Back in 2001, Britney Spears wearing a pair of tiny hot pink bikini bottoms atop low-slung, metallic green flares felt revolutionary. The pop star's outfit in the sweaty, sexy music video for "I'm a Slave 4 U" sent shock waves through pop culture.
As with all things Y2K, the exposed thong is once again back in fashion. But in the modern iteration of this 2000s style, instead of just showing off the straps, celebrities have been stepping out with their underwear completely visible. The trend started bubbling up at Saint Laurent's spring 2023 show, where a third of the looks consisted of sheer or semi-sheer dresses worn with just a pair of briefs underneath. The influence of Miu Miu's last few collections can also be felt, especially fall 2023, when the brand presciently sent Emma Corrin down the runway in a pair of fully bedazzled hot pants.
