Kristen Stewart has grown up on the red carpet, making her earliest premiere appearances all the way back in 2002. With this continued rise to superstardom has come a complete style evolution. Although Kristen has always understood the power of glam, she’s truly come into her own, working with a team of expert stylists to create a look that’s wholly her own.

The star that once donned a Dunkin’ Donuts tee to Sundance is now a fashion innovator. Some of her most major moments included plenty of sheer looks, a suit with shorts to the 2022 Oscars, and a collection of Chanel that’s always stunning. The Oscar-nominated actor continues to experiment and impress with her wardrobe, and ahead, you can chronicle her complete style evolution.
