The fashion world is witnessing the resurrection of the dress-over-pants trend.

The fashion world has seen the revival of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/y2k-revival-covid-19-pandemic-tiktok-gen-z-fashion-music-film-tv" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Y2K style</a> for quite some time now, ranging from <a href="https://preview.lofficielusa.com/fashion/2000s-trends-comeback-summer-2021" target="_blank" rel="noopener">mini skirts</a>&nbsp;to low-rise jeans to <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/bedazzled-y2k-trend-rhinestones-celebrity-style" target="_blank" rel="noopener">bedazzled anything</a>. Recently, one Y2K trend that is making a surprising comeback is the dress-over-pants trend. Often worn by Ashley Tisdale, <a href="https://preview.lofficielusa.com/fashion/miley-cyrus-style-evolution-plastic-hearts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Miley Cyrus</a>, and other celebrities in the early 2000s, the trend involves a dress, skirt, or tunic that is layered over a pair of pants, such as jeans or trousers.

While jeans were one of the main go-to pants in the early 2000s, designers are revamping this Y2K look with a more modern approach, including monochromatic ensembles and the use of wide-leg trousers. Was the trend an ingenious layering method all along, or will this styling trick remain a c<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/cringeworthy-fashion-trends-runway" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ringeworthy fashion trend</a> to look back on? Either way, we&rsquo;ll most likely be seeing the dress-over-pants trend on the streets next season. Here, L&rsquo;OFFICIEL rounds up looks from NYFW Spring/Summer 2022 that incorporate this classic Y2K style.
