Rita Ora rose to fame in the early 2010s. A singer and actress, Ora’s career spans more than a decade, featuring the star on several red carpets for various awards shows, premieres and more.
Over the years, Ora, born Rita Sahatçiu, demonstrated her eclectic approach to style and fashion. Ora often gravitates toward the unexpected, bucking certain trends in favor of her own signature style.
Ora has thus far worn designs courtesy of Alexander Wang, David Koma, Vera Wang, Elie Saab and more. Even for non-red carpet events, Ora elevates her style with designer pieces. While prepping for her New Year’s Eve cohosting duties in New York City in December 2024, Ora styled a red and black checkered coat from Antonio Marras’s fall 2024 collection.
Here, WWD looks back at some of the best moments from Rita Ora red carpet style evolution through the years.
