Charli xcx’s red carpet style has one major factor in common with her genre-bending music: range. There was the singer’s punk era circa the mid-2010s, her futuristic Pop 2 moment shortly after, and her Brat phase that soundtracked summer 2024.
Throughout it all, the singer has mastered the art of statement fashion on the big stage, cozying up to some of fashion’s most exciting and avant-garde labels like Marni, JW Anderson, Vivienne Westwood, and Loewe. Charli has always been a fan of form-fitting gowns on the red carpet, often accented with some sort of unexpected accessory or bold beauty moment. But despite her preference for body-con looks, she also isn’t afraid to mix in matching separates or tailoring from time to time. Below, a look back at Charli xcx’s best red carpet moments, from True Romance to Brat.
