At nearly every performance and press event surrounding the album, Gwen Stefani wore a triangle bikini top over a cropped tank. The look became so signature Stefani that Rosie Assoulin’s Spring 2016 iteration immediately drew parallels.

These days, the honor goes to Fendi, whose Spring 2016 offerings rivals the LV/Murakami ones in both size and cuteness.

Seemingly every celebrity owned a bright terry-cloth version, and some, like Madonna, even ventured to try out other track suits, like Adidas’s iconic style. This year, Chloé is among the brands helping the coordinating look make a comeback.
