Sabrina Carpenter is having the best year of her life career-wise. She is on her highly-anticipated Short N’ Sweet tour, she has sung with pop icon Christina Aguilera, and now she is on the cover of Time‘s latest issue. 2024 is shaping up to be a great year for her!

The 25-year-old “Espresso” singer was photographed by Charlotte Rutherford for the epic Time100 Next cover and editorial, which spotlights “the world’s most influential rising stars.” As per Time, “the Time100 Next list is an expansion of the flagship Time100 franchise that recognizes 100 emerging leaders from around the world who are shaping the future and defining the next generation of leadership.”

Carpenter was also interviewed by the “Genie in a Bottle” singer for the magazine; but the biggest talking point is undoubtedly courtesy of the front cover image, as fashionistas have taken a trip down memory lane and reminisced about where and when they have seen the outfit before…

Sabrina Carpenter Wears Naomi Campbell's Victoria's Secret Dress On 'Time' Cover

For the cover, the "Taste" singer can be seen striking a fierce pose wearing a vintage red and black bustier dress from the Victoria's Secret 1997 collection, first modeled by none other than Naomi Campbell. The dress consists of a sexy red bustier with a black heart in the middle and matching red briefs, as well as a dramatic floor-sweeping train.

As Sabrina's fans pointed out on Instagram, she wasn't even born when the 54-year-old iconic supermodel strutted her stuff down the Victoria's Secret runway in that sexy piece – and despite their height differences (Naomi is a statuesque 5'10, whereas Sabrina is a petite 5'0) both women rocked the piece spectacularly.

There was only one small difference in the styling, as Naomi styled hers with stockings, whereas Sabrina wore hers with sheer tights. Both ladies rocked voluminous hair and kept jewelry to a minimum to let the dress command all of the attention.

Fan Comments

Sabrina's fans flooded the comment sections of Instagram posts by Sabrina herself, Time magazine, and stylist Jared Ellner – and the overall consensus was that she absolutely slayed!

"One word: iconic," the official Victoria's Secret account wrote on stylist Jared Ellner's post. "The vintage references win every time! Looove this cover," wrote a second Instagram user, followed by three fire emojis. "Jaw is on the floor!" exclaimed a third, as a fourth fan said Sabrina "ate as always." "The dress is older than sab omg," noted a fifth fan.

"Everything about this is perfect," raved one fan on Sabrina's Instagram account. "This is iconic," praised a second, followed by the heart eyes, red heart, and hand praising emojis. "You look too good I can't handle this," gushed another fan, as another referenced how Sabrina and Naomi "both look amazing" in the Victoria's Secret dress. Can't argue with that!
