If there was one Y2K development I assumed would by no means see the sunshine of day once more, it is in all probability the bubble skirt. Kylie Jenner simply proved me fallacious.
On June 8, the 26-year-old business mogul shared a collection of trip snaps in a low-rise white mini skirt that includes a real bubble hemline, which she paired with an identical white bralette tied behind her again with a bow. “Wishin i was still hereee ☀️,” she captioned the pics, tagging her trend model, Khy.
Whereas the bubble hem was popularized within the ‘80s, it took on new life in 2005 thanks to red carpet moments from the likes of Paris Hilton, Mischa Barton, and other Y2K It-Girls. And although bubble skirts were certainly popular amongst Hollister shoppers around that time, a mid-length bubble dress was truly the moment—and I’m not simply saying that as a result of I wore a purple bubble gown to promenade.
Almost twenty years later, what's previous is new once more. Vogue even gave millennials honest warning in Might, writing that “bubble girl style is here." The cloud-like silhouette has been cropping up throughout runways and funky, area of interest influencer feeds for months, which means it was solely a matter of time earlier than it was embraced extra broadly.
