Small town Arizona-born star Stevie Nicks, initially found fame as a lead vocalist in the pop-rock band Fleetwood Mac back in 1975. And over the years, The Chain singer’s groovy, witchy style has made as much history as her music.
In those early days, she employed the help of costume designer, Margi Kent, to help compile her Seventies tour wardrobe.
In the Eighties – when the singer began performing as a solo artist too – she stayed true to her beloved floaty styles, often taking an ethereal approach to the decade’s iconic fashions.
Around this time, the star was subjected to criticism for gaining weight – which occurred while dealing with an addiction to Klonopin (a drug prescribed to treat certain anxiety and seizure disorders). Nicks had been prescribed it while she was overcoming cocaine addiction, along with many other musicians at the time, later saying in an interview: “I lost those eight years of my life. I didn’t write, and I had gained so much weight.”
This shift in style didn’t detour her as a fashion muse, however. In 1997, American fashion designer Anna Sui dedicated her whole autumn/winter show to the singer.
