Kristen Stewart has found her style stride over the past few years. We’ve seen the star go from her more romantic Twilight years to full-on lead actor status, doing everything from action comedies like the forthcoming Charlie’s Angels reboot to dark, thrilling films like Personal Shopper. She’s come into her own as an actor and left her Bella Swan days behind, and we couldn’t be more excited about what’s to come from one of our longtime faves.
Kristen’s style has changed along with the roles she has chosen, too; the actor is a big fan of trousers and pantsuits, and she rocks them on the red carpet with panache and sophistication, reminiscent of legendary Hollywood stars Katharine Hepburn and Marlene Dietrich. She beautifully blurs masculine and feminine elements in her personal style, choosing simple suits with unexpected details like chains or sequins, often rocking them sans a shirt or bra underneath but always pairing them with her cropped, slicked-back hair and go-to smoky eyes. She loves to go full on Chanel in its iconic tweeds and boucle fabrics; Chanel is one of Kristen’s favorite clothing lines, and she brings a modern vibe to the classic fashion house’s timeless jackets and suits. Everything she wears is edgy and elegant at the same time, and that tomboyish glamour has become Kristen’s signature look.
We’ve rounded up some of her best suit moments ever, so find your inspiration within and channel your inner Kristen in a pantsuit this fall.
October 2019Kristen rocked a peekaboo lace bra and a few silver chains under her fitted black suit for a Seberg premiere in California.
October 2019Kristen went monochromatic with her burgundy suit and matching maroon lip and eyeshadow. We love the unexpected white cuffs of the suit jacket and the fact that she only buttoned the top button.
| September 2019Kristen’s navy suit was anything but basic, embellished with an intricate rope detailing on the shoulders and thigh. It’s a little naughty and a little nautical, all at the same time.
| May 2019For the Met Gala, Kristen changed it up and went camp with neon orange hair, bleached brows, and platform shoes with a black sequined top and wide-leg white trousers.
| April 2019Black suit? Check. Smoky eye? Check. Combat boots? Check. This look is the encapsulation of Kristen’s glam tomboy style, and it’s perfect.
| May 2018Her all-white Cannes look could have been worn in 1940, 1960, or 1980, and it looks just as fresh and elegant today.
| May 2018Kristen rocked a super cute baby blue tweed suit with a simple scoop-neck white tee and strappy white heels for an appearance during Cannes.
| December 2017Nobody wears Chanel quite like Kristen. The star hit up a Chanel event wearing the coolest white Chanel pants, a white crop tank, and a classic black tuxedo blazer.
| July 2016Never underestimate the power of a bright white suit. Kristen’s look from 2016 is absolute sartorial perfection, down to her white and black loafers. You could wear this anywhere, at any time, and it would always look great.
