In the nearly 20 years since Selena Gomez first hit our screens on Wizards of Waverly Place, we’ve watched her grow from a precious Disney kid into a multi-talented adult. While we’ve been along for the ride as she’s experimented with hair and makeup, it’s her evolving fashion sense that really marks her transition into adulthood.
Gomez was an early pioneer of the vest trend, mastering the art of layering from a young age. But as she stopped attending Disney movie premieres in favor of Teen Vogue’s Young Hollywood party and her first Emmys, Gomez traded in her skinny jeans for more formal dresses. She began to hit a groove in her late teens, developing a preference for metallics—wearing a silver sequined minidress to the 2009 American Music Awards and a floor-length champagne dress to the 2011 Grammys.
In recent years, coinciding with her various career successes—Rare Beauty, Only Murders in the Building, and Emilia Pérez, alike—Gomez has come into her own with her style. In 2024, she was particularly fond of dark colors, form-fitting silhouettes, and sparkly embellishments, outfitting herself in the likes of Schiaparelli and Rodarte. This year, on the awards circuit, she’s embraced Old Hollywood glamour, from her baby blue Prada for the Golden Globes to her Ralph Lauren Oscars dress, covered in 16,000 drops of glass.
Below, in honor of Selena Gomez’s 33rd birthday, chart her fashion evolution from 2008 til now.
