  • See ya later Sk8er girl? Lavigne cut an unlikely figure at Paris Fashion Week’s Louboutin, Elie Saab and Stella McCartney shows – and was then spotted kissing Kylie Jenner’s ex, Tyga
  • The millennial punk rock princess has gone through multiple style evolutions, but is today embracing luxury designers like Versace, Vivienne Westwood, and Balmain – who’d have thought?

Here’s something we never thought we’d write – Avril Lavigne dominated the style game at this year’s Paris Fashion Week. Whilst the punk rocker isn’t typically associated with luxury fashion events, Lavigne is proving to us once again that she isn’t afraid to experiment when it comes to her ever-eclectic wardrobe.

And before the long week of shows came to an end, the “Girlfriend” singer broke the internet when she and Kylie Jenner’s ex Tyga, seemingly confirmed their relationship with a great big smooch – and plenty of PDA – at the Mugler x Hunter Schafer party on Monday.

It must be love at first sight – Lavigne only broke off her engagement to Mod Sun just months before. Clearly, her bold, daring fashion style is reflective of her personality.
