20 Style Lessons We Learned Just by Looking at Lily Collins

She's a red carpet regular, style A-lister, and movie star, and there's nothing Lily Collins hasn't worn that doesn't capture our attention. As the daughter of singer and producer Phil Collins, Lily's undoubtedly well versed in the Hollywood lifestyle and this is where her style really shines. From what we've seen, the actress has never worn a bad outfit on the red carpet. Though she may have one heck of a stylist, Lily's also confidently carved out her own signature style.

The star always keeps her looks feminine and flirty whether she's in a Zuhair Murad ball gown or an Elie Saab lace dress. She pays attention to the cut, color, and silhouette of a look. (And seemingly knows how to strike the perfect pose.) We can all learn a style lesson or two from Lily, so read on to see what else the star has taught us.
