Fashion moments and iconic looks from her career.

POSTED BY ANA BEATRIZ REITZ

Dubbed the greatest American songwriter of the 21st century by Rolling Stone UK in 2023, Elizabeth Woolridge Grant, aka Lana Del Rey, is sure to be on everyone's playlist. Born and raised in New York, the singer moved to the big city in 2005 to start her music career.

After many demos – who have never searched for Lana Del Rey's unreleased tracks? – the artist's defining moment occurred with the viral sensation of her single "Video Games" in 2011. From shows like Gossip Girl and Ringer including the song in their soundtracks to actress Julia Fox singing the song to her son, now, it's impossible to go a day without hearing about Lana Del Rey.

But since "Video Games", music lovers have been spoiled with more success: albums like Born to Die, Ultraviolence, Honeymoon, Lust for Life, and Norman Fucking Rockwell! contain several iconic songs that remain relevant to this day. The current generation has been devoted to the singer's discography, streaming her latest albums such as Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd, rescuing and popularizing unreleased songs – such as Trash Magic and You Can Be The Boss – while celebrating her accomplishments in the music industry.

With a singular vocal, melodic, and rhythmic style, Lana Del Rey's songs have revolutionized music-making and songwriting, turning songs into true poetry with elegant rhythms. By exploring diverse themes in her lyrics, such as tragic romance, glamour, and melancholia, as well as regular nods to Old Hollywood and '50s and '70s pop culture, she has created not only a musical aesthetic but a fashion one as well. In celebration of the singer's anniversary, let's remember Lana Del Rey's best looks of all time.
