While skirts are making waves in menswear fashion on the runway, the MsftsRep brand owner has been embracing the garment in his street style since at least 2016, when he also notably wore a fringed skirt for a Louis Vuitton women’s ad campaign.

Willow, who was on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” with Rosalía earlier on Monday, opted for a custom Dior Haute Couture oversize structured black tuxedo jacket, paired with sheer black leggings for a sleek yet edgy look. Completing her ensemble, she chose pointed black patent leather stilettos and adorned her fingers with statement sculptural gold rings.

Both siblings showcased their distinctive lock hairstyles. Jaden sported his signature grown-out dreads with bangs falling just at eye level, while Willow styled her hair in an updo, secured and accented like a crown with a black headscarf.
