Christina Aguilera Rewears Iconic Versace Dress Nearly 22 Years Later

Christina Aguilera’s style is just as good as it was in 2003.

Aguilera, 44, stepped out in a vintage Versace dress that she once wore in 2003 while posing at a photocall for Burlesque: The Musical in London — in which her own songs are featured — on Monday, July 21. The lime green design featured a cowl neckline that cascaded into a structured corset. The bodice laced up with a thick matching ribbon, which Aguilera tied in a knot at the bottom. The number was finished with a ruffled high-low skirt.

Aguilera added an element of edge to her ensemble with black thigh-high leather boots, which coordinated with her black pout.

The rest of the singer’s makeup was complete with filled-in eyebrows, flirty lashes, shimmery eyeshadow that was blended to her crease and cut with a bronzy shade and blushed cheeks. Aguilera’s platinum locks were parted down the middle and worn down and straightened.

Aguilera styled her getup with silver accessories, including a number of earrings and delicate rings.

When Aguilera wore the look in a 2003 campaign for Versace, she donned minimal makeup, including razor-thin eyebrows and nude lips, letting the dress speak for itself. Her hair was teased and worn in a voluminous look, and she opted for no jewelry.

Christina Aguilera’s fashion throwback at the London photo call for Burlesque the Musical is a self referencing look! 💚 #christinaaguilera #xtina #xtinaaguilera #versace #versace2003 #versacedress #burlesquemovie #burlesquemusical #iconicdress #2003

That same year, Donatella Versace, who recently stepped down as the label’s creative director, gushed about Aguilera posing for the brand.

“I watch the videos of Christina and I always die,” the designer said, per Billboard. “She is a great dancer, a great singer, her voice is amazing. I always hoped I could do something with her, but I wanted to be friends first, that is the most important thing for me.”

Aguilera isn’t the only star who has slayed in the Versace dress. Also in 2003, Beyoncé rocked it at the MTV Movie Awards. While posing on the red carpet, Beyoncé, 43, paired it with a diamond drop necklace and dangling earrings. She completed her outfit with scrappy green sandals finished with statement beads and a slicked-back updo.

For glam, Beyoncé donned a full beat, including long lashes, black eyeliner, glossy lips and highlighted cheeks.
