Joey King's Style Evolution Over the Years

Joey King started her career at 9 years old, guest starring in shows like The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, and she’s come a long way since then—with Emmy nominations for her performance in The Act and quickly becoming a fan favorite as the lead in Netflix’s The Kissing Booth trilogy. We’ve seen the young actress grow up right in front of us, and her style has grown with her. Starting her red carpet career with prim dresses and ballet flats, King is almost unrecognizable in custom Miu Miu for the 2026 Met Gala. 

Before she got to where she is now, the actress has explored many different looks over the years. From black and white suits to ’60s mod style and huge tulle gowns, King has an amazing style history. The key to her eclectic style is never being afraid to take risks. She has sported a shaved head with a sheer dress, a leather harness, and even a 3D-printed dress from Iris Van Herpen. 

In 2022, Joey King’s Bullet Train promotion looks made headlines. From her tailored Thom Browne look to her retro Marc Jacobs ensemble, King continues to stand out on the red carpet no matter what. Since then, King has appeared in several films and television series, including the 2024 rom-com A Family Affair alongside Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron. Her most anticipated project, however, is Practical Magic 2, a sequel to the cult-classic 1998 film Practical Magic starring Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman. 

As she’s matured both personally and professionally, her style has evolved alongside her, embracing sharper silhouettes, bold luxury labels, and a more refined sense of self that has cemented her as a bona fide fashion girl.
