Alicia Keys Has Been Wearing This One Trend for 20 Years

What goes around comes around. Early 2000s fashion might seem cringey to some, but certain trends from the era of MTV TRL are coming back with a vengeance. Alicia Keys, for one, is all about one very '00s look: crop top matching sets. I noticed she wears a ton of them on her Instagram, so I set out to see how long she's been a fan of the look. I stumbled on an amazing picture of Keys in 2001 in an embroidered crop top and matching pants—and I couldn't keep it to myself.

Nowadays, her matching sets range from a sultry leather look for a music video to breezy summer sets for family time. Scroll down to see several different ways Alicia Keys has worn matching crop top sets over the years and shop the trend for yourself.
