Sofia Richie’s fabulous style evolution: Lionel Richie’s daughter went from edgy-chic to a ‘quiet luxury’ goddess, wearing Chanel at her wedding and with a new fashion brand under way

- Sofia Richie Grainge, who’s modelled for Dolce & Gabbana, Jeremy Scott and Yeezy, has come a long way since her days of rocking Vetements hoodies and Adidas tracksuits
- Nicole Richie’s half-sis has transitioned to more ‘stealth wealth’ looks, experimenting with muted colour palettes and sophisticated yet understated silhouettes – so is she the new ‘It’ girl to watch?
Sofia Richie Grainge is a name that’s long been synonymous with celebrity lineage. As the daughter of music icon Lionel Richie and the half-sister to TV personality and fashionista Nicole Richie, the 24-year-old has swiftly risen through the ranks of the young Hollywood elite (though her sun-kissed California looks and natural flair for style probably helped, too).
Now, with the recent news that the budding trendsetter intends to launch her own clothing label, it appears that Richie is ready to branch out and leave her personal mark on the fashion industry in a big way.

Let’s take a closer look at how the youngest Richie daughter has evolved from a fashion-forward ingénue to designing one of the year’s most hotly anticipated labels.
Sofia Richie: from angsty tween to street style queen
It’s hard to believe now but back in the day, Richie was known for her casual street style with a touch of edginess. As a teenager, she donned graphic tees, bomber jackets and biker boots, before she started to embrace a mix of high-end streetwear – think hoodies by Vetements and Adidas tracksuits – and bohemian elements.
And she definitely pulled it off, earning praise from Vogue France for nailing casual street style.
