Here’s something we never thought we’d write – Avril Lavigne dominated the style game at this year’s Paris Fashion Week. Whilst the punk rocker isn’t typically associated with luxury fashion events, Lavigne is proving to us once again that she isn’t afraid to experiment when it comes to her ever-eclectic wardrobe.
Between February 27 and March 7, the noughties-era Canadian pop icon turned heads at events for a string of top brands, from Courrèges, Christian Louboutin and Elie Saab, to Yohji Yamamoto and Stella McCartney.
And before the long week of shows came to an end, the “Girlfriend” singer broke the internet when she and Kylie Jenner’s ex Tyga, seemingly confirmed their relationship with a great big smooch – and plenty of PDA – at the Mugler x Hunter Schafer party on Monday.
It must be love at first sight – Lavigne only broke off her engagement to Mod Sun just months before. Clearly, her bold, daring fashion style is reflective of her personality.
So with all eyes on the style maverick who lives up to her “Anything But Ordinary” song title, let’s look back at how Miss Lavigne went from punk princess to a luxury fashion queen ...
Skater chick
When Lavigne, now 38, released her debut studio album Let Go in 2002, fans fell in love with her gothic, bad girl vibe and apparently effortless ability to channel teenage angst into redemptive pop-punk music. Songs like “I’m with You”, “Complicated” and “Things I’ll Never Say” became instant hits and at just 17 years old, it was clear that she was destined for a path of stardom.
Forget dresses during this era though. Ever the tomboy, Lavigne’s ensembles, on red carpets and in music videos, would often consist of cropped tanks, baggy trousers, fingerless gloves, and the like.
Pink princess
By the time Lavigne released her third album, 2007’s The Best Damn Thing, she replaced her chestnut-brown hair with a pink and blonde overhaul.
