Olivia Rodrigo’s love for Y2K fashion knows no bounds, and she has a special place in her heart for one detail in particular. Outfits inspired by butterflies became a staple of Rodrigo’s style over the years, and we’re bringing you some of her very best.  

Butterfly Top

Butterfly tops were a huge hit during the early 2000s—largely thanks to Mariah Carey—and Rodrigo is one of the Gen-Z celebs responsible for bringing this trend back.

Butterfly Hair Clips

Rodrigo is a huge fan of butterfly clips and she loves them so much that she even made them an essential part of her Versace outfit at the 2022 Met Gala.

Butterfly Jewelry

The “Drivers License” singer is a huge fan of butterfly jewelry, ranging from necklaces to earnings. She made quite a statement while attending the 2021 MTV VMAs, where her pink Versace dress ended up paling in comparison to her Aralda Vintage earrings.

Butterfly Mini-Dress

Even when butterflies are not a focal point of her outfits, Rodrigo tries to incorporate them in one way or another. This pink mini-dress with see-through butterfly embellishments is a case in point.

Butterfly Wings

Rodrigo also made butterflies a part of her stage outfits, and she was spotted wearing butterfly wings during live performances while touring with her debut album Sour.
