Sabrina Carpenter often wears '90s-inspired slip dresses and chunky boots, but she took her love of the decade one step further for a recent Instagram post, wearing a sheer aqua slip that walked the runway before she was even born.

The dress makes an appearance in a new photo dump, with Sabrina Carpenter posing next to a poster from the movie Eye of the Evil Dead. Her turquoise dress is pretty similar to that of the woman on said poster, and Carpenter cutely mimics her pose.

However, Carpenter's dress isn't from a movie set but rather an archival Victoria's Secret slip from 1997. It was worn on the runway by model Ingrid Seynhaeve during the brand's '97 fashion show and features embroidered cups and trim paired with sheer aqua fabric.

Underneath, Carpenter wore what looks to be the exact same style of underwear as Seynhaeve did more than two decades ago. The dress is also older than Carpenter herself. She was born in May 1999, so the slip has two whole years on her!

Elsewhere in the carousel, we see Carpenter posing in what appears to be a convertible filled with water (a.k.a. a carpool, LOL) and a pair of extremely high white platform heels with ankle straps, plus a snapshot of her now-infamous Coachella 2024 billboard. (She's performing at the festival this year.) "Can't sleeeep," she captioned the post.

You may not be able to purchase Carpenter's vintage Victoria's Secret slip directly, but the good news is that there are tons of similar secondhand slips on resale sites like Poshmark and Depop, given the brand's long-running popularity. If it's the color you're into, try their Satin Draped Pearl Strap Open-Back Slip in "Aquarius Blue," which is a similar turquoise tone. Hello, perfect Coachella outfit!
