From his bold Purple Rain-era style at the 1985 GRAMMYs to his final GRAMMY appearance in 2015, Prince always made a statement.

Prince made his GRAMMY stage debut that night, performing “Baby I’m a Star” alongside The Revolution. It was also a major night for the icon, who earned the first three GRAMMY Awards of his career, including Best Album of Original Score Written for a Motion Picture for Purple Rain.

Watch Prince’s style evolve across three decades from ruffles, lace and curls to his iconic afro, sunglasses and shimmering orange ensemble. No matter the era, Prince remained one of music’s most fearless and unforgettable fashion icons.
