Love them or hate them, Capri pants are back this spring.

Just when fashion girls thought they had mourned the trends of the year 2000, <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/the-90-s-inspiration-is-everywhere" target="_blank" rel="noopener">capri pants</a> are making a triumphant return. Once relegated to the rank of fashion missteps, these short pants are now regaining their letters of nobility, to the great dismay of skeptics. Despite initial reluctance, it is undeniable that corsairs are making a remarkable entrance into contemporary style. With a fresh twist on the classic silhouettes favored by our <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/beauty/take-a-trip-down-memory-lane-with-these-90s-hairstyles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">1990s</a> icons, this return signals a fusion of nostalgia and modernity that is here to stay, at least for now.
Obviously, jeans and wide pants will always have a special place in our wardrobes. After all, they're arguably the most flattering and comfortable choice. But given how big they've become in recent years, it's no surprise that we've reached this point in the fashion cycle where we yearn to return to our skinny-pants roots. You may still be avoiding skinny jeans, but capri pants are the next frontier. Love them or hate them, they're back for good. The proof is with the most prominent celebrities and style icons who have worn capri pants over the years.

First of all, a look back at the history of capri pants. Introduced by German designer Sonja de Lennart in the late 1940s, this model gained popularity thanks to its practicality and chic, effortless aesthetic. And it was in Capri, Italy, that capri pants became a fashionable product. Quickly, it became an essential part of the wardrobes of fashion icons such as <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/audrey-hepburn-givenchy-little-black-dress-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Audrey Hepburn</a> and Grace Kelly, Princess of Monaco. Since then, the capri has undergone various reinterpretations, morphing from casual summer wear to red carpet-worthy statement piece, and everything in between.

Although their popularity has fluctuated over the years (like most fashion trends), capris resurface from time to time. Most often, they adapt perfectly to the stylistic landscape of the moment. However, they saw their greatest popularity in the early 2000s, gracing the wardrobes of fashion-forward celebrities such as Christina Aguilera , Fergie , Rihanna , Beyonc&eacute; and Mischa Barton , to name a few.

Despite their charm, many of today's It girls have tried to stifle the capri revival and prevent them from making a comeback like many other fashion trends of the year 2000 did. But these efforts proved futile, as evidenced by recent streetstyle ensembles sported by Julia Fox, Kendall Jenner, Alexa Chung, Bella and Gigi Hadid .
So whether you're a staunch supporter or a reluctant convert, it's time to embrace the resurgence of capri pants and discover how they can effortlessly upgrade your style.
