Twin actresses Tia and Tamera Mowry have been in the spotlight since their tween years. From shows like Sister, Sister and movies like Twitches and Seventeen Again, the twins have been style icons on and off the big screen. Their matching looks on the red carpet never felt too cheesy, especially as twins, they were able to put their personal twists on each look while simultaneously keeping their twin persona.

These looks from 2001 for the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, Tia and Tamera wore summer friendly outfits of one shoulder tops, straight leg jeans, and sleek gold and silver heels. They added dainty jewelry and chained belts that were very Y2K. These women have evolved so much over the last few decades in style as they’ve become mothers and progressed in their careers, but they’ve always had that spark in regard to fashion. Keep scrolling to recreate their Y2K-esque, summer night outfits, below.
