Emily Ratajkowski may be known for her seductive style (see: all the NSFW bikinis she donned in Monaco recently, her sheer red-carpet ensembles, and her nip-baring Met Gala outfit), but every so often, the New York Times best-selling author throws on a more laidback outfit. This time, she did just that while taking one of summer 2024’s most controversial trends for a spin.
On Monday, Ratajkowski arrived on set to film her cameo in Lena Dunham’s new Netflix series, Too Much, wearing a pair of extra-long shorts that felt nothing like the sort of butt-grazing style one might expect from Emrata. The entire outfit — which was basically the epitome of Pinterest’s “Eclectic Grandpa” aesthetic— felt admittedly out of character for Emrata, but she somehow made it all her own.
According to Vogue, the point of the trend is to dress like someone who has had years of experience curating their style — no matter how outlandish it seems to others. And though Ratajkowski’s typical outfits feel nothing like what a grandpa would wear, her general approach to style feels right in line with this ethos… and so does her latest outfit.
