’s Gurls Talk fundraising gala was a major hit. It comprised a long-line halter-neck dress and tailored trousers (both in butter-soft silky material). For accessories, she chose a textured chain bag and strappy heels.
The 2.0 version is chic, subtle, and practically unrecognizable from its predecessor, and these are exactly all the reasons you need to try it out.
Listed below are some mind-boggling outfit ideas:
…and Jeans
Are you sick and tired of your puffed-sleeve dresses and the pale blue jeans? Breathe new life into them by styling them together! When combined, you get an ensemble that makes your mood bright and you happy. To take your look to the next level and very 2024, you can tie a varsity jacket around your shoulders.
With Boxy-Fit Cargo Pants
If you have been a fan of bold, daring looks always, you can pair a nice halter-neck dress with boxy-fit cargo pants (one that displays multiple large pockets). For accessories, go for snug-fit opera gloves and statement shoes. With this one, you will surely turn heads no matter where you go.
Keeping Things Neutral
Who said you can wear a slip dress only when it’s summer? You can wear it in winter as well, particularly when you go for the right colors! A floor-grazing, thigh-high slit creamy white slip dress with brown faux-leather pants will look too good. Of course, don’t forget to layer your dress with a beige turtleneck.
Creativity at Its Peak
If you are in the mood to go super bold (or experimental), consider a layering technique that is hailed ultra-daring by many. Go for a long shirt dress on top of shorts (on top of jeans). Yeah, you read that right. To make it work, stick to one color. And, if that’s red, it’s even better.
Monochrome Fun
Can anything be better than a monochromatic outfit? No. When you go matchy-matchy, it offers you an easy, effortless vibe. The black look (an off-shoulder top with straight-legged pants) is undoubtedly the sleekest but you can also go for a pink or green look. Suppose, a hot-pink dress over light-pink pants or a lime green shirt dress with soft-green leggings.
Over A Matching Set
Though you can go for this style all year round, it’s great for this winter. A dress over pants is in fact the ideal solution for chillier days when a pair of sheer tights just won’t do. To stay extra cozy when temperatures take a dip, play around with knitted pieces and matching sets. In addition, they add a different texture to your ensemble which uplifts it by forming dimension. You can take the top, pants, or dress off if it gets warmer later.
