Tonight, Bella Hadid had the honor of opening the 2026 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, but her runway looks won’t be the only thing people are talking about on Monday morning. (Although I won’t soon forget her cute, colorful bra.) After she hung up her angel wings for the night, she changed into a lace mini dress for the VS after-parties in Los Angeles. The high neckline, long sleeves, and scalloped hem are strikingly similar to the Dolce & Gabbana dress Britney Spears wore to the 2001 VMAs.
While Spears paired her sheer dress with low-rise boy shorts, Hadid opted for a skimpy thong. She also swapped Spears’s very Y2K embellished sandals for a pair of polished pointy-toe pumps. Scroll down to see how Hadid’s 2026 look compares to what the Princess of Pop wore on the red carpet at the MTV Video Music Awards 25 years ago.
