At 6 years old, Dakota Johnson started learning the ropes of the red carpet alongside parents Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson — and oh, how that experience has paid off. Now a major star in her own right, the Fifty Shades of Grey star has quickly solidified her spot as one of fashion's most consistent head turners. 

"Dakota can pull off looks that a lot of people can't," her stylist, Kate Young, said, which may be why the actress has become a muse and frequent collaborator with Gucci.

One of the other reasons Johnson's style is getting so much attention? Her choices — from high-wattage Chanel Haute Couture sparkle and minimalist Dior suits to whatever Alessandro Michele has dreamed up for her at Gucci. Johnson has a strong fashion partner in Young, who has dressed Margot Robbie and Selena Gomez. Young told Vogue in 2021 that working with Johnson was fun because "she likes clothes, not all actresses do," before adding, "It's fun trying on clothes with her; it's not serious or stressful, and she humors me." 

Young said that in addition to Gucci, Johnson favors Saint Laurent because "it has a similar vibe of sleek business in the day and disco-y at night." No matter the event, Johnson has proved she'll bring her signature playful sensibility.

Ahead, we've compiled Dakota Johnson's best red carpet moments so far.
