23 Photos Of Martha Stewart's Epic Style Over The Years

The "original influencer" has an expectedly iconic style evolution.
LOADINGERROR LOADING

Martha Stewart has now been dubbed “the original influencer” by Harper’s Bazaar. Even if you aren’t already a follower (of either her career or her social media accounts), a look back at her wardrobe confirms that title.

The imitable expert in all things food, home and DIY has been a mainstay on our screens for decades. Her business endeavors have never focused heavily on fashion (though she does have a QVC line), but the 79-year-old has made her mark in the fashion world over the years, both as a young model and as a person whose closet we’d like to raid.

Stewart spent the ’90s exemplifying what is now once again “on trend” ― boxy blazers; high-waisted, loose-fitting denim; and even a bit of athleisure.

Her style has remained consistently classic over the years, save for a few big hats and wide-legged, bright green sequined pants.

Below, take a look back at some of Stewart’s best dressed moments throughout the years.
