Lucy Liu Breaks Down 20 Looks, From Charlie's Angels to Kill Bill & More | Life in Looks | Vogue

Lucy Liu takes a trip down fashion memory lane, revisiting some of her most memorable red carpet and on-screen style moments, from her early Hollywood years to today. Lucy reflects on standout looks tied to her career-defining roles, including her time as Alex Munday in Charlie’s Angels and O-Ren Ishii in Kill Bill, recalling how fashion helped shape the identity of those characters. Liu also reminisces about her first major red carpet appearances, from attending the 1999 Emmys in a custom gown by Joseph A. Porro to wearing her first designer dress, a red, beaded one-shoulder Versace, at the Oscars the following year. As her star continued to rise, so did her fashion risks, from her summery Ungaro look at her first Met Gala to a theatrical Zuhair Murad gown at the 2024 Red One premiere in Berlin, underscoring how style has remained a vital throughline throughout her career.
