10+ Celebrities Who Like To Recycle Their Looks

Celebs sure know how to make a fashion statement.

With designers lining up to dress them and lots of money at their disposal, they're able to don themselves in the most luxurious wear.

And yet, lots of celebs actually recycle their outfits as well as stick to the same kind of look.

Here are 10+ of these fashion-savvy celebs.

Kate Moss

With over 300 Vogue covers, it’s obvious that Kate knows fashion — and especially leopard print.

The supermodel often frequents leopard print jackets with a little black dress underneath. This even inspired clothing companies like Topshop to make similar looks.

Cate Blanchett

This Oscar-winning actress has taken a liking to a specific Armani Privé gown.

She continues to wear the sheer black dress often and even spoke about it to Harper's Bazaar.

“It seems willful and ridiculous that such garments are not cherished and reworn for a lifetime," she said.

Keira Knightey

BBC

The British actress has a serious obsession with her wedding dress!

She's worn it outside of the confines of a church, including on causal strolls outside her London home and even to a red carpet event.

Jane Fonda

As an advocate for the environment, the Grace & Frankie actress has no quarrels with recycling her 2014 red Ellie Saab couture gown.

When she wore it again to the 92nd Academy Awards, she boldly stated, “I’m not buying any more clothes.”

Kirsten Dunst

It was a major deja vu moment when the actress was photographed in a white lace dress in Paris in 2017.

Fans had first seen Kristen don the dress during a 2004 Vanity Fair Oscar party!

Victoria Beckham

This British beauty is perfectly fine with not always "spicing" up her wardrobe.

Whenever she attends red carpet events, you'll often find her wearing a stunning signature white suit. The sophistication of it has her looking absolutely posh.

Meghan Markle

She may be royal, but Markle isn’t afraid to wear her favorite outfits on repeat!

She's proven that she was quite fond of her elegant Stella McCartney cape dress since she wore it on two occasions.

First, to the Queen's birthday in 2018 and then to the opening ceremony of the Invictus Games later that year.

Joaquin Phoenix

Even men recycle looks!

The Joker star once swept through award season in the same Stella McCartney custom-made tuxedo.

The designer herself revealed why: “He has also chosen to wear this same tux for the entire award season to reduce waste.”

Michelle Obama

In 2015, Michelle Obama wore a Dries Van Noten dress to the World Innovation Summit for Education in Qatar.

The former First Lady then busted out the dress again in 2016 during her husband's Presidential Medal of Freedom ceremony.

Elizabeth Banks

This hilarious actress is no joke when it comes to her favorite red dress that she wore to the 2004 Vanity Fair Oscar party.

When she wore the same dress at the same party 16 years later, she responded to a fan's query on Instagram by writing, “It’s gorgeous and it fits… so why not wear it again!?"

Meryl Streep

What would Miranda Priestly say to Meryl recycling her Catherine Malandrino flag dress?

The Oscar winner first appeared in it during a 2009 Paris photocall for the movie Doubt and then once again in 2016 during a Democratic National Convention.

Sarah Jessica Parker

Time and time again, the Sex and the City star has been seen in the same glamorous dresses.

She once did it twice within two weeks! SJP showed up to two different NYC events in the same leopard print dress!

Laura Dern

The Jurassic Park actress has grown fond of wearing a certain cut-out black dress to many galas and Oscar parties.

She wore the number to the 2020 Vanity Fair Oscar party decades after she first wore it in 1995.

Tiffany Haddish

As someone who comes from humble beginnings, the comedian has no problem showing up to different ocassions in the same Alexander McQueen dress.

As she once explained to W, "When I saw the receipt, I cried. The dress was $4,122! So I’m wearing it multiple [expletive] times."

Rita Moreno

When Rita showed up at the 2018 Oscars, she had on the same gown that she wore when she won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for West Side Story in 1962.

“I would think it would tarnish!” she told Ryan Seacrest during the E! broadcast.

Helen Mirren

The star's love of recycling outfits has actually angered designers!

"Occasionally, designers let me keep what they send me. But you can't wear them more than once as the designers don't like you to," she told ITV's Lorraine.

Anna Wintour

Yes, even the fashion icon and editor of Vogue recycles outfits!

She made quite the fashion statement when she wore the same Balenciaga dress from 2010 to the Giorgio Armani Spring fashion show and the Vogue Fashion Funds party in 2012.

Harry has always been quite the fashion icon.

He didn’t shy away from wearing the same Gucci suit to his step-brother's wedding and during his live performance with Stevie Nicks.

Like Meghan, Kate has never shied away from rewearing her most elegant clothes.

From her white and blue “Lasa Poppies” dress to the Alexander McQueen cherry-colored red coat, it’s apparent that Kate has stapled those pieces into her wardrobe.
