Christina’s Style - 1999
We tend to forget that Christina was a stlyle maven from the beginnings of her career, testing boundaries while she was still just a genie in a bottle. And unlike some of her other former Disney co-horts, she wasn’t slutting it up quite as bad, and thus she got some bad press for her fashion and hair choices from the beginning.
I’ve been playing around in Wire Image, and came across some great photos from the second half of 1999 for us. It proves just how often (and how much) her style has changed over the last decade … crazy that her career has spanned that long, and people still question her place in the music scene.
She also loved her some skirts! I love that every time she went out, she had different hairstyles, and was playing with modeling her style after a certain idea, fashion icon, or theme.
She immediately started making some interesting style choices as this potentially mismatched Asian-patterned ensemble sugests.
This picture is the start of our journey. Here she’s young, blonde, and signing autographs in August at a NASCAR event!
ps … as a knitter and crocheter, this outfit makes me so happy! Her skirt thing? Not so much.
A rare moment in pants in October/November.
Ah, the VMA’s. This was the year Tommy Lee wore just a trench coat (she even posed with him for a few pics). By this time you could really see her daring fashion sense start to emerge, and I LOVE that coat and boots combo.
Best part about Christina? The very next day after the VMA’s she got all demure in this black dress for a gala event. She’s always known how to mold her look to the moment.
By the end of 1999, she was still rockin’ her Genie look, but with that shortie shirt and her hair already starting to rock out on it’s own, you can see she’s ready to expand her wardrobe and musical choices!
