It’s no secret that Olivia Rodrigo may be the biggest White Stripes stan there is. As a teenager, she ran a fan site for the band and had “Jack White’s biggest fan” in her Instagram bio. That devotion has continued even as Rodrigo has become one of music’s biggest pop stars: she since befriended Jack White, helped induct The White Stripes into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame last year, and name-drops the band in pretty much every interview she gives.

Case in point: In a new Q&A with The Hollywood Reporter, Rodrigo revealed that ahead of her inaugural Daisy Chains Field festival, she purchased the vintage white Gunne Sax prairie-style dress Meg White wore on the cover of The White Stripes’ Elephant. (Per Variety, the dress recently sold at Julien’s Auctions for $25,600.)
Rodrigo ultimately decided against wearing the dress at Daisy Chains because it was too hot outside, but she’s holding onto it for a future occasion. “Maybe if I do Daisy Chain in the winter, I can wear it,” she told Variety.
Rodrigo recently launched “The Unraveled Tour” in support of her brilliant third album, you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love. Jack White is also on the road at present, touring behind his own new album, Frozen Charlotte.
