When Sophie Turner made her debut as Sansa Stark in Game of Thrones, it was in an array of flowing pale gowns that would not look out of place on a Disney princess. But as Sansa matured, so did her wardrobe; by the end of the series, her more mature, sensible looks were more befitting of a warrior in training. At the same time, Turner’s style transformed in real life, too.

In the years after she first made her mark on Hollywood, at 13, Turner could most often be found on the red carpet in either a traditionally feminine dress in a muted color or a take on the LBD. Thanks in part to a relationship with Louis Vuitton, though, the actress has since adopted a much edgier look, from the casual Dickies T-shirt and red leather pants that she wore to the afterparty of a Thrones premiere to one of the many daring ensembles she wore while on the X-Men: Dark Phoenix press tour with her co-star, Jessica Chastain. Below, look back at some of Sophie Turner’s most memorable red carpet appearances.
