When it comes to the low-rise trend [1], there are no rules. A day after Julia Fox was spotted in the streets of New York wearing leather pants with possibly the lowest rise [2] ever seen, Teyana Taylor offered her own take on the polarizing look. Posing in the middle of a desert, the singer and dancer rocked cargo joggers with hip cutouts that dipped into her thighs. Taylor paired the affordable PrettyLittleThing pants [3] with an uber-cropped white tee, drawing attention to her incredibly-toned midsection. As her striking trousers made a statement, she kept her accessories simple with grey and white Nike sneakers, a bucket hat, and a necklace.
Though the daring silhouette has become somewhat of a signature look for the musician, her latest outfit reached a new extreme. At the Billboard Music Awards in May, Taylor wore a black Skims bra top with thin straps to complement her low-rise leather pants from Givenchy [4], exposing her thong strings. She also wore a notable pair of leather pants that skimmed her hips [5], with a crystal-encrusted chain belt at Rolling Loud last summer.
Despite some opposition [6], the early-aughts trend has continued to persist, with celebrities recently opting for riskier takes on the controversial cut. With a thigh-high slit and a belt hanging on the side, Keke Palmer wore one made out of suiting material [7] for the "Nope" world premiere just last week, while Halsey chose a sarong-like mesh version [8] to match their corset at the launch of their new beauty brand, af94.
