As we observe the celebrity landscape of love, we find ourselves swooning over our favourite couples from the past and present, admiring the strength they embody as a fashionable unit. What’s not to like about a lovestruck duo dressed to the nines?
Through coordinated dress and sheer chemistry, the fashionable power couple is able to appeal to the hopeless romantic living somewhere within us — while attracting multiple audiences with varied stylistic preferences and palettes at the same time. The concept of styling a power couple like the Carters or the Biebers would, of course, appeal to any designer looking to execute a romantic vision and sell a look worth recreating with our own lovers. Plus, a curated couples ensemble is sure to make a moment worth talking about for decades. Case in point: Brittany Spears and Justin Timberlake’s unforgettable Canadian Tuxedo look, or Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s first pregnancy street style reveal in vintage Chanel. Fashion simply loves a power couple, and so do we.
Read on as we round up some of the most stylish celebrity power couples of all time below.
Mick and Bianca Jagger
The rock and roll romance between Rolling Stone Mick Jagger and Bianca Jagger birthed some of the most glamorous couples’ styles of the ‘70s — from Bianca’s iconic YSL Le Smoking bridal suit to Mick’s androgynous ways of dressing.
Sonny and Cher
You know you’re iconic when you’re a go-to Halloween couple costume every year. Take Sonny and Cher for example — whose collective flower child aesthetic is still one of our favourites to this day.
Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz
One look at Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz’s bohemian ensembles and its no wonder that street style icon Zoë Kravitz is the product of this hip pairing.
David and Victoria Beckham
When a Spice Girl and a sports legend get together, the result is decades’ worth of coordinated couples looks — from leather on leather moments to matching colour palettes. Just ask David and Victoria Beckham.
Beyoncé and Jay Z
The Carters prove that not only are they one of the most powerful partners in the world, but they’re also a force in fashion to be reckoned with. Have you seen their Tiffany Campaign? It’s pure high fashion and high class.
Justin and Hailey Bieber
The Biebers wed in 2018, and ever since they’ve meshed Justin’s laid-back vibe with Hailey’s model-of-duty style to take on red carpets together and deliver on-trend looks that we’re always excited to see on the gram.
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky
A list of fashionable power couples simply cannot be without mention of A$AP Rocky and Rihanna. We should have known that when Rih starred in Rocky’s “Fashion Killa” music video in 2014 that there was truth to the song’s lyrics — because these soon-to-be parents of two are among some of the most stylish stars there have ever been.
