16 Stars That Have Changed a Lot Since Their First Time on the Red Carpet

All of us change over time and our clothes also change under the influence of fashion and our own preferences. The appearance of celebrities doesn’t stay the same either and sometimes the transformations are so stunning that it can be pretty hard to recognize some famous people in photos from 5-10 years ago.

We at Bright Side have a hard time believing that these 16 celebrities looked like this at the start of their careers. Just look at the clothes they wore during their first appearances at red carpet events.

1. Blake Lively

This actress became famous after she participated in the series Gossip Girl from 2007 to 2012. But even before that, Blake was in several projects and was on the red carpet in 2005 wearing very trendy clothes for the time.

2. Margot Robbie

Robbie was born in Australia and became famous there. Obviously, she wore more bold and revealing dresses for different events. After she moved to the US in 2011, she became a world-famous star and changed her style.

3. Charlie Hunnam

This actor started his career in 1998 at the age of 18, having been discovered at 17, when he was seen in a shop and invited to star in movies. His first big success was the film Green Street in 2005. At the time, he didn’t have a beard, so it’s hard to recognize him.

4. Emma Stone

Emma Stone started her career acting in TV series and her first film, Superbad, was released in 2007. Stone wore this cute dress to the premiere. Over the years, her style has become more elegant, but her poses are still the same.

5. Scarlett Johansson

Scarlett Johansson first appeared in a film when she was a child, but her 2003 role in Lost in Translation was a turning point in her career. This is when big changes happened to her style and her clothes became more feminine.

6. Ariana Grande

This singer started her career on Broadway in the musical 13. She went on to find work in television as an actress on Nickelodeon, and in 2010, she got a part in Victorious. It wasn’t until 2 years later that she recorded her first track and in 2013, she released her first album. This is when she started to change her style.

7. Ryan Gosling

Ryan became an actor in his childhood when he appeared on The Mickey Mouse Club. Since then, he has been climbing the career ladder, but his breakthrough moment was in 2004 when he got a part in The Notebook. He’s changed quite a bit since then.

10. Gigi and Bella Hadid

In 2014, Gigi already had some experience in the modeling world and even appeared in shows during Fashion Week. At the time, 18-year-old Bella was making her first career steps and it’s kind of hard to recognize her in the photo.

11. Lady Gaga

The most scandalous singer of the last decade released her first album in 2008. And in 2009, she was already popular around the entire world. Today Lady Gaga is still edgy, but also more elegant.

12. Hugh Jackman

When he first portrayed Wolverine in 2000, he became famous around the world. After many years, it seems that he hasn’t aged much at all. It’s just that his suits and shirts have become a lot more elegant.

13. Kendall Jenner

This model started appearing on red carpets when she was a child, together with her famous family. But her independent career started in 2010 when 14-year-old Kendall signed her first contract. Her appearance hasn’t changed much, but her style is different now and she feels way more confident in front of the camera.

14. Miley Cyrus

Miley was born into a celebrity family and she took part in different TV projects when she was a child. She became successful at the age of 14 (in 2006) when Hannah Montana appeared on TV screens everywhere. At the time, she wore clothes that were appropriate for her age, but at the age of 20, she started to dress in a very edgy way. Now, it seems as if she’s calming down.

15. Lindsay Lohan

Kim Kardashian used to work as Paris Hilton’s assistant, accompanying her to different events. At the time, in 2006, she didn’t look like a fashion icon. But in 2007, Keeping Up with the Kardashians started and Kim started to create her own unique style in clothes.

Do you agree that these celebrities have improved their style or do you think that they lost some of fun they had with their wardrobe as teenagers?
