Hilary Duff's Shawl PTSD: Y2K Fashion Flashback!

Hilary Duff, a prominent figure of 2000s fashion, has spoken out about her style regrets, particularly her extensive use of shawls during the Lizzie McGuire period, describing it as a source of "PTSD." The actress and singer, who starred in the popular Disney Channel show from 2001 to 2004 and its related films, expressed a strong aversion to the repetitive fashion choice.

However, Duff has embraced the resurgence of certain Y2K trends in 2026. She specifically endorsed the comeback of low-rise jeans, though she prefers a looser, "baggy" fit over the skin-tight styles of her past. She also noted a general preference for "baggy" clothing and a desire to leave behind some of her more mismatched fashion decisions from earlier years, appreciating the current lack of pressure.

Duff's latest musical endeavors are also gaining traction. Her sixth studio album, "Luck... or Something," released in February after a decade-long hiatus, achieved her highest chart placement since 2007 by debuting at No. 3 on the Billboard 200. She is currently on "The Lucky Me Tour," with dates scheduled through early 2027, including stops in New Zealand, Australia, and Paris. Additionally, she is slated to perform on the Jingle Ball 2026 Tour in December.
