Anne Hathaway rocks the ‘Teeniest Little’ shorts and oversize button-up in the No-Pants trend

Anne Hathaway’s wardrobe is reaching new heights, as are her shorts’ hemlines.

On Wednesday, the 41-year-old Oscar winner attended a screening of her new film Eileen in New York City, sporting her version of the burgeoning no-pants trend, which has already been worn by Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Julia Fox, and a bevy of Bravolebrities at this year’s Bravocon.

In a recent Instagram post by her stylist Erin Walsh, Hathaway appeared to be wearing a red Valentino button-up shirt over tiny shorts, giving the impression that the top was also a dress.

“On Wednesdays, we don’t wear pants. To be fair, @maisonvalentino and @pppiccioli did make the tiniest teeniest tiny trousers, which are now hidden here, but you get the  point.”Walsh described the outfit.

Hathaway completed her look with black over-the-knee Proenza Schouler boots and jewelry from Bulgari, as well as Effy Jewelry, both of which were tagged in the photo.

The actress has gained fresh fashion prominence in recent years, thanks in part to Walsh’s talent and in part to her own daring sense of style.

Her comeback has included denim-on-denim, Barbiecore, and plenty of Versace, including the glittering mint green argyle gown she wore to the 2023 Albies in September (Claudia Schiffer debuted the number during Versace’s Spring ’24 show).

She’s even tried on clothing that her Devil Wears Prada character Andy Sachs would approve of (see: her Michael Kors New York Fashion Week ‘fit, which Hathaway said was an “accident” but was nevertheless a historic moment).

So, what prompted the mother of two to go off at full speed in her forties?

“At this moment, everybody’s taking risks, and I feel like there’s more than one way to do it right now, which means that you don’t have to hit a mark; you just have to be yourself—and that feels wonderful,” she said in a recent interview with people.

“Erin and I both believe that style is an expression, and I trust her, so I feel like I can be more daring.” We’re not taking it too seriously. This isn’t a rehearsed scene; it’s real life. I was given a lot of things at an early age that I didn’t always know how to appreciate. I didn’t know how to enjoy what I was wearing since I felt horrible about myself in certain situations. Now I’m wearing things I like and wearing them gladly, and it appears to be working.”
