Nicki’s youth does not hinder her maturity in style. In fact, even at her young age, she has been an epitome of originality in the way she dresses and carries herself. It would be almost unthinkable to see her in an ultra conservative, super long or loose fitting outfit. She does not dress modestly. Just like her performances, her style speaks for itself.
If there is one word that would generally sum up her fashion style, it’s dynamic. Most of the time, her hair color is always changing from blonde to brunette to black and pink. To create balance, the tight jeans, which are her favorite, come in. Judging from her red carpet and everyday photos, it’s safe to say that her favorite bottoms are jeans. These are her staple and they show off her flattering figure. However, there are times where she wears skirts and dresses as well.
Nicki, whose hits include Superbass and Moment For Life, has a style that can be described as crazy, 90s inspired and in your face, but this unpredictable approach to fashion does not stop her from maintaining a sexy feel. Perhaps her loud and blunt personality contrast a more demure and feminine alter ego. The way she combines her wardrobes, shoes and accessories adds a flavor of oddity and edginess that keeps people wondering. Wearing sneakers instead of the usual high-heeled sandals with a dress is a perfect example to prove this point. Also, she wears vintage clothes from time to time whenever she feels like it.
She’s a natural when it comes to layering as well. She knows her body and her assets so well that’s why she never fails to make the guys go gaga. When asked about her sense of style, she often attributes her success to her stylist. This clearly shows her simple personality and humility despite her fame and fortune. Nicki Minaj is clearly an epitome of class and elegance who has a liking for 80s vintage clothing. There is no doubt that she’s a fashion icon in the making.
