Few women can boast the title of ‘style icon’; but Jennifer Lopez is definitely one of them. Throughout her successful career, the Latina megastar has worn countless stunning outfits - many of which defy the laws of physics with their bold silhouettes - to premieres, red carpets and awards shows. Through the evolution of her style, JLo has always been on par with the latest fashion trends, and maintained the perfect balance of sex appeal and elegance.

 

Sparkling on her first red carpet walk

Her first major role in Hollywood was in the Selena biopic. For the film’s premiere, she looked impeccable in this white halter neck dress, speckled with hundreds of silver sequins - which contrasted perfectly with her midnight blue shawl.

90s mermaid

The mermaid silhouette accentuates feminine figures in a subtle way and this is something the actress learned from the beginning. For this red carpet she opted for an embroidered Badgley Mischka dress, and following the fashion trends of the 90s, she paired it with a choker and a popular hairstyle of that time: half up and pin-straight.

Unexpected combinations

Taking risks is key to elevate your style and Jen has been doing it since the start of her career. One example is the outfit she wore to the MTV Movie Awards 1998: a long leather skirt and a shiny, silver crop-top -  an original mix for sure.
