So Nostalgic
My Roman Empire.
Back in the 90s, however, only the most daring of style stars dared traverse translucent ground.
One such icon, who was always ahead of her time, was Britney Spears.
Her appearance at the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards, however, changed that.
Spears wore a long, fur-trimmed cardiganthat swept the floor.
Despite having yards and yards of fabric, the garment was utterly see-through.
She hooked one button and left the rest of the gauzy garment open, fully exposing her belly button.
She merchandised the all-black look with low-rise trousers (because 90s) and sandals encrusted with crystals.
She rocked frosted,baby blue eyeshadowwith black eyeliner and dusted her entire face with shimmering bronzer.
Oops!…
Im talking about the barely-there masterpiece: her glistening Toxic bodysuit.
Spears has always had a spicy streak.
That 1999 look, however, was her gateway.
