If you were a Friends fan, chances are that you wanted to be (and dress like) Rachel Green. Jennifer Aniston made a convincing case for capri pants, slinky slip dresses and preppy miniskirts in the series in the ’90s and ’00s, and she loved a talking-point shoe.
The final episode aired in 2004, but the legacy of Rachel’s wardrobe lives on. Just look at contemporary super Bella Hadid, who this week channelled everyone’s favourite waitress in a knee-length silky skirt, green camisole top, and a controversial pair of stacked platform flip-flops. The retro mood didn’t stop there: Bella added layered string necklaces with stone pendants.
Of course, Bella has been known to wear capri pants too, and those flatform flip-flops (they’re by brand of the moment, Coperni), are fast becoming key to her summer wardrobe. By teaming them with an A-line skirt and vest top, Bella evoked Rachel in her hair extensions era.
Coperni’s wedges have become a cult item among the It-girls. Alexa Demie, Kendall Jenner, Dua Lipa and Nicola Peltz have all worn the retro flip-flops with chunky heel. Whether you’re on board with the Noughties revival or not, fashion flip-flops are a solid summer purchase. If you’re here for the comeback, embrace your inner Rachel and get on board with flatforms. If you’re not a fan of a wilfully ugly shoe, then The Row’s Ginza sandals are a Vogue editor favourite.Read more at:black formal dresses | evening wear perth
