Chappell Roan had a notable year in 2024, with so many unique looks on the red carpet and on stage that the singer decided to rank her styles to bid farewell to her epic year.
On Monday, December 30, Roan, 26, shared an Instagram gallery post of 10 of her favorite looks from the past 12 months. “That’s my OPINION,” she captioned the post, adding, “Yes, I consider myself iconic.”
Roan’s fourth favorite look was one look that left her “triggered,” she wrote above the photo — but probably not because of what she was wearing.
During the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, Roan wore a Y/Project sheer flowing medieval-inspired dress, complete with a mint green cape and thigh-high boots. She even carried a sword and had a carpet laid over the VMA carpet, to make her look like she just stepped out of a medieval painting.

Roan’s VMA experience was not without drama. The video captured someone saying, “Shut up…” in her direction. “Shut the fuck up!” replied the “Casual” singer pointing in the direction of the heckler.
After she stepped aside to have her clothes fixed, Roan added, “Don’t. Not me, bitch!”
During her performance at the VMAs, Roan kept with the medieval theme, wearing armor while performing “Good Luck, Babe!” Roan chose armor as her sixth favorite look of 2024.

Roan’s favorite look in 2024 was the Statue of Liberty-inspired outfit she wore to the 2024 Governors Ball. The singer wore green body paint, a crown, tuba top and skirt for her set, which opened with “Femininomenon.”
During the show, Roan told her fans that she was “in love” because Lady Liberty is “the greatest queen of all.” She then quoted part of the poem engraved on the Statue of Liberty: “Give me your weary, your poor, your huddled masses, longing to breathe free.”
For her, “It means freedom in trans rights, it means freedom in women’s rights… and especially it means freedom for all the oppressed people in the occupied territories,” Roan said.

Roan’s look is heavily inspired by drag culture. During a stop at The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in June, Roan said she and her stylist Genesis Webb are also inspired by horror movies, burlesque and theater. (Roan ranked her look from the show as his eighth favorite of the year.)
“I like to look pretty and scary,” Roan told Fallon. “Or, like, beautiful and tasteless. Or she’s just not pretty. I love that too.”
She also said that some of her looks don’t have the deeper meanings that some fans are looking for.

I just don’t think it’s serious, she said in June. “I love that fans find such deep meaning in things, and I’m just like, ‘I don’t know, I thought I looked hot.’ Like, I don’t know if it’s more than that.”
Roan’s next big moment will come on February 2 at the 67th Grammy Awards. She was nominated for six awards, including Best New Artist, Album of the Year for The Rise and Fall of a Midwestern Princess and Song of the Year for “Good Luck, Babe!”
