Olivia Wilde Just Re-Created Lorelai Gilmore's Most Iconic Outfit

I don't know about you, but I'm currently on the "Why did you drop out of Yale?" side of TikTok. If you know, you know. Every Gilmore Girls fan knows that watching reruns is the perfect way to celebrate the arrival of fall. Nobody nails sweater weather quite like Rory, after all. So it's no surprise that I immediately thought of Lorelai Gilmore when I saw Olivia Wilde's cute new outfit.

Comprised of a T-shirt, extra-short shorts, and cowboy boots, Wilde's outfit reminded me of what Lorelai wore in the pilot episode of Gilmore Girls. You know the one—when she's late dropping off Rory at Chilton and insists that she doesn't have anything else to wear because it's laundry day. She then proceeds to embarrass both Rory and Emily by walking the prestigious school's hallways in Daisy Duke shorts. As long as you're not rolling up to Chilton with your daughter, this outfit is actually on-trend and worth copying. Scroll down to see Olivia Wilde in the iconic Lorelai Gilmore outfit.

Associate Director, Fashion News

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
