Megan Fox’s Style Evolution Proves She Was Always A Red Carpet Favorite

She especially loves a platform heel.

Megan Fox may be one to watch right now for her fashion moments and her relationship with one MGK, but the actress, known for her cult classic film Jennifer’s Body and Transformers film franchise, has been a red carpet style star since the early 2000s. Of course, her looks have evolved over the decades, from early-aughts trends, like mini skirts, skinny jeans, and layered bangles to today’s hottest designers, like Mugler, who has dressed Fox for a slew of major events through 2021. (Let’s not forget her super-sheer and embellished gown from the 2021 MTV VMAs.)

But throughout her style evolution, including short hiatus from the red carpet between 2014 and 2019, there are a few mainstays for Fox’s aesthetic, like a good platform heel, a high-slit detail, and plenty of cutouts. It proves that not only has she been a fashion favorite since the start of her Hollywood career, but she remains true to her own personal style sense no matter where she is.
