Julia Roberts Has The Best Off-Screen '90s Style
Happy Birthday Julia Roberts! Today the movie icon turns 53 and a few years have passed since her iconic roles in films Notting Hill, Pretty Woman and My Best Friend's Wedding were screened, in iconic looks such as her in a baby blue cardigan set while uttering the words “I’m just a girl standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her,” in Notting Hill.
Off screen, the actress has modelled some pretty iconic looks during her 90s heyday. Minimal, casual and irreverent, her style is still unmistakable today. Ahead, we chart a selection of Julia Roberts' best fashion moments to be inspired from, and which we would gladly wear today.
In oversized blazer and cycling shorts, and her signature curly hair.
Vans sneakers, leather blazer, beret and Jackie bag ... is there anything more in trend than this?
So the first thing you might notice in this photo may not be her dress ... but let's take a look at this red dress by Bottega Veneta! Julia Roberts was doing it before it was cool: proudly show off her unshaved armpits, a beautiful, feminist gesture, which happened long before such collective awareness took place.
Maxi coats, sneakers, wool cap and round glasses: isn't that the way we dress for a walk or a quick errand?
Texans, ripped jeans, a masculine-cut shirt and a western belt ... that's right, we've seen something similar at the latest shows too!
Leather jacket and pants, boxy ankle boots and a sweater with transparent underwear. Bella Hadid could never.
Julia's super chic plunging neckline needs no further comment. And if we would like to wear it? The answer is a resounding yes.
Blazer, white t-shirt and boyfriend jeans - the perfect off-duty combo.
Here, she channels Annie Hall at the Golden Globes in 1990 in an oversized Giorgio Armani pantsuit.
Stripes on stripes - perhaps some of the best crop top looks ever?
The actress turned up at the Screen Actors Guild's Lifetime Achievement Award Salute in 1993 in a fashionably lavish velvet blazer.
If you don't already know, oversized blazers are a trademark look of Roberts. It's the perfect way to look put together and casual at the same time. Here, she pairs it with shorts for some sexy suiting.
