16 J.Lo and Ben Affleck Outfits That Went Viral Before Going Viral Was a Thing
No matter what you think about Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's recent reunion, there's no denying they were the definition of a power couple in their heyday. Gigli, their 2003 movie together, was universally panned (I'm talking 6% on Rotten Tomatoes), but their relationship was universally adored. They even started a nickname trend that continues to this day. In fact, we'd say Bennifer (Ben + Jennifer) walked so Kimye (Kim K + Kanye) could run.
In light of their reconciliation after 17 years, we decided to take a walk down memory lane and revisit their most iconic outfits during their relationship from 2002 to 2004. From red carpets to Juicy Couture sweats and everything in between, scroll down to look back at Bennifer's best looks.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
