Sydney Sweeney Totally Brought Back Leg Warmers During Paris Fashion Week, And I’m Shocked At How Great It Looks With Her Miniskirt

The best Smart DNS for watching movies abroad.

The Noughties are coming around again thanks to Kim Kardashian and other celebrities, which means I probably shouldn’t have been surprised when leg warmers made their way to Paris Fashion Week. Yet, here I am, staring at Sydney Sweeney’s cool Miu Miu outfit with my mouth agape. She paired the look with leg warmers, and I’m honestly shocked at how spectacular the whole thing looks.

No shot at Ms. Sweeney, of course, who has already proven this year she can flit from a totally confectionary mini dress at a party with Paris Hilton to an all-white furry look perfect for a snowball fight. But Fashion Week is already looking ahead at Fall, and apparently that means short skirts and leg warmers with less casual outfits are going to be all the rage. Take a look at what the actress wore, courtesy of her partnership with Miu Miu.

Sweeney paired a black bubble miniskirt with a boxy, button-up jacket, a crop top, and the aforementioned grey leg warmers. She paired her outfit with accessories including pointy heels, shades, and a rectangular bag from Miu Miu known as the Beau bag.

Her skirt is also pricey and decidedly low-rise, a second Noughties trend I’m less enthusiastic about. However, there are plenty of similar black bubble skirts around too in tons of different silhouettes.

The brown and black look with a little grey mixed in is also a color combination you don’t see all that often, but was perfect for a Fall/Winter 2025 show.

This is not my first leg warmer rodeo. When I was a kid, they were the types of things ladies in Spandex wore during workouts, or ballerinas wore for warm-ups. This actually isn’t the first time leg warmers have made a comeback either, as in the early aughts, girls wore them over boots and shoes as a sort of daywear look. Every single time they make a brief comeback, I feel like we get to the point where we collectively agree there’s no point in wearing a sock with no toe coverage, but apparently this is a lesson we’re forced to learn and relearn every 15 years or so.

Meanwhile, leg warmers have already made a comeback in stores and come at varying price points (and seemingly for varying activities).

There’s no denying Sydney Sweeney does look cute in her heel and leg warmer combo. It’s a take we haven’t seen in a while and she inexplicably has managed to make it her own. I’m not saying the leg warmer will be the biggest revelation from fashion week (As sequins on celebs like Rosie Huntington-Whitely have been splashy and more), but if I know how much celebrity fashion loves to accessorize, I’d be shocked if this isn’t the look that pans out to the masses far more widely in the coming months. As long as it’s not crocs with socks making a comeback, I’m OK with it.

New on Netflix.
