October 3rd marks 52 years of iconic Gwen Stefani fashion moments and, you can be sure, there are plenty.&nbsp;

Our favorite punk princess is celebrating her birthday this week, and there&rsquo;s no better way to commemorate than with a trip down memory lane. A true exception to the laws of aging, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/gwen-stefani-new-music-let-me-reintroduce-myself" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gwen Stefani</a> is the ultimate "cool" girl (no pun intended). She has never failed to make a statement, even if it includes accessorizing with a bindi, fur bikini, or adult braces. &nbsp;
In an interview with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIotUWJNQLE&amp;t=358s" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Vogue</a>, Stefani explains that she has always been a fashionista, even when on a budget. Many of the iconic No Doubt-era looks were outfitted with boxed hair dye and over-the-top clothes sent for free. Since dating the No Doubt bassist <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tonykanal/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tony Kanal</a>, Stefani became infatuated with Indian culture, rich colors, and opulent fabrics. Stefani was frequently spotted sporting silky mid-drift baring skirts with decadent jewelry and henna tattoos.&nbsp; &nbsp;
It was not until 2002 that Stefani started to work with stylist <a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/gwen-stefanis-former-stylist-andrea-lieberman-launches-jewelry-line-94611/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Andrea Lieberman</a>, making the punk princess' dream come true. Liberman and Stefani created their first look on the set of Eve&rsquo;s "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wt88GMJmVk0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Let me Blow Ya</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wt88GMJmVk0" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Mind"</a>&nbsp;music video. The ensemble made quite a statement, complete with <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/iconic-hair-pop-culture-history-jennifer-aniston-farrah-fawcett" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pin-up curls</a> and a bedazzled red crop top. It has been magic ever since. The duo agrees that some of the happiest career memories were created making the tomboy-rocker vision come to life.&nbsp; &nbsp;
Since becoming the ultimate girl boss on <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/ariana-grande-will-replace-nick-jonas-on-the-voice-season-21" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Voice,</a> Stefani has preferred classic Hollywood style with a nod to her punk rock roots. Platinum blonde hair and red lips are frequently accompanied by a cascade of rhinestones, vintage letterman jackets, and equally impressive pumps to match.&nbsp;
We watched her transform from the blue-haired No Doubt lead and into the confident, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/top-beauty-trend-by-decade-makeup" target="_blank" rel="noopener">red-lipped judge on The Voice</a>. The independent it-girl reintroduced fun to fashion, painting the red carpet with splashes of plaid, animal print, and various shades of her red lip. From Harajuku Lovers to our favorite <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/lanvin-fall-winter-2021-rich-girl" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&ldquo;Rich Girl,&rdquo;</a> here are 15 of Gwen Stefani&rsquo;s most iconic looks.&nbsp;
