Classic 80s look

Demi got her start in 1981 while working for General Hospital, and one of the earliest photos of her from that time shows her keeping things simple in a low key look incredibly fitting for the time. As she attended the Carousel Ball Benefiting the Children's Diabetes Foundation, she wore a classic formal gown for that time, with puffed sleeves and a pleated long skirt.

Retro soap opera star

In headshots for General Hospital, Demi looked like a soap opera queen with perfectly blow dried, big 80s hair with bouncing bangs and strong eye makeup. She paired the look with a simple white turtleneck for the ultimate casual look.

Prom queen dream

Arguably, Demi became a household name when she was named as a member of the Brat Pack while filming St. Elmo's Fire. In one iconic moment, Demi's character Jules dons an incredible pink strapless dress complete with a thick string of pearls and a pair of black long sleeved gloves — a look fit for a prom queen.

Androgynous crop

As Demi started getting taken more seriously in her career as an actress, she shocked many by cutting her hair uber short around the time she had her first daughter Rumer. Keeping the strong bangs, Demi's new crop accentuated her striking features.

Bold and bald

For G.I. Jane, Demi sported a completely shaven look in an epic part of the Ridley Scott film, a look which certainly gained attention.

Serious bob

In the late 90s, the actress was clearly growing out her hair following years of wearing a pixie cut. She opted for a short bob that skimmed her jaw, often opting for dark clothes for a serious look.

Long wavy tresses

It didn't take long for Demi to return to her long dark hair look, as she began wearing her hair around her shoulders. She wore iconic 90s looks, including a see-through black shirt paired with a pair of black pants for a sultry look.

Noughties queen

After her marriage ended with Bruce Willis, Demi entered the noughties in a relationship with Ashton Kutcher - and her sense of style similarly skewed to fit in with the era. From boho neutral dresses to shift dresses, Demi always managed to look chic.
