14 Red Carpet Outfits That Became New Fashion Trends

Almost all red carpet outfits become the subject of vivid discussions. So it’s no wonder why celebrities try to get dressed in something really eye-catching to steal the spotlight. But the stars mentioned in this article managed to not only attract everyone’s attention but actually bring fashion to a new level.

Cher as Cleopatra

At a Halloween party, Cher appeared wearing Cleopatra’s gorgeous costume. It consisted of a translucent top studded with crystals and a spectacular headdress of an impressive size. It was pretty bold for 1988.

Gillian Anderson’s backless dress

Gillian Anderson’s evening gown was bold, even for the 2000s. And the thong peeking out from under the dress looked daring and edgy.

Madonna’s bullet bra

The singer has been a style icon for many years. And in the early 1990s, she appeared on stage wearing a bullet bra, which later became iconic. It’s no wonder why modern singers try to copy Madonna’s outfits and style.

Diane Keaton’s suit

Even before men’s suits became a new fashion trend among women, Diane Keaton appeared at the Academy Awards sporting one. In 2004, it seemed quite out of place, but later, this style became iconic.

Kim Kardashian’s clear, thigh-high heels

In 2016, the famous socialite appeared sporting clear boots, which became a topic of discussion all over the world. And soon enough, clear shoes became a new fashion trend.

Kanye West’s ripped jeans

The rapper’s behavior and outfits can be outrageous at times. For example, his new line of clothes caused a stir in the fashion world. Kaney West even appeared wearing ripped jeans at a Met Gala event, which was quite risky at the time. But the funny thing is that ripped jeans soon returned to popularity, perhaps due to West’s influence.

Jennifer Lopez’s denim boots

The Internet exploded after the singer flaunted these unusual boots. Users even started joking that her “pants were falling off,” and the boots immediately became a meme.

Lady Gaga’s oversized suit

The singer’s huge suit impressed everyone. And when she discovered the real idea for this outfit, she attracted even more attention from the international media. It turned out that Lady Gaga wanted to emphasize the importance of women in Hollywood.

Beyoncé’s halo

At the 2017 Annual Grammy Awards, the singer appeared in a very provocative outfit — a sparkling golden dress and a headdress that resembled a halo. The dress was inspired by Gustav Klimt’s paintings and the lyrics of Beyoncé’s song, Love Drought. And the sun rays on her headdress referred to Oshun, the African goddess of divinity, femininity, fertility, beauty, and love.

Victoria Beckham’s split-front trousers

In 2018, Victoria introduced her new clothing line, featuring split-front trousers. And she was the first to wear them. And in less than 24 hours, these trousers became a fashion trend.

Julia Roberts’ outfit that included pants and a dress

In 2019, Julia Roberts reminded everyone that pants can be a full-fledged evening gown, especially if they are combined with a dress. Soon, this combination was picked up by fashion designers.

Emily Ratajkowski’s open-belly outfit

The model has been popularizing open-belly outfits in recent years. She was also the one who made the “ab-crack” a new trend. At the 2020 Vanity Fair Oscar party, Emily Ratajkowski sported an open-belly gown, as usual, and this outfit has become one of her most recognizable looks.

Rihanna’s revealing tank top

In 2022, Rihanna appeared on the pages of many magazines after she created a new maternity style. The star emphasized her pregnancy with different revealing outfits, like this one made from sparkling threads.

Adriana Lima’s open-belly dress

Rihanna is not the only celebrity who wore revealing outfits while pregnant. Supermodel Adriana Lima demonstrated her bare baby bump to the entire world. And her bold black dress by Balmain became one of the most memorable looks of the 2022 Cannes Film Festival.

At first, these bold outfits were considered almost outrageous by the public. But some time later, they appeared on the racks of clothing stores, and everyone started wearing them. Which of these outfits would you wear yourself?
