Think Valentino when it comes to Anne Hathaway’s style. The Brooklyn-born actress has been a muse of the Italian designer since the beginning of her career, and she can often be found by his side at events, whether she’s dressed in strapless scarlet for the Oscars or snow-white for Natalia Vodianova’s White Fairy Tale Ball. When he was inducted into the Rodeo Drive Style Walk of Fame, Hathaway was even his date.
That isn’t to say that Hathaway isn’t willing to take chances. You’re just as likely to see her in a canary yellow Prada prom dress as you are in an asymmetric Vivienne Westwood or a Salvatore Ferragamo leather midi skirt, just like her wide range of character roles.
Her style evolution has been as steady as her ascent to the dizzy heights of being named the face of Lancome in 2008, being photographed by Mario Testino for the cover of US Vogue in 2010, and co-hosting the Academy Awards in 2011.
For her charisma, her iconic pixie crop, and her ability to laugh at herself, the actress has garnered admirers all over the world.
