Favourite Lana Looks of 2017

[Elle 121,280]

Now that 2017 has come to a close and 2018 has begun, I thought it would be fun to reflect on some of our favourite Lana looks of 2017! Because I'm extra, I chose a top 25, with 1 being my most favourite & so on. I put photos in the spoiler so it doesn't clog up the thread. 

I'm interested to see what looks of Lana's you all enjoyed the most from 2017!

 

 

 

1. April 20 - Dazed Magazine

The date isn't accurate since we don't know when the photoshoot was, but I just put the date of the magazine release. This is definitely my favourite look of 2017 (as evident by the site theme) Her hair was glorious. Very BTD-esque. Her makeup looked great here too. All of the shots from this photoshoot were amazing.

 

 

 

 

 

2. May 3rd - V Magazine

The iconic bouffant! I was so excited to see it return. Her makeup was absolutely stunning too. One of her best looks, ever.

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. August 12 - Way Out West Festival

Again, love her hair. The dress also remind me of the vintage dresses she would wear during her 2014 American leg of the Paradise tour. I ended up snagging this dress for myself too.

 

 

 

 

 

4. August 11 - Flow Fest

I know a lot of people weren't crazy about this look, but I really loved it. I thought the skirt was super cute and thought it was trendy that she paired it with an oversized sweatshirt (even if it is Adidas.) Also, the red flower in her hair paired with her berry lip completely make the outfit.

 

 

 

 

 

5. May 11 - on Instagram

I wish we had pictures from this day since this was just from her Instagram story, but OH MY GOD this post will forever be an iconic video. Her beachy hair and her natural beauty are incredible.

 

 

 

 

 

6. September 8 - Santa Barbara Bowl

This dress was super cute. Her hair was gorgeous as well. She was very smiley this day, and everyone knows that a smile is one's best accessory.

 

 

 

 

 

7. August 1 - House of Blues, Anaheim

Out of all the black long sleeved shirt & jeans looks she did this year, this one was the best executed. The shoes were super cute (I just bought a pair for myself the other day) and the flower in her hair is everything. I also love the soft waves in her hair on this day. Kudos to Anne!

 

 

 

 

 

8. July 26 - Amoeba

This was my second favourite black&jeans look of the year. I'm not sure if it was just because she was at Amoeba again or what, but she truly looked straight out of 2011/2012. Her face looked so young here - I'm thinking a pairing between her makeup this day and, again, how smiley she was. I also liked how her hair was pulled back out of her pretty face.

 

 

 

 

 

9. December 17 - Melrose Trading Post

I feel like this will be a popular favourite. Despite another repeat outfit, her hair looked so gorgeous this day not terribly long after the big chop & her eyelashes are INCREDIBLE! I'm calling Pammy up right now to see what lashes she has Lana using.

 

 

 

 

 

10. July 24 - Candid in London

I remember seeing this photo and thinking it could have easily been straight out of July 2012. Her face and her hair scream BTD era. She ended up performing a concert later this day (I attended it and it was the day I finally met Lana yay) but by that time her hair had fallen a bit and she changed into one of her infamous black shirts lol. So the look from earlier in the day wins!

 

 

 

 

 

11. April 30 - Candid at a Beach House in Malibu

Similar to the look above, I saw this post on instagram and thought it was a throwback post from around September 2014. I'm serious. Then when everyone started posting it, I realised it was from that day. I was shaken to the core. Even though it's a natural look, she looked amazing.

 

 

 

 

 

12. June 30 - Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel

This reminded me so much of her 2011 Grasslands performance look, and I loved the throwback. (as you can tell, I love throwback looks.)

 

 

 

 

 

13. March 16 - Candid on a Beach in Malibu

This was another day full of iconic candids paired with an iconic look. Her dress was super cute and her hair looked nice too.

 

 

 

 

 

14. May 9 - Elle Magazine

Again, the date is incorrect, but I just put the date of the first time this shoot was spoken of. She looked really gorgeous during this shoot. The photo I'm putting in the spoiler is one of my favourite photos of the year.

 

 

 

 

 

15. November 14 - Manager Awards

This look reminded me so much of her 2013 Brit Awards look. The dress was perfect for her and her hair was styled beautifully. I prefer this look to the EMA look, which was the day before. 

 

 

 

 

 

16. March 20 - Instagram

I was instantly hit with April 2014 nostalgia when I saw this instagram post. From her hair to her makeup, she looked straight out of the Ultraviolence era. Also, this is when she first teased Yosemite with her shirt... iconic.

 

 

 

 

 

17. August 19 - Krakow Live Festival

This dress!! Omg!! I also snagged this dress for myself. It's super cute. I also liked how she styled her hair this day, it was so unique. Even though the eyeliner was an interesting choice, she still pulled it off well.

