Different Decade, Different Look: 25 Years of Oprah

On May 25, 2011 our favorite talk show came to an end. The Oprah Winfrey Show is iconic in daytime tv history. This long running talk show ran through multiple decades, and as the decades changed so did Oprah’s style. She was able to keep her looks fresh and new from the fist show which aired in 1986 to the last show which aired this week nine years ago. Let’s take a look at Oprah in each decade.

On the very first Oprah Winfrey Show, she wore a red oversized suit and the notorious hairstyle of the 80’s. The large clip earrings that she’s weaning is considered vintage now but in the 80's that was the go to for any business woman.

Oprah is a total transformation since the 80’s. This simple black turtleneck and jeans look could work now but for the 90’s she was right on parr. Her big buckled belt and shorter teased hair just screams 90’s.

In the 2000’s it was in style to wear bright colors and in 2003, Oprah wore a tailored bright red suit with a matching bright red pump. Her simple, brushed back, sleek hair and bright suit was a really popular look in the early 2000’s as we see in multiple movies from those times.

The show ended in the beginning of her fourth decade as a talk show host. They had come a long way but on her very last show she kept it simple and classy with a little detail in this knee length baby pink dress. The 2010’s was all about keeping it classy and that's exactly what Oprah did for her last episode. Her hair is long straight and beautifully positioned as she waves goodbye to the most iconic talks show ever.
