An outfit like this should wear a warning.

Halsey released the video for her new Britney Spears-inspired song, “Lucky,” on Friday — and along with sampling the track, the pop star also channels Spears’ famous crystal-covered “Toxic” look in the Y2K-themed clip.

The 29-year-old “Bad at Love” singer, who uses “she/they” pronouns, shimmers in a sheer catsuit strikingly similar to Spears’ in the video.

While Spears actually had crystals glued onto her skin in 2004’s “Toxic” video, Halsey wore a nude body stocking covered in strategically placed stones.

Bedazzled panties and diamond jewelry added even more shine.

The “Closer” singer wore their bright pink hair in a long, straight style pinned back with two era-appropriate hair clips.

Halsey also made plenty of other Y2K style references in the “Lucky” video — which samples Spears’ 2000 track of the same name — including a Gwen Stefani-inspired twisted updo and a denim micro-miniskirt teamed with an oversized belt.

Fans were loving the Spears references, like one who commented, “Halsey in her Britney era! I’m here for it!! The iconic Toxic Crystal bodysuit!!” on Halsey’s Instagram post Wednesday.

“Wait.., this is ICONIC! I just know this is going to be playing a great tribute to Brit. I hope she loves it too,” a second Instagram user wrote.

“The day I found out Britney never wore a body suit and just had gems glued to her body was the day my brain broke,” another fan added.

While Halsey’s been keeping a relatively low profile amid their recent health struggles — even sharing earlier this summer that they’re “lucky to be alive” — the star’s had a busy few weeks.

In late June, she attended the red carpet premiere of her movie “MaXXXine” in a show-stopping gold sequined Bronx and Banco look.

And earlier this month, they sparked engagement rumors by showing off a new sparkler on their left hand while picnicking with boyfriend Avan Jogia.
