"Throughout the 2000s, It girls like the Olsen twins constantly sauntered down red carpets in lacy, flowy dresses, while pop culture icons on The O.C. and Gossip Girl layered vests and Obi belts over delicate ruffled pieces. But then the Chloé girl aesthetic dwindled in the 2010s in favor of sharp lines and sneakers."
"It wasn't until 2024, when Chemena Kamali took over the French fashion house and reignited the industry's love for the vibe - one that Olivia Rodrigo, Kylie Jenner, and more of today's top style icons quickly embraced. Kendall Jenner even fronted a campaign that reintroduced the Paddington, aka the label's most iconic Y2K-era It bag."
"What no one realized is that the carefree style's resurgence was missing one key element: clogs, one of the most notorious "ugly" shoe trends. But all of that is in the past now, because Bella Hadid just said they're cool again."
"She wore a butter yellow flowy minidress with an empire waist, white lace trims, and massive wing-like sleeves. She looked utterly ethereal, especially in the light. Her outfit's pièces de résistance were her wooden stompers: brown heeled clogs with a buckle on each foot. This gold-studded pair is a sleek update on the OG Dutch classics."
Chloé’s romantic, free-spirited look became prominent in the 2000s through lacy, flowy dresses and layered styling, then shifted in the 2010s toward sharper lines and sneakers. In 2024, Chemena Kamali took over the French fashion house and revived the carefree vibe, which style icons quickly adopted, including a campaign that brought back the Paddington Y2K-era bag. The resurgence initially lacked clogs, a widely criticized “ugly” shoe trend. Bella Hadid later embraced clogs publicly, wearing brown heeled, buckle-detailed wooden clogs with a butter yellow empire-waist minidress featuring lace trims and wing-like sleeves. The styling emphasizes contrast between soft fabrics and rigid, hardware-forward footwear.
