Drew Barrymore Style Evolution – Going the Distance for Fashion
Filed under: Fashion, Celebrity, News, Celebrity Style
From pigtails and cowgirl costumes to grunge-era goddess to “Grey Gardens,” 35-year-old Drew Barrymore has experienced more style (and career) transformations than most.
As heir to one of Hollywood’s most famous acting dynasties, former child star with a tumultuous past, and current award-winning leading lady and director, Barrymore has endured nearly a lifetime in the business with confidence and her own unique personal style.
The actress is back on the big screen — opposite real-life boyfriend Justin Long — in the rom-com “Going the Distance,” in theaters Sept. 3.
Browse the below gallery of her most memorable looks, both on and off the set.

Child star Drew (circa 1983) went a bit too heavy-handed on the makeup and jewelry in genie-esque get-up. We’ll let her off easy because she was eight freaking years old.

A plaid dress and a teddy bear dress? Adorable. Drew worked this innocent look in 1984.

For the 1984 SAG Awards, Drew looked like a little princess in her white polka-dot party dress.

It’s Jem. No, wait, it’s a red Crayon. Or maybe it’s just a loopy costume from a then nine-year-old Barrymore, circa 1984.

Metallic silver party dress? Check. Fur stole? Check. Tan stockings? Check. Drew got dolled up for the red carpet in 1984.

Either Barrymore was staging a 1985 recreation of the pilgrims landing at Plymouth Rock, or ’80s fashion really was that heinous.
