Nostalgia has become a popular trend among celebrities as they embrace retro fashion. Iconic pieces from the past are making a comeback, with stars making bold statements by re-wearing gowns once worn by legendary icons. These fashion choices have sparked discussions about nostalgia and culture. For example, Blake Lively paid tribute to Britney Spears by wearing a vintage Versace dress previously donned by the singer in 2002. Sabrina Carpenter honored Madonna by wearing a sequined white gown originally seen on the singer at the Oscars in 1991. Halsey turned heads in a scarlet leopard-print Versace gown designed for Elizabeth Hurley in 1996. Sydney Sweeney opted to re-wear a Marc Bouwer gown first worn by Angelina Jolie in 2004. The mix of old and new styles has been both praised and criticized in the fashion world.One of the most memorable instances of recycling fashion was seen when Kim Kardashian attended the 2022 Met Gala. She made a bold and controversial statement by deciding to wear the very dress that Marilyn Monroe had worn while singing "Happy Birthday Mr. President" to John F. Kennedy in 1962.
