Brooke Shields Breaks Down 12 Looks From 1978 to Now | Life in Looks | Vogue

hello folk it's Brooke Shields I am going to take you through some of the most iconic looks that I have had over the years I hope you're ready first one oh yes I was 12 years old at this time and it was right after pretty baby and right before I did a movie called tilt and after pretty baby my hair was so destroyed by the way they tried they had to fuzz my hair up every day and the night that we wrapped I chopped all my hair off and this was my Frye boot era I did not skateboard very well but I liked carrying it around and pretending that I could and I was about ready to go into seventh grade which was terrifying to me next just look at those dance moves hmm this is a studio 54 photo I am wearing a very high waisted pinstriped you can't see the suspenders but I was wearing suspenders they might be a fancy pump I'm not sure if they're a Chanel pump and I'm sure if they are I borrowed them from my mom because we had the same size shoe I was 14 when I was dancing at Studio 54 as one does I used to love whatever Warhol was there cuz whenever Andy was there because were on a first-name basis he always had his little camera and so I always knew he was gonna take fun funny pictures and he never looked through the lens he just would take pictures like this and every now and then I would glance to the VIP section and there would be somebody famous Bianca Jagger or Baryshnikov or supermodel and and it wouldn't be enough to get me off the dance floor I gotta be honest all I wanted to do was dance ah okay this was for surprised the jewelry this is for each Stern the idea was that after pretty baby they labeled me the Million Dollar Baby try to live through that in high school so they put jewels all through my hair and around my forehead I was 16 so I was going to high school we just drove in from the city I had the appearance to do it was over really quickly and I took him off and went back to where I lived in Jersey and had no work to do I wasn't living the life that this person looks like they're living ah yes Blue Lagoon not a lot of clothes there the costumes on this in particular were actually crafted they were really beautifully crafted because they were taken from vintage pieces that they had to make look worn so a lot of them were just taped on my body or draped and then sewn on my body to look like they had been the only clothes that I had had and you can also if you look closely she's all bronze and even and every day at 4 a.m. I had to stand in this little wooden hut and they had to take big sponges of body die dye my whole body to make it look like I had been there over 10 years ah okay this was for the premier of endless love I had never worn my hair back like this this was a skirt and little top and it was just it was a real party outfit in my mind I could still dance in it which was really important and I wear my mom's earrings which I still have actually I was just really proud of this movie in this moment and I loved this look and I got to sit next to Elizabeth Taylor and ha Vogue I've done and I remember thinking that this was the heaviest piece of jewelry I had ever put on my neck this is sort of when Paloma Picasso for me was really just didn't introduced as this extraordinary designer who was crossing jewelry with art it was sort of the firt one of the first times I had ever really become cognizant of that it was that very extraordinary thing where you did this whole amount of prep and then you went behind these big heavy metal doors and then I was just you and avid on he would blast music from me he blasted Diana Ross you just sat at the table with the reflector and it was like you were in your own little bubble and he always had a really good lunch from this Chinese restaurant oh very proud moment of mine this was my slick hair dark dark red lip big hoops lots of crop tops I really can't show this to my daughter then I won't be able to tell her she can't wear them this is what the premier of death becomes her I was a huge fan of Meryl Streep's this was in the off chance I was going to get to meet her I thought she'd like this outfit ah this is a very happy picture for me I was extremely proud this was Richard Tyler he made this dress for me for the Golden Globes for my nomination the next day I got brought into the agency's office and she read me the riot act about how I really should have consulted her first about wearing red it was just just an absolute outrage that my lips matched my dress and I remember being paraded in her office and then walking away thinking how ironic I felt really good about what I was laughing and then the irony continues because the next year everybody warm and Trailblazer pave the road haha ok a little mist up here so this was clearly post the red dress because this is the SAG Awards 99 so instead of going glamorous and what I thought fabulous I clearly went choir girl meets mich graduation gown something and clearly this signified serious actress to me so oh I feel bad for her another happy moment Annie Leibovitz took this picture of me pregnant we had worked all day long and we were gonna do this beautiful swimming photo underwater for some reason I don't think she was just really happy with with whether she got it or not and I came out of the out of the tank and I just stood there and she stopped and said we have to take this picture it was hard being the second person to be photographed pregnant because Demi had done it prior and she had that whole unbelievable tuxedo looks it was like impossible to can rival that I was just so happy I was gonna be on the cover of Vogue and pregnant huh okay a couple years ago Zac Posen designed this extraordinary address for me to wear at the Met Gala I was so happy it had pockets even though I didn't put anything in the pockets and I just felt I felt really regal and beautiful and inappropriate the theme was passion you know the Catholic and the whole thing that really rich blue really did touch upon the theme we get to do whole fittings and everything it was really it was sort of glamour the way most people think it is um this actually felt like that I wanted it to look really gorgeous and and Zac was just so lovely and he it got me a rope and he made me this little evening purse and I felt like a real star four days ago this isn't MoMA they were honoring Laura Dern I think the biggest change in my style from the then to the now is that I don't wear something if I don't love it and feel good in it it took a while for me to sort of get confident in having an opinion in that past era I would say the red dress is my favorite I felt my best I felt glamorous I was nominated so I was proud of my work that would be my favorite look from then these last two are definitely my favorite favorite looks now because this is who I am thank you so much [Music]

Wow, is she stunning or what? I think the lagoon photoshoot picture is absolutely divine. It captures her essence so well!

I love the style she had in the dance shot! The blue velvet also looks spiffy with her hair in soft waves.

The blazer look in the video is nice, maybe because of the looser hair, but that very D suit in the last photo makes her look a lot like Caitlyn Jenner. The softer, more Natural looks from earlier definitely suit her better. She was an incredibly beautiful young woman and she still looks utterly incredible though!!
