This stylish dress and shoe combination from the '90s is making a comeback this summer.

      There's no reason to reinvent the wheel when it comes to summer attire. My best suggestion is to draw inspiration from the style icons of the '90s, as Dakota Fanning has evidently done. Attending a premiere in Los Angeles, the actress opted for a timeless satin slip dress suitable for a summer evening. The dress, which gently followed her shape, had a relaxed, effortless feel reminiscent of the '90s aesthetic.

      Embracing the minimalist style of the decade, Dakota matched her ankle-length dress with a shoe trend that easily could have come from 1991. Instead of opting for ballet flats or traditional slingback heels, she chose a pair of white heeled flip-flops, achieving a chic, nostalgic vibe with minimal effort.

      To complete her look, the actress added a long satin jacket over the dress and accessorized with sleek black sunglasses. Keeping the outfit streamlined and simple was a hallmark of '90s fashion, which is why many of the era's key styles remain relevant today. If your wardrobe could use a touch of '90s-inspired elegance, keep scrolling to discover the slip dresses and heeled flip-flops I'm currently loving.
