Nicki Minaj has always been….eccentric with her style. 
When she first stepped out on the scene, she was the Queen of crazy colored wigs and artistic outfits. Paired with insane lyrics that had everyone hype for the female M.C. (nobody will ever forget Itty Bitty Piggy or her verse on Monster), Ms. Minaj also had a thing for insane outfits, way-out-there makeup and the hair to match.
Even in her earlier days, Minaj was experimenting with designer brands and labels (like for her first Grammy Awards show, she DID wear Givenchy), it was just the execution of her overwhelming outfits that needed a little bit of nurturing and love.
We then got to see the style evolution take place: Nicki was still wearing color, but had started ditching the out there makeup and neon-colored wigs. We could really focus on her looks (because she is stunning!) and actually get excited to see what she’d wear next. 
Nowadays, it’s nothing to see this mogul wearing paired-down designer threads; Yves Saint Laurent, Givenchy, Balmain, Alexander McQueen and more race through her closet as she effortlessly slays on the red carpet or even in her day to day musings on Instagram. She wears more everyday makeup as well as toned down hair (although she will experiment with highlights every so often).
All we can say is that Nicki looks amazing now! Want to see more of her style evolution? Check out the gallery where we REALLY show you the true evolution of one of America’s greatest female M.C.’s.
