From her breakout roles in “The Princess Diaries” and “Ella Enchanted” to her recent performances in “Armageddon Time” and “WeCrashed,” Anne Hathaway has embarked on quite the impressive style transformation, today positioning herself as a connoisseur of all things glamour on the red carpet. With Bulgari and Versace campaigns under her belt and a taste for other high-end luxury labels such as Valentino, Ralph Lauren, and Armani, she is now expected to make a sartorial statement at any event she attends. Hathaway, 40, works with stylist Erin Walsh on her outfits, which have recently taken on an edgier tone thanks to touches of patent leather, shorter hemlines, and even ornamental embellishments like sequins or the beaded hood she wore to Bulgari’s high-jewelry event in Venice, Italy.
Most recently, Hathaway stepped out at the The Albies, hosted by the Clooney Foundation, at the New York Public Library in New York City, sporting a slinky green Versace dress straight off the runway. Six days prior, iconic supermodel Claudia Schiffer closed the spring 2024 runway show in Milan wearing the exact same piece. The star accessorized with plenty of silver Bulgari jewelry, playing up the shimmering metallic checkers on her slip, as well as her chain-link top-handle purse. She slipped into ornate bow heels and wore her long brown hair teased at the crown of her head in a half-up, half-down style.
Ahead, catch a glimpse of Hathaway’s recent appearance, then go back in time and admire how her looks have indicated a markedly different aesthetic through the years.
