Jennifer Lopez Fashion Transformation - I
Posted On Monday, February 2, 2009 at at 2:25 PM by Maverick
J.Lo was still new on the Hollywood scene when she wore this neutral-colored, slinky gown to the 'Money Train' premiere in 1995, and she filled the fresh-faced-starlet role perfectly with this classic look.
In 1997, Jennifer, known as La Guitarra (the guitar) for her curvy shape, had a lot to smile about at the premiere of 'Anaconda.' In addition to starring alongside Ice Cube in the infamous thriller, Ms. Lopez also had her star-making turn in 'Selena' that year. All she needed was to add some color and flair to that flesh-toned lace top
The floor-length leather skirt? The shrunken metallic top? The mini barrettes? Clearly, this look hasn't stood the test of time, but Jen was killin' it at the MTV Movie Awards in 1998.
Jennifer went to great lengths at 2000's MTV Video Music Awards to prove that she really, truly was "Jenny from the Block." Was the look a success? While her boyfriend at the time, who was none other than Puff Daddy, might have liked looking at his girl's sexy abs, this getup screams "trying too hard."
From television dancer to actress to platinum-selling recording artist to... style icon? The rising star threw caution and modesty to the wind at the 2000 Grammys when she decided to wear a barely-there Versace number that has gone down in infamy. The shock-and-awe tactic worked -- J.Lo was a bigger star the morning after those Grammy Awards than she was before them.
What a difference a year makes! Lopez went from busting out all over in 2000 to demure elegance in 2001. But things are never that subdued when J.Lo is involved. The Puerto Rican beauty caused a stir with this seemingly simple dress when it turned out to be sheer on top! Lopez also stunned -- less scandalously -- with her feathered false eyelashes. Sheer bodice or not, this was a gorgeous, mature look.
