Christina Aguilera Revisits Iconic Versace Dress for a Modern Look

Once associated with her early fashion moments, Christina Aguilera has brought back her legendary Versace corset dress, first seen in a campaign 22 years ago. The green lace-up piece, characterized by a handkerchief hem, made a stylish comeback when she wore it to attend “Burlesque: The Musical,” a stage adaptation of the 2010 film where she served as an executive producer alongside Cher.

Aguilera’s vintage ensemble was styled with a fresh, contemporary vibe. She paired the dress with knee-high black leather boots and styled her hair in a striking platinum blonde, echoing her original 2003 shoot. The singer added a bold touch with black lipstick, giving the look an edgy, modern appeal.

The dress itself continues to be a favorite among celebrities. It has been worn previously by Beyoncé at the MTV Movie Awards in 2003, accessorized with gold strappy sandals and a statement necklace. More recently, it was donned by model Iris Law at a London Fashion Week party in 2022, showcasing its timeless appeal.
