What goes around comes around. Every time I think a fashion trend has been buried for good, it ends up resurfacing at the most unexpected times. Case in point: high-low hemlines. Often paired with statement J.Crew necklaces, it's a trend that surged circa 2009. Fifteen years later, I'm suddenly interested in wearing it again thanks to Shailene Woodley.
Attending a red carpet event in New York City this week, Woodley wore a dress that was short in the front and long in the back. She finished the look with semi-sheer tights, black pumps, and pearl-drop earrings. Woodley pulled off the Y2K trend so well that it's making me question everything I thought I knew about high-low hemlines. Scroll down to see her newest outfit and shop modern versions of the throwback trend for yourself.
