Sabrina Carpenter is no doubt a superstar. She’s an incredible actress, with many Gen Zers growing up watching her work on Disney Channel and beyond. If you’re an OG fan like me, you’ve also been listening to her music since then, jamming to Eyes Wide Open and all of her singles and albums to follow. Carpenter’s newest album, emails i can’t send, may be her most iconic era yet. Not only has she blown up on the charts with hit songs like “because i liked a boy,” “Nonsense,” and “Feather,” but she also opened up for Taylor Swift on The Eras Tour.
From 2021 until now, Carpenter has had some incredible fashion moments. She went to her first Met Gala in 2022, has graced the cover of multiple magazines, and attended many major fashion shows. Since then, Carpenter dropped singles of her song “Feather” and a special cover of Swift’s “I Knew You Were Trouble.” She also dropped the music video for “Feather” on Halloween. The EICS era could be coming to an end soon, so there’s no better time than now to take a walk down memory lane and look at some of Carpenter’s best looks from the emails i can’t send era.
- The “Fast Times” Music Video
-
Choosing just one look from the “Fast Times” music video is hard. These are some of Carpenter’s best looks, in my opinion. The bodysuit and pink corset outfits are both stunning, but the red outfit matches the era perfectly with the cutout heart. It’s the perfect popstar music video look, and Carpenter killed it.
- 2022 met gala
-
Carpenter went all out for her first Met Gala in 2022. She wore a gorgeous gold custom Paco Rabanne two-piece ensemble for the Gilded Glamour theme. She shined like a star, and was definitely one of the best dressed of the night.
- 2022 Cannes Film Festival
-

This is one of my all-time favorite looks Carpenter has ever worn. The white gown has huge cutouts with bows, and I think it’s elegant while still being fun and flirty.
- The “because i liked a boy” Music Video
-
The “because i liked a boy” music video kickstarted the EICS era. There are also many great looks in this music video, but the red look is hands-down my favorite. The bodysuit, velvet wrap skirt, gloves, and giant snake necklace were a hot take on old Hollywood glamour.
- 2022 MTV VMAs
-

- Valentino Fashion Show
-
Being a fashion It Girl, of course, Carpenter wears many great designers. In Venice last year, she wore a full pink Valentino outfit. The mini dress and platform heels were the perfect look for the pop star.
- EICS NYC Show
-
Carpenter looked amazing on the EICS Tour, but her Webster Hall New York show was special. She wore a custom Paco Rabanne silver two-piece set and her go-to platform knee-high boots. Her wet hairstyle really makes this look complete.
- 2022 AMAs
-
Carpenter took it literally when Rihanna said, “Shine bright like a diamond.” The singer sparkled like never before in this Oscar de la Renta look. It was truly fit for a star.
- Giambattista Valli Show
-
Paris Fashion Week is a huge deal. So, of course, Carpenter grabbed some huge, sparkly platforms and paired them with a Giambattista Valli pink ensemble. It was the start of her Barbie era.
- Barbie Party Look
-
Speaking of Barbie, this two-piece pink set belongs in Barbie’s Malibu Dream House. She rocked this at the Spotify Best New Artist party at the beginning of the year. She has to be in the next Barbie movie, right?
- Grammy Party Look
-

- Loyal London Look
-
Carpenter looks stunning in photo shoots and on red carpets, but she also has a great street style. This red outfit she wore in London is proof. It’s girly, with the rosette on the skirt and bows in her hair, but also very fitting, with red being the main color of this era.
- Women In Music Look
-
A black-and-white look will always be iconic. At the Women In Music event in March 2023, Carpenter wore a Cong Tri set. The tuxedo-style mini skirt with the long train was a fun take on a classic look.
- EICS Tour Pink Look
-
This Barbie went on tour. I love this crystal pink dress and platform boots. It’s a nod to her single “Feather” with the pink feathers, and just a fun stage outfit.
- Blumarine Blue Look
-
Styled by Jared Ellner, this Blumarine gown is gorgeous on Carpenter. It’s simple and stylish. I love the red and pink looks, but blue might be her color.
- Lollapalooza Look
-
Pink, hearts, mini skirts, and platform boots are all now a part of a staple look for Carpenter. She rocked this pink set with a heart top and metallic mini-skirt onstage at the music festival in August 2023. It’s giving Barbiecore and Elle Woods. Playing Lollapalooza, what, like it’s hard?
- The Eras Tour
-
She’s in her Cinderella era. Carpenter truly looked like a princess in this custom Frolov look. Opening for Taylor Swift on The Eras Tour was the cherry on top of the epic EICS era.
- Schiaparelli Show
-
Meredith Blake, is that you? I can’t talk about Carpenter’s iconic looks without mentioning this Schiaparelli look she wore to the brand’s show in September 2023. It’s giving high fashion, and it’s perfect for hitting the slopes… or sitting front row at a fashion show.
- The “Feather” Music Video
-
Carpenter surprised her fans by releasing the “Feather” music video on Halloween. In the video, her male suitors all end up dying, but it doesn’t phase Carpenter because she’s better without them. She serves some early 2000s realness in this video, wearing baseball caps, athletic shorts, and pleated mini skirts. The singer saves the best look for last, wearing a big tulle dress with a black veil and high heels to the funeral. In the words of Carpenter, “I’m so sorry for your loss.”
