How to Dress Like Penny Lane from Almost Famous

How to Dress Like Penny Lane from Almost Famous

Once I started interning/working in radio in college, I had several people tell me that I had to watch Almost Famous, because I’d love it. They were right. Not only did I like the movie, though, but I also loved Penny Lane’s iconic bohemian, groupie style. From the bell-bottoms, the lace, and THAT coat… I was inspired. I actually got a coat very similar to hers back in 2012 from Nasty Gal and I still adore that coat. I’ve gone through and picked out some items that are in Penny Lane’s essence, usually with a modern twist. If you’re feeling adventurous, try out some vintage stores and dig through the racks for more authentic 70’s bohemian-rock fashion.

“Almost Famous” is a cult classic film that captures the essence of the 1970s rock ‘n’ roll era, and one of the most iconic characters from the movie is Penny Lane, played by the talented Kate Hudson. Penny Lane is the embodiment of free-spirited, bohemian fashion, and her unique style has inspired countless fans. In this blog post, we’ll take a deep dive into Penny Lane’s fashion sense and explore how you can dress like her to unleash your inner rock goddess.

Embrace the Fur

Penny Lane is often seen draped in fur, from her cozy coats to her fluffy accessories. To channel her style, opt for a faux fur coat, vest, or scarf. A long, shaggy faux fur coat in warm colors like brown or burgundy will instantly evoke her iconic look.

Vintage Flair

Penny Lane’s wardrobe is a treasure trove of vintage finds. Head to your local thrift store or vintage shops to discover pieces that capture the ’70s vibe. Look for items like bell-bottom jeans, suede skirts, and crochet tops. Don’t be afraid to mix and match different eras for a truly eclectic style.

Statement Sunglasses

Penny Lane is rarely seen without her oversized, round sunglasses. These sunglasses are a crucial part of her boho-chic look. Invest in a pair of oversized round sunglasses with tinted lenses for that authentic Penny Lane style.

Flowy Dresses and Tops

Flowy, ethereal dresses and tops are staples in Penny Lane’s wardrobe. Opt for dresses with loose, billowy sleeves and intricate patterns. Maxi dresses and peasant blouses can also help you capture her free-spirited vibe.

Embellished Accessories

Penny Lane is all about the details, and her accessories are no exception. Layer on the accessories with long, layered necklaces, chunky belts, and leather boots. Add some embroidery, fringes, or beadwork to your accessories for that extra bohemian touch.

Boho Bags

To complete your Penny Lane-inspired look, invest in a slouchy, boho-style bag. Suede or leather fringe bags are perfect for nailing her style. Choose a bag that is large enough to carry your essentials and adds a laid-back vibe to your outfit.

Floral Crowns

For the full Penny Lane experience, consider adding a floral crown to your ensemble. Flowers in your hair can take your boho look to the next level and capture her flower child essence.

Layer It Up

Penny Lane is a master of layering. Combine different textures and fabrics to create a multi-dimensional look. Layer a suede jacket over a vintage T-shirt and add a fur vest for that quintessential boho-rock vibe.

Comfortable Footwear

Penny Lane’s footwear choices are all about comfort and style. Opt for a pair of knee-high, lace-up boots or platform sandals to achieve her iconic look. Comfort is key, as she was always on the move, following her favorite bands.

Get the Look:

Dressing like Penny Lane from “Almost Famous” is a wonderful way to pay homage to one of the most iconic and influential characters in cinematic history. Her bohemian, free-spirited style is timeless and can easily be incorporated into your everyday wardrobe. So, embrace the fur, experiment with vintage finds, and let your inner rock goddess shine through as you channel the essence of Penny Lane in your fashion choices.
