How to Dress Like Stevie Nicks While Remaining Your True Self
When Stevie Nicks is on tour, many concert-goers enjoy dressing like her when they go to see her play. But you can borrow her style anytime you want! If you want to know how to dress like Stevie Nicks, you can do that while remaining true to yourself.
Stevie’s performance outfits are very feminine and non-revealing overall. So age doesn’t matter. It’s no wonder she can perform in her 70’s and still look good.
As for the rest of us, an outfit modeled on Stevie’s flowing and embellished stage costumes can make for some beautiful evening dressing. You can try a full-on look or you can just wear one touch with your favorite basics. The one-touch approach can be used for everyday occasions.
She once said, “Don’t be a lady; be a legend.” That’s exactly what she did, because today she is an icon – in fashion as well as in rock ‘n’ roll.
What Would Stevie Wear?
From the pieces listed below, choose your favorites and mix with your usual “uniform” (the clothes you like to wear every day or out in the evenings.) Here are some of Stevie’s style elements that you could search out in your closet to create your own outfits:
- Hats
- Platform boots or sandals
- Beads, layered necklaces
- A crescent moon necklace
- Gossamer tunics
- Lace, velvet and tapestry for texture
- Chiffon and gauzy, breezy fabrics
- Crochet, fringe and brocade
- A distressed or crochet sweater
- Billowy cuts, such as sleeves
- A fringed poncho or ruana (a poncho-style garment that has a slit down the front so you can wrap yourself in it)
- Black, Stevie’s favorite color to wear, makes it easy to recreate her style
- Shawls
- Maxi skirts and dresses
- Sequins
- Steampunk jackets or dresses
- Ruffles and asymmetric hems
- Fitted vests
- Head scarves
Stevie Nicks Style: Outfit Ideas
This is where I begin to give you outfit ideas to help inspire you. Substitute whatever you have. Mix and match these ideas as you like. These are outfits I will be wearing. You do you! 😉
Outfits in Stevie’s Preferred Color, Black
- A black camisole, tank or tee + a sheer and/or fringed black kimono + blue jeans.
- Wear your top of choice with a black lacy maxi skirt + a black faux leather motorcycle vest + boots.
- A black lace tank + black leggings + black fringed cardigan. Layer a long & short pendant. Add black boots + a long, flowing scarf or two + ethnic earrings + a turquoise & silver cuff + rings.
- A flowing black blouse semi-tucked into a black tiered skirt, even better if they have some sequins. Layer a couple of delicate gold necklaces. Add tan platform sandals or chunky heels.
- A black maxi dress + a black fringed cardigan. You might like to layer a long fringed necklace with a shorter gold necklace, a narrow gold bangle and platforms.
- A sheer black kimono + a camisole + navy silk pants or black printed palazzo pants.
Outfits Starting With a Top
- A bell-sleeve tunic + flared jeans + a shawl. Add turquoise jewelry + platform sandals or wedge sandals.
- A loose, satiny tunic belted and bloused over silk pants or velvet flare pants. Layer gold necklaces.
- A crochet top + chiffon maxi skirt. Add a pendant + a scarf + tall boots with a heel or platform boots.
- A fitted top + harem pants or a maxi skirt. Add accessories from the style list at top.
Outfits With Toppers That Create a Stevie Nicks Style
- Top a bell-sleeved dress with a fringed vest or shawl. Add a long pendant + ornate earrings + platform boots or boots with a heel.
- A burnout velvet kimono + a velvet dress, long or short + tall platform boots or tall boots with a heel.
- A lace duster + jeans & a tee. Add a scarf + booties. Layer a long necklace with one or more shorter ones and maybe a long-sleeve lace layering top.
- A long dress in a solid color + a shawl or cape in a contrasting color. Add boots, chokers, long earrings, bracelets, etc.
Outfits in Shades of White:
Mix and match your white clothing with the shades that you have, from pure white to off-white to ivory to ecru to cream to stone. Your outfit doesn’t have to be pure white and it will all blend.
- An ivory lace duster + a camisole + a white lacy maxi skirt or ivory printed chiffon maxi skirt.
- An ivory lace duster + an ivory embellished, embroidered or lacy tunic + ivory skinnies. You may like to add tall boots.
- Wear a column of white, such as a white tank & white skinnies with a white lace duster over it and boots in a shade of white, such as stone. Layer a long & short pendant. Accessorize with a silver cuff + rings + a long flowing scarf or two.
- A white lacy kimono + a white camisole or tank top + white jeans + white jeans. Use any shades of white you have, from pure white to ivory to ecru to cream; mix and match. Add gold jewelry.
- A lace cardigan + white camisole or tank + white pants or jeans.
- A lacy and/or draped white cardigan + a white camisole or bra top + a long, white, frilly skirt. You might like to add a silky sash or scarf tied at waist + black sandals.
- A crochet top + a white lacy skirt or chiffon skirt + tall boots with a heel. Add a featherweight scarf + feather earrings + a pendant or layered necklaces.

What a fantastic feature, Angie! This is such a creative way to incorporate her incredible style onto one’s own style. I just love this!
Thanks, Lola! I hope you find a way to enjoy this beautiful style for yourself. 😉
Oh, what fun! You have the best fashion ideas, Angie! While I can’t do full-on Stevie, I do have a navy blue lace topper that I wore last summer. I am saving it for warmer weather, but that gives me time to plan more outfits that I can wear it with. Plus, I was very interested in your idea that one can wear different shades of white/ivory/cream without having to match them. I’ve never tried that before!
Hi, Allison – You might like to wear your lace topper for Valentine’s Day. You could just layer something warm underneath. – Angie
