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. Earlier this week, while out to lunch in Beverly Hills, Lopez opted for a dress trend that’s actually anything but trendy. The dress she opted for was 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 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 trend to your closet. So with that, keep scrolling to shop elegant fit-and-flare dresses for yourself.
