Share post:


Though her acting gigs are fewer and far between these days, Gwyneth Paltrow will also be remembered firstly as an A-plus actress, thanks to her starring roles in films like Shakespeare in Love and Emma. Of course, acting is hardly the only thing on her resume and these days, Paltrow is just as busy with her thriving business, Goop, as she is with keeping up her celebrity.

One thing hasn’t changed, though, and that’s Paltrow’s style influence, which she’s had a tight grip on since she came on the scene 30 years ago. From her slip dresses in the ’90s, her easy glamour in the ’00s, and her embrace of quiet luxury today, Paltrow has always been at the forefront of fashion. Her standout style moments were going “viral” before “viral” was even a thing. When she isn’t serving looks in court, she’s taken to the red carpet in everything from dramatic sheer gowns to inconspicuous, chic knits. Below, take a trip down memory lane in honor of Gwyneth Paltrow’s red carpet style—from her iconic pink Ralph Lauren Oscar dress and red velvet Tom Ford for Gucci suit.
