When you're Jennifer Lopez and have the fashion world at your fingertips, you can wear whatever you want, so I'm always intrigued by the trends she chooses. I also like that one day she might be wearing sweatpants, the next day something red carpet–worthy, and the next something she could feasibly wear to The White House. While out to lunch in Beverly Hills recently, Lopez opted for a fit-and-flare style, which has been more popular than ever lately—likely because it's elegant, flattering, and quite versatile.
Fit-and-flare dresses began their resurgence last year, and the trend shows no signs of slowing down. Lopez opted for a dark gray Dior shirtdress that, true to style, cinched in at the waist and flared out at the skirt. With elegance still being the overarching theme in fashion this season, I don't think you'll regret adding this silhouette to your closet. So with that, keep scrolling to shop some examples of fit-and-flare dresses for yourself.
