Olivia Rodrigo Wore This Millennial Trend the Gen Z Way

By Swedan MargenJune 3, 2026

Millennials seem to be passing down style gems to Gen Zers, unbeknownst to them. The latest example of the “hipster” generation’s trends trickling down to the new wave of fashion connoisseurs comes via Olivia Rodrigo, wearing a trend millennials still love today. While gallivanting around London, Rodrigo was spotted wearing the trend that every fashion person, no matter the generation, loves: a graphic tee.

She wore her vintage pink Sex Pistols T-shirt the Gen Z way, styled with a black leather mini skirt and a pair of black leather knee-high boots. She accessorized with a simple black shoulder bag and a pair of sleek wraparound sunglasses, which many other Gen Z celebrities, such Kaia Gerber, have been choosing. Millennial celebrities like Jennifer Lawrence and style icon Alexa Chung have been styling graphic tees since their earlier stardom, but Rodrigo’s recent outing proves the trend is surpassing generational lines.
