Hervé Léger The Jade Dress ($375, originally $750)
The bodycon OG is back — not that it ever really left. But lately, it’s having a major moment again, spotted on It girls like Hailey Bieber and Kaia Gerber, who are proving its staying power. Hervé Léger, the brand that practically defined red carpet glamour in the ’90s and early 2000s, is leading the resurgence with new takes on its signature silhouette, like the Jade Dress. Made from the label’s signature stretch bandage knit, it smooths, sculpts, and hugs with a square neckline and midi length that oozes confidence. If you’re ready to make one your own, there’s no shortage of options on Amazon — from the classic black Jade Dress to the Rachel Dress ($695) that’s practically begging for a bride-to-be to make it hers.

Editor Quote: “All my insecurities about wearing a tight dress (most of which society imparts on us) melted away — and not just because I actually liked the way I looked. While the idea of a bandage dress feels nostalgic, I felt very much like current-day me trying on a new aesthetic. Rather than being intimidated by the cut of the iconic mini, I was inspired to create a personal look that incorporated my favorite accessories du jour. This is, in part, because the Hervé Léger dress is comfortable (more on that in a bit) and because its construct and very intention has evolved.” — Sarah Wasilak, shopping director
