It seems Summer 2025 has found its pattern, and it’s straight from the vintage playbook. Most recently, it was none other than fan-favorite singer Olivia Rodrigo who joined the trend with a simple yet stylish outfit in New York City, while model Kaia Gerber also made headlines for a chic dress with the same pattern.
Meanwhile, Malia Obama was seen enjoying her European getaway with her sister Sasha Obama and her mom Michelle Obama. Malia was photographed sporting a black polka dot halter crop top with a mini skirt, showing off her toned abs.

Attending the premiere of Gonzo Girl, directed by Patricia Arquette, Kaia embraced a timeless retro print in a red halter-neck dress covered in tiny white polka dots, featuring a V-neckline and a flowing skirt channeling 1950s glamour with a modern twist.
