Kat Dennings Spills The Tea On Her Signature Red Lip And Vintage Look

Kat Dennings' style can only be described as vintage (or old-Hollywood, as InStyle describes it). When opening up about her style to InStyle, the actor said, "Growing up, my mom took me to a lot of vintage stores. I always wore these thrift shop clothes from other eras." She explains that mainstream fashion wasn't for her, that it never complimented her body and she never felt good in it. Instead, she loved the older finds from the 1940s and 1950s, which she also explained fit her body the best due to their often curvier shape. On discovering this, she said, "Fine, I belong in this style. It feels like I am included in this."

What's more, Dennings told InStyle that her signature red lipstick took "decades to practice," but now that she did, it's become synonymous with her as a person. It's a fierce look that says, "I'm here," and we love that she makes her presence so known.

According to Style Bistro, some of Dennings' iconic looks include long, vintable black dresses, lacey headbands, and box clutches with vintage dresses. Kat Dennings is what you get when you bring the twentieth century straight to today's doorstep, and Dennings does it so effortlessly.
