Rita Ora is one of the new judges set to nurture talented Australian singers on The Voice, and for fans of the musician, they’ll know this means audiences will be treated to some killer fashion moments.
Since the I Will Never Let You Down singer burst onto the music scene in 2012, Rita has served edgy and daring outfits.
Her avant-garde style has at times copped flack for being too eccentric, but the fashion industry has embraced Rita over the years.
She was named house ambassador for Escada in 2019, she has a footwear line called Rita Ora X ShoeDazzle, and she’s a Met Gala mainstay.
In an interview with Vogue UK, the 50 Shades of Grey actor described her style as an experimental mix of feminine and masculine silhouettes.

“My style is not quite as girly as some of these outfits. I usually like to switch it up and mix it with a tomboy vibe—in a beanie or a cap and add colour pops. I’m all about textures and details. Not just the overall look—it’s how it feels. The little things that add to the look,” she told Vogue.
She also revealed how she believes music and fashion are intrinsically connected.
“I love how music and fashion are so similar. We need each other. At the moment, music feeds off fashion and fashion feeds of music, and when they get together, they fuse perfectly,” she said.
However, Rita isn’t just about red-carpet glitz. Her street style is naturally intriguing too, but it’s also surprisingly relatable.
In a discussion with W Magazine, Rita spoke about her penchant for online shopping.
“I actually do a lot of online shopping. Is that embarrassing? I buy all my tomboy streetwear online and all my girly stuff in person,” said Rita.
Rita’s style file is really something and these 15 looks from over the years prove this judge will lighten up the Voice’s stage.