 

 

 

 

 

18. April 6 - Flaunt Magazine

I'm so sad this is the only photo we have of this look, because it looks amazing. I can imagine that professional photos would make it even more amazing. Lana as a bride? Can we get any more iconic here??

 

 

 

 

 

19. March 27 - Grazia BTS

This has got to be one of her best selfies of 2017. I've always thought that light pinks look beautiful on her.

 

 

 

 

 

20. - October 23 - Terminal 5 NYC

When I saw her step out on stage this night, I was shaken. Again, despite the same black&jeans look, this was another one that was styled nicely. The top was really cute & different from what she had been wearing. I really liked the neckline. Her jewelry was also gorgeous.. that choker though!! Wow! I also appreciated the volume in her hair after the big chop.

 

 

 

 

 

21. January 28 - Candid in LA

This was the first look to leave me shaken in 2017. Her hair. Enough said.

 

 

 

 

 

22. September 22 - on Instagram

She looked so sweet on this day. I wish we had photos from it. Whatever top or dress she's wearing looks adorable & I love the way her hair is styled.

 

 

 

 

 

23. June 18 - Leaving the Nice Guy lounge

Her dress paired with that sweater is just precious. & her hair was a nice change this night.

 

 

 

 

 

24. September 11 - Hollywood Troubadour 

Another natural, yet gorgeous look. Her makeup was simple, yet gorgeous. Also... teasing us with that LFL windbreaker before we even knew what it was!

 

 

 

 

 

25. July 22 - Airport in France

Who else could make walking in an airport look like a runway? Yes, the outfit is tired, but her makeup was amazing this day. 

 

 

 

 

[softcore babyface 4,376]

 

I loved this look, if her hair was light she would look so 2011/2012. I mean this is exactly how she used to dress.

[salvatore 21,769]

the one where she's in a black shirt and blue jeans with either a black/brown shoe or a casual pinkish jelly flat

[salvatore 21,769]

But on a serious note, your picks were some of my favorites ESPECIALLY #5, the natural face w the water or serum drops had me jaw dropped as to how gorgeous she looked. It's honestly so weird how she can look so young and so reminiscent towards BtD/Paradise/Ultraviolence and then days after she looks so different like she got work but she didnt- not meant to be tasteless it's just wild how she can apparently turn her youth button on at will

 

Out of your list I loved these looks the most (4, 5, 8, 12, 15, 16 ,and 23. In which she has SUCH BtD face it's insane, we forsure know she could look the exact same if she made an effort to recreate some looks) however to me her most iconic one was from her birthday (even though it's the black shirt/blue jeans) where her hands are up, multiple phones are visible, tiara in hair- and she looks like the bitchiest but yet most fun and down to earth 19 y/o you've ever SEEN

A timeless classic we would all love to never see again. I loved seeing her that night though, she looked so good even if it was something simple.

(No shade Elle, but like 50% of those outfits are the same, how can you grade them differently? I'm talking about the dark jeans + black top situtaion btw)

 

I agree with Way Out West and the Adidas skirt + top + flower, they were so cute! Wool Gucci dress for best managers speech and her stunning Gucci gown for MTV EMA's were fantastic!
So where is the Way Out West dress from? You need to tell us in the Get The Look thread.

For all of these looks I didn’t only take in account the clothing, but also the hair, makeup, and accessories! Even though she wore the same thing like all this year, some days were styled better than others & made incredible looks.

 

I plan to make a big post in that thread eventually! You wouldn’t believe how much Lana clothing I have now.. I need to take pictures in them! My most recent piece is the white dress she wore in the new Billboard Photoshoot. Ironically enough, it’s from the same brand that made the Way Out West dress as well as the Krakow dress I just wore the other day! X

[Ultra Violet 18,961]

Elle magazine for sure

Also v magazine

 

And that stunning floral dress for mtv ema

 

 

(Not been too interested in her live performance outfits this year. All white dresses and black casual clothing

Actually, does her hair in the Love video and dress in the White Mustang video count?

TELL MEEEEEEEEEE

[PARADIXO 32,940]

the Lust for Life era truly was something else

[Highway Noir 483]

FLOW FEST LOOK YESSSSSS SO UNDERRATED 

[sparklrtrailrheaven 9,050]

Krakow Live Festival is a CAREER highlight for me. One of my fave looks she's ever done -- that hair and make-up is incredible

 

 

 

[maxthehitman 1,729]

Great picture post Elle.  

I haven´t seen some of those photos before.

 

Lana Del Rey should change her name to Lana Babelicious !  

[Doll Harlow 12,367]

You picked all of the great ones! This one is my favorite from her shows that year:

 

 

There should be a thread like this for every year Lana has been in the spotlight. It would be so hard to choose for especially iconic years like 2013 and 2014 though.
