No wonder Dove Cameron has such a unique sense of style! The Disney starlet recently designed her own sunglasses line with Privé Revaux in November 2019, but she also revealed that her goal was always to design clothing because it’s in her blood. “My parents were actually jewelry and import designers,” she told Life & Style exclusively in November. “So, I have always had a great passion for design.”
While the 24-year-old is a fashion icon herself, she does look to other celebrities for inspiration as well. “My style icon will always and forever — even though it’s not always reflected in the way I personally dress — Winona Ryder,” she admitted. “I live and die by Winona Ryder.” So, what exactly does Dove admire about the 48-year-old actress? “It’s more of what she wore when she was in her Beetlejuice era — back in the day,” she said. “She wore this really beautiful, white dress, but the thing is — she was such a tomboy. I don’t know, her whole aesthetic was just so intelligent and so her but also, like, jeans with her leather jacket and her T-shirts and her red lipstick and the bare eye and the short tomboy cut. She is such a badass, I love her.”
On days where the Washington native isn’t getting dolled up for an event, you can find her in a simple outfit. “If I could wear jeans and a white distressed shirt and a leather jacket every day, I probably would — with a bold red lip or something like that,” she continued. “But my go-to that I usually realistically do is a long, vintage sundress, like a button-up down to my ankles and then massive men’s docks and a messy bun and big sunglasses.”
Not only has Dove’s roles in television and film evolved over the years but so has her ~looks.~ “I have always been much more masculine and punky than I think people think I am,” she explained. “But now that I am getting older, and I am really embracing that because I am starting to actually speak up and be like, ‘Hey, I don’t like this,’ or ‘Hey, I would really rather wear this.’ I think when I was younger, I was like, ‘Oh, I don’t know, put whatever you want on me.’ Now that I am older, I am wearing what I like and presently myself how I like.” We love it!
