Sadie Sink didn’t appear as the sharp-tongued Max Mayfield until the second season of Stranger Things, but she quickly made her mark on viewers. It didn’t take long for her to make her mark on fashion, too. On camera, Max’s signature uniform of vintage tees, worn-in denim, and that ever-present Walkman has become instantly recognizable. Off camera, though, Sink has cultivated a very different aesthetic.
From her early days on the red carpet in 2016 up until now, Sink has favored classically feminine looks with a twist. While she loves a classic fit-and-flare dress from Chanel and Miu Miu, she’s just as likely to show up to a gala or awards show in a ruffled dress with side cut-outs or a crisply tailored pantsuit.
Here, take in Sink’s best red carpet moments from 2015 until now.
