Queen of style versus goddess of outrageousness: J.Lo VS Lolita Milyavskaya

American singer JLo and Russian pop star Lolita are style icons for many generations. Both performers are active participants in social life, their photos every hour appear on the pages of famous publications, girls and women are guided by their tastes, and men admire them. So what is their secret?

It is worth focusing on the fact that Lolita and Jennifer are on different polarities in their images, but they are united by one very important detail - self-love. Yes, both women are in love with themselves and their lives, and this trait is fundamental to their style.

The early years of Lolita's work

Ever since the days of the cabaret duet “Academy,” Milyavskaya has amazed fans with the extravagance of her outfits. Together with Alexander Tsekalo, they created funny and absurd images, which brought the audience to colic with laughter.She walked on stage in a tutu, an amazing wide-brimmed hat and various wigs, and people couldn't stop talking about it.

But one of the brightest women on the Russian stage cannot be accused of lack of taste. For me, her green slip dress that she wore in 1990 is representative. The simple silhouette perfectly accentuates her figure, and the poisonous green color adds zest to the outfit and contrasts beautifully with her dark hair and fair skin. In the photo we see Lolita, whose beauty and seductiveness could rival the heroine of Nabokov’s novel of the same name.

The early years of Jennifer Lopez

When it comes to Jennifer Lopez's early years, the first thing that comes to mind is the pink teddy suit she wore to the MTV TRL event in 2002. At that time, Jay was a prominent representative of R’n’B culture and could often be seen in sports and casual outfits. But even to them she added details in the form of elegant accessories or feminine heeled shoes.

What does J.Lo wear in everyday life?

The main feature of Jennifer Lopez's everyday style is comfort, and the basic colors of her wardrobe are black and white, which she mixes with calm pastel colors. It is very rare to see a singer wearing bright colors or heels in everyday life. Denim, a loose fit, calm colors and a low cut - this is what she would wear for a walk with her family or to the store.

Leopard, lace, mini and open shoulders - in my opinion, the dress is overloaded with flashy accents. A cape is very appropriate here, it makes the image more balanced; if it were made of fabric without print or fur, the look would be harmoniously completed.In this image, I really like the shoes and the string of pearls on the singer’s neck.

The famous domestic stylist Alexander Vasiliev said: “It’s better to forget about the “mermaid” style for Lolita Milyavskaya.” I’m not afraid to challenge expert opinion and say that this style suits the singer extremely well. This silhouette advantageously emphasizes the bust, waist and long legs.

Unforgettable images of J.Lo

Jennifer Lopez was declared a style icon (once again) in 2019. But she has been dictating fashion from the moment she first stepped on the red carpet. Her outfits are bright, but at the same time laconic. Stylists from all over the world never cease to be surprised and praise her unique taste.

In her images, the singer always pays tribute to the classics, but dilutes it with interesting elements. Let's say in the first photo we see a typical red carpet dress, but Jay added a twist in the form of a translucent hem, showing off her beautiful legs to the world. In the second photo, the star is shining in the truest sense of the word. And again he puts on a classic style, but from an unusual material. The third image is just wow. I can't think of any other comment.

But JLo's most famous look is the stunning Versace dress she wore on the day she was nominated for her first Grammy Award. This outfit has been considered iconic in fashion history for twenty years. The singer herself says that this is her favorite costume.

To the great surprise of the public, she said that she had to defend the outfit to her agent, who considered it too revealing.But when she put on the now famous Versace dress, she and her stylist realized: this is what they need! Although the singer had doubts about how to wear it correctly, so as not to expose more than she should, the dress made a splash on the red carpet in 2000.

In 2019, Jennifer Lopez walked down the catwalk in an exact copy of the famous dress, which caused a pleasant stir among fashion connoisseurs and fans of the singer. I think this moment is truly iconic and very touching.

Instead of a conclusion

So what unites two, at first glance, such different women. What is the secret of their success and beauty? The answer is simple - self-love. If JLo and Lolita weren’t confident in themselves, didn’t love and respect themselves, and listened to critics’ comments and gossip about themselves, it’s unlikely that they would have reached such heights.

Should they be imitated? In part, yes, but the main example set by the performers is to listen to your heart and never lose your individuality.
