Frank Olito  Â
- Jennifer Aniston has developed a signature style on the red carpet.
- Aniston loves a plunging neckline and isn't afraid to wear a revealing dress.
- The actress also is known for wearing well-tailored pantsuits.
Jennifer Aniston is no stranger to the red carpet, and she is always willing to take a fashion risk to turn heads.
Throughout her time in the spotlight, Aniston has always gravitated toward simple, black dresses, but they almost always have a revealing, plunging neckline or a high slit. On the other hand, some of her best looks are expertly tailored pantsuits.
In honor of her birthday on February 11, here are the most memorable looks Aniston wore on the red carpet, from the '90s to today.
In 1995, Aniston wore her signature "Rachel" haircut with a revealing outfit to the 2nd Annual VH1 Honors.
The "Rachel" haircut became popular in the mid-'90s after Aniston wore the signature look while playing Rachel on "Friends." But this memorable look was less about the hair and more about the clothing, which revealed her navel and some cleavage, foreshadowing her future red carpet looks.
At the 1997 premiere of her movie "Picture Perfect," Aniston wore a floral printed dress.
The simple, floral dress was paired with an equally simple purse for a classic look.
She turned heads in her gown at the 1999 Emmy Awards.
Brad Pitt and Aniston appeared on the red carpet for the first time together, and the actress wore a beaded top with a flowy skirt by Randolph Duke. For this look, she departed from her "Rachel" haircut and chose relaxed waves.
At the 2002 Golden Globes, Aniston proved she wasn't all about gowns.
On this red carpet, Aniston wore a simple yet expertly tailored black suit that matched Pitt's outfit. It was one of the first times the actress wore a suit, and it wouldn't be the last.
In 2002, Aniston accepted her Emmy Award for "Friends" in a pink gown with a vintage silhouette.
The Dior gown was beaded and complimented her skin tone perfectly. The choker was also a great addition to the vintage dress.
