A quarter-century after Reese Witherspoon first wore a hot pink Marc Jacobs gown to a Hollywood premiere, a 25-year-old actress who was barely born at that moment slipped into the very same dress on late-night television — a deliberate act of inheritance. Lexi Minetree, who plays a young Elle Woods in the upcoming Prime Video prequel series, appeared on The Tonight Show this week in a garment that has become something close to a cultural artifact. It is a reminder that certain characters, like certain dresses, resist the passage of time by becoming larger than the moment that created them.
