Though it might not feel like it right now, winter is coming to a close and you’re going to have to start thinking about your spring wardrobe soon enough. Thankfully, the girlies at Copenhagen Fashion Week have come up with a genius, albeit a little lazy, fashion solution: adding a pair of jeans or jorts underneath your summer dress.
This combination is nothing new, Katie Holmes gave everyone quite the fright rocking the combination back in 2022, while everyone from Ashley Tisdale to Sienna Miller had this ensemble on repeat during the Y2K years.
Like the distant rumble of leggings under dresses coming back, we understand the pairing might be a little triggering for the millennials and gen X-ers among us, but don’t be intimidated to try the trend again with these easy steps.
A mini dress with a free or empire waist is your most failsafe bet when it comes to trying the ensemble for yourself, while a midi or maxi dress works, a nightie or prairie-style mini contrasts well with denim. Plus, this is the way you can extend the life of your much-loved summer dresses. It’s also a great way to wear your fanciest pieces in a more casual setting; Cecilie Bahnsen and Molly Goddard dresses do well over some worn out, vintage Levi’s.
Speaking of denim, opting for a straight-leg style is wise; skinny jeans are going to take your straight back to the Indie Sleaze years, while baggy jeans might add too much volume. The style stars of Copenhagen Fashion Week largely wore the look with flip flops, but ballet flats and trainers with a slim profile would also work well.
