Lana Del Rey isn’t always at the top of the list when it comes to pop-star fashion — but we think she should be. Since her Born To Die days, the singer has made a splash on stage, whether she’s dressed in a simple tee and jeans, or channeling ‘70s and ‘80s glamour with flower crowns and bouffants. Ahead of the singer’s first headlining performance at Coachella 2024, take a look back at an eventful decade of her live-show style, featuring — you guessed it — lots of big hair and white dresses.
