A Look Back at Young Courtney Love's '90s Style
The free-spirited rockstar has always had bold style, we've taken a look at Courtney Love's ever-resonant 90's style.
Embracing the true essence of a rockstar, Courtney Love has never been one to shy away from controversy. Her biggest and most recent scandal was in 2021 when she made headlines for accusing pop darling Olivia Rodrigo of plagiarising her band's album cover. Love, however, has had a long history of making waves. Her ascent into the public eye began in the 1990s as she performed as the lead vocalist for rock band The Hole, and married the late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain. From there, she gained notoriety not just for her successful music career, but antics like throwing a shoe at Madonna on live television and flashing David Letterman. Just like her unabashed personality, Love has worn plenty of head-turning outfits throughout the height of her career.
During the '90s and early 2000s, the singer-songwriter effortlessly vacillated between grunge and Old Hollywood glam. She looked just as confident in all-black ensembles and bedhead as she did in elegant gowns with her blonde locks coiffed, rocking see-through dresses balanced by delicate lace appliques. On Love's 59th birthday, celebrate her outspoken energy with a look back at her best '90s looks.
