Style Transformation: Ellie Goulding
There’s a new collaboration on the horizon and boy, are we pumped. It turns out that Ellie Goulding wants to release ‘Slow Grenade’ featuring Lauv, ahead of her forthcoming album, ‘Brightest Blue,’ which is slated to drop on July 17.
What we know so far, is that Ellie has divided her album into two distinct parts titled ‘Brightest Blue’ and ‘EG.0’, and Lauv falls in the latter with a few other star-studded collaborators like Swae Lee, Blackbear, Diplo and many more. But while we wait at the edge of our seats for all these goodies to drop, we thought it’d be fun to trace Ellie’s style evolution over the years.
The star is very particular about keeping to a healthy diet and in fact, just recently she dished out all her secrets surrounding her immense weight loss. But that’s a story for a different time, right now, we’re going to show you Ellie Goulding through the years.

9. What is this? A dress? Trousers and a top? A cape? We’ll put our bets on the latter. Despite this odd combination she looks so, so classy. Let us in on your secrets, Ellie. (Photo by Stephane Cardinale – Corbis/Corbis via Getty Images)
10. We thought we’d wrap with this, just to prove to you that this woman can pull off anything and everything. And through the years, she’s clearly grown a lot more confident and ready to experiment with different, wacky styles. Well, looks like confidence is key, huh? (Photo by Hanna Lassen/Getty Images)
