Christina Ricci’s Style Evolution Through the Years

First up is Ricci at a screening of Mermaids in a fringed suede coat, dark green velvet dress, and shiny patent leather ballet flats. The young actress, who played Kate in the film, was only 10 years old at the time.

Shortly after, she styled those same patent leather ballet flats with another velvet ensemble for the premiere of Mermaids. This time, she rocked a long-sleeve, royal blue velvet dress with lace leggings.

For the Beverly Hills premiere of The Addams Family, Ricci wore a dark floral printed dress with black tights and flats.

The Hollywood actress attended the Motion Picture Club Installation and Awards Luncheon in New York City in a silky two-piece set. Her bright neon-yellow lug sole boots and dainty choker necklace were unexpected touches.

Ricci paired a turquoise top with a floor-length fuchsia skirt for the Now and Then premiere. She accessorized the colorful look with a thin purple belt.

Ricci kept it relaxed and casual in a black ensemble at the Birdcage premiere in New York City. Her pale yellow suede jacket gave the dark outfit just the right amount of contrast.

For the Los Angeles premiere of The Opposite Sex, Ricci decided on a pair of flame-printed leggings accessorized with metallic gold platform sandals and a black mesh-trimmed top.

Next, she opted for an embroidered turquoise midi dress with a square neckline and ruched bodice. Her signature gold heels matched the outfit perfectly.

Ricci walked the 1999 Golden Globes red carpet in a dress fit for a princess. The look included a dazzling skintight dress paired with a fabulous stole. Her slicked-back hair and minimal jewelry allowed the gown to shine.

She wore another sparkly look at the 1999 Academy Awards. The silver ensemble featured a sequined criss-cross pattern, a wide neckline, and a floor-grazing hem. Her simple parted hairstyle, light pink lip, and diamond necklace were all nice touches.

Ricci switched out her usual floor-length gowns with a flowy mini dress for the 1999 Met Gala. She paired the strappy bright blue piece with matching light blue platform sandals

The asymmetrical neckline, the black and white color palette, the pulled-back hair gave Ricci the look of Wednesday Addams all grown up.

The actress decided on a frilly frock for the 2001 MTV Movie Awards. She paired the dress, which featured a patterned mesh overlay and a mock neckline, with simple gold hoop earrings and heels.

For the MTV Europe Movie Awards, she posed in a beaded tube top and a low-rise maxi skirt. The outfit was the embodiment of Y2K dressing.

Ricci’s outfit at the 2002 Cannes Film Festival included an easy-to-wear piece, a ruffled black top. She unexpectedly styled the eye-catching blouse with light-wash denim jeans and a beaded necklace.

She strutted down the red carpet for the Anything Else premiere in a magnificent sheer number. The lace look was reminiscent of some of her earlier dark-hued outfits.

This classic black number screamed old Hollywood. Just look at the asymmetrical neckline, gathered waist, and long pleated skirt.

Ricci paired this ruffled hem gown with an unexpected detail: a short furry shrug.

Ricci embraced another translucent look at a charity event, wearing a flowy gown with a structured bodice, empire waist, and floor-grazing chiffon overlay.

How sweet is this angelic powder blue gown? Featuring a plunging neckline, ruched bodice, and ruffled hemline, this dress made Ricci look ethereal that evening.
