You'll Want to Turn Back Time to Admire All of Cher's Best Style Moments
Over the last four decades — yes, decades — Cher has starred in award-winning films, produced a plethora of uplifting I-am-woman-hear-me-roar ballads, and forged ahead of the style front to truly be one of a kind. Though the crooner's onstage presence is just as dazzling as her high-octane performance looks, it's her trendsetting off-duty style that has really captured our attention. From boyfriend blazers and leather miniskirts to sporty-chic separates and mom jeans (you know they're back, right?), it seems Cher is always a sartorial step ahead. Let's turn back time to celebrate Cher's most notable outfits, which even major modern influencer Kim Kardashian has committed to copying at the Met Gala, on Halloween, and at one of Cher's own concerts.
