Tina Turner’s most iconic looks through the debates

The Queen of Rock n Roll was a music legend but also a style icon.

Tina Turner sadly passed away yesterday following a long illness at the age of 83. Her publicist issued a statement following the 'Proud Mary' singer's death. It read: "Tina Turner, the “Queen of Rock’n Roll” has died peacefully today at the age of 83 after a long illness in her home in Kusnacht near Zurich, Switzerland. With her, the world loses a music legend and a role model." Tributes have been pouring in for the music legend ever since the sad news broke.

We wanted to pay our own tribute and reminisce on the Queen of Rock n Roll's fabulous fashion statements over the decades.

Starting with this show-stopping fit that Tina wore for a shoot in LA in 1977. According to The Cut, Bob Mackie, a longtime fashion collaborator of Tina's said she loved to rework French dresses and make them into costumes. Speaking about this incredible winged dress in her memoir, Tina wrote: "I looked like I was about to take flight and soar — which was exactly how I felt about being on my own for the first time."

Tina wore this stunning beaded fiery dress live onstage in 1979. This look really merged Tina's love of rock and roll and her disco persona together.
