The revenge dress is a great little thing to have when you need to make a statement after you have been through hell with your relationship. Look below for more pictures of celebrities in revenge dresses and why their fashion choices are still remembered today.

Princess Diana

Case in point, Princess Diana at the Serpentine Gallery in 1994. Having made headlines that her marriage to Prince Charles was falling apart, she made a very bold move. She stepped out on the town wearing a sexy low-cut Christina Stambolian black evening dress with black see-through tights and black high-heeled shoes. And on her neck was a luxurious pearl, sapphire, and diamond necklace. Nobody expected so much from her, but she delivered style-wise and made a bold statement that she was now a free woman who was not to be bothered to play with royal rules anymore.

Lily Allen

Lily Allen also had a failed marriage, and she chose on two occasions to look hot and sexy both at various awards shows.

Nicole Kidman

Nicole Kidman recently split from her husband Keith Urban, and so she stepped out to Vogue World 2025 in a hot black dress by Chanel.

Elizabeth Hurley

Amid a cheating scandal from her then boyfriend Hugh Grant, Elizabeth Hurley was as charming as ever when she stepped out to a party. She wore a silver dress with sexy revealing cutouts emphasizing her breasts.

Mariah Carey

With another failed marriage, Mariah Carey bravely stepped out for a night on the town. It was the MTV Award Show, and she looked good in a black two-piece dress.
