Rihanna Revives a 2000s Denim Mini-Skirt Classic

August 23, 2026Carlos Mendoza1 мин

In the ongoing debate about summer shorts, from the ultra-short to the extended denim "jorts," Rihanna offers a timeless choice: the denim mini-skirt.

The music and beauty mogul was recently spotted in New York City wearing a dark-wash denim mini-skirt by Meryll Rogge. The skirt featured exposed interior pockets and raw hems, evoking a retro feel. She styled this nostalgic piece with a vibrant candy pink Miu Miu track jacket, complete with a popped collar—a hallmark of early 2000s fashion. Her favorite Amina Muaddi snakeskin strappy sandals added another layer of signature style, as Rihanna consistently incorporates animal prints into her outfits, whether for casual outings or red carpet events. Her accessories included a classic gold choker, gold and diamond earrings, and rose-tinted aviator sunglasses.

Rihanna's makeup and hair mirrored her signature look: voluminous curls, a striking blood-red manicure, a white pedicure, and a glossy brown lip.

The denim mini-skirt is experiencing a subtle yet significant resurgence. This trend has roots in the "indie sleaze" era, when brands like Diesel, Miss Sixty, FCUK, and Cheap Monday popularized similar styles. More recently, designer Jonathan Anderson featured the denim mini in his debut womenswear collection for Dior, and it was notably worn by Jenna Ortega, who paired it with an era-appropriate military jacket-vest.
