Bella Hadid Wore the '90s Dress Trend That's Going to Be Major This Summer

If you've been following Cannes Film Festival fashion, you've probably seen Bella Hadid stealing the show everywhere she goes. Since she arrived in Cannes, she's been photographed in everything from sheer dresses to string bikinis, leaving jaws dropped in every outfit. One of my favourite looks Hadid wore this week was one that she was spotted in at her hotel yesterday.
For the daytime occasion, Hadid wore a vintage Versace dress and vintage Chanel pumps. The yellow satin minidress stood out to me for many reasons (it's brilliant), the main one being that it was the perfect example of why a certain '90s dress trend is back. Halterneck dresses—especially fitted mini ones like Hadid's—have made a comeback just like every other great '90s trend has. Hadid proves how elegant a halter dress can be and how nicely it highlights your collarbone. If you're suddenly feeling inspired to add a halter dress to your wardrobe, keep scrolling to shop a few that'll give you that '90s look.
