If there’s anyone you can count on to come up with an unconventional outfit pairing, it’s Billie Eilish. The “What Was I Made For?” singer has mastered the art of dressing strictly for herself, regardless of public opinion, and her latest look is no exception. On September 4, she took to Instagram with another one of her signature photo dumps in her edgiest ensemble to date. As she posed slightly bent over in front of a plain studio backdrop, Eilish wore a white mesh top with a frayed hem, black fishnet tights layered under micro camouflage briefs, black-and-white knee pads, sporty socks, and platform-heeled sneakers. Throughout the dump, she continued to show off her love for all things nostalgic, from vintage Nike jerseys and red-and-black ‘90s frames to oversize men’s button-downs and ties.
While some of these nostalgic trends have recently resurfaced in the fashion world, the 21-year-old has embraced them for most of her career. As an undeniable queen of Y2K fashion, she recently wore an oversize jersey and completely sheer biker shorts layered over her go-to fishnet tights while performing at the Sziget Festival in Budapest, Hungary, last month. Eilish wore a similarly layered combo that featured a “Miss Sexy” baby tee and tiny camouflage shorts while showing off her dragon tattoo. She also nailed the polarizing aesthetic on other occasions, choosing an oversize pinstripe shirt and baggy trousers for the star-packed “Barbie” premiere and a vintage Spice Girls shirt, leggings, and Moon Boots for a gym day in Los Angeles.

As ’90s-grunge as her boundary-pushing style veers, Eilish is not afraid to tap into other decades. For her contribution to the “Barbie” movie soundtrack, she transformed into a ’50s doll while wearing a modest yellow shirtdress and Mary Jane pumps to match. She also channeled the “soft girl” trend with a ruched dress by Yuhan Wang for a quiet Easter celebration with then-boyfriend Jesse Rutherford.
