‘Legally Blonde’ prequel star Lexi Minetree borrows Reese Witherspoon’s 2001 premiere dress
Elle Woods never goes out of style.
Promoting the forthcoming “Legally Blonde” prequel, “Elle” actress Lexi Minetree slipped into a look straight from Reese Witherspoon herself.
In an appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” Minetree, 25, wore the fictional character’s signature color by way of a pink tulle look that Witherspoon wore to the film’s 2001 premiere.
Designed by Marc Jacobs, the dress featured a knee-length, mermaid hem silhouette and spaghetti strap top. The bright pink taffeta underneath is covered in a light and sheer black tulle for a bit of edge.
Witherspoon paired the look with matching lipstick, pulled her blond hair back into a bun and added strappy heels.
Though the young actress didn’t wear the exact same accessories as her predecessor did 25 years ago, she pulled straight from the early-aughts when it came to her styling, slipping into a pair of hot pink Steve Madden mules.
Though the actress was only three months old when the original film came out, she’s fully embodying the younger Woods for the Prime Video series “Elle,” which will premiere on July 1.
To land the role, Minetree joked that she went full Elle Woods for the producers. “I know what I have to do — I have to recreate her Harvard admissions video,” Minetree shared, adding that “my mom helped me film it.”
The show is set in 1995, beginning with Woods’ journey through high school. Witherspoon serves as one of the executive producers.
