7 Trend-Proof Items Models Have Always Worn

Models have always been some of the world's most stylish beings. It makes sense, given that they're always surrounded by the latest designs and trends. They're privy to what's to come in fashion before anyone else and they work closely with designers and stylists, and it shows. 

It was the '90s when supermodels really became superstars, and started influencing how everyone dressed. With the prominence of Instagram and street style, that's become even more of the case in recent years, and it's hard to ignore the similarities among the trends that It girls of today like Kaia Gerber and Elsa Hosk wear compared to It girls of the past, like Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss. We just studied tons of outfits worn by models now and then and spotted 7 classic trends that have stood the test of time. See how they wore them over the span of time and shop them for your own wardrobe below.

Sure plain white T-shirts will always be the most popular style, but graphic tees, especially logo and concert ones have proven to have longevity over the decades, and wearing one is an easy way to add some personality while staying comfortable.

On Tyra Banks: Calvin Klein T-shirt
On Kendall Jenner: Each x Other Amanda Wall Charity Collaboration Tokyo T-Shirt ($99); Staud Tommy Bag ($250)

Denim trends quickly come and go, but straight-leg jeans are always cool and safe. The most model-off-duty way to wear them is with a white top and flats.

WHO: Amber Valletta
On Emily Ratajkowski: Orseund Iris Le Club Top ($330); Nike Cortez Sneakers ($70)

Models spend a lot of time in heels for work, so it's not surprising that they want to give their feet a break sometimes, and their #1 shoe style to do that with (after sneakers, of course) is loafers.

On Cindy Crawford: Gucci loafers
WHO: Adwoa Aboah

Without fail, every spring and summer brands put tons of new floral-print midi dresses on the market because they're wildly popular, year after year. Just look at how pretty these models look in them, decades apart.

WHO: Helena Christensen
WHO: Elsa Hosk

Yes, cardigans are certainly a trend now, but if you think about it, when were they ever not chic or not cool? They're safe, classic, and versatile, no matter the year.

WHO: Christy Turlington
On Bella Hadid: HVN cardigan; O-Might top; Ralph Lauren bag; I.Am.Gia pants; Maison Margiela sneakers

Leather moto jackets and bomber jackets are great, but they don't come close to providing the sophisticated polish that leather blazers do, even to something ultra casual like Kaia Gerber's jeans and sneakers.

WHO: Naomi Campbell
On Kaia Gerber: Nour Hammour jacket; Saint Laurent Monogram All Over Canvas Satchel Bag ($1790); Converse Chuck Taylor High Top Sneakers ($55)

Models have an uncanny ability to dress suits up and down, proving their versatility. This probably has a lot to do with why this outfit trend has such longevity. We love the way Kate Moss and Gigi Hadid style theirs.

On Gigi Hadid: Berluti trench, suit, and sneakers; Jacquemus Black Le Chiquito Clutch ($495)
On Kate Moss: Adidas sneakers
Shop the matching Loose Tapered Linen Blend Trousers ($129).

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
