Katie Holmes: Girl Next Door Turned Fashionista

We first met Katie on the small screen as the girl from 'Dawson's Creek.' She went on to become a movie star, married her girlhood crush, Tom Cruise, had a baby (Suri) and created her own fashion line, Holmes & Yang. With her new role in 'The Giver,' let's look back at her styling looks.

Costars Holmes and James Van Der Beek were newbies on the red carpet at their first Emmy awards in 1998.

Katie and then-boyfriend Chris Klein were all smiles at the premiere of her film 'Pieces of April.'

Holmes looked easy, breezy, beautiful in Carolina Herrera at the Miramax Golden Globes after-party in 2005.

Katie wore long wavy locks outside the Ed Sullivan Theater in NYC for a taping of 'The Late Show with David Letterman.'

Wearing Dior, Holmes and Cruise shared a much-talked-about kiss on the red carpet at the premiere of his 2005 blockbuster 'War of the Worlds.'

Holmes showed off her post-baby bliss in Yves Saint Laurent at the 'Mission: Impossible III' fan screening at Paramount Pictures.

Holmes is statuesque and stunning in Armani at the 2007 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.

Goodbye long locks, hello chic bob. Holmes looked radiant in Monique Lhuillier at 2007's 'Lions for Lambs' premiere.

Katie goes black and white at the after-party for opening night of the Broadway play she starred in, 'All My Sons.'

She always looks effortlessly stylish, even on a casual day, pairing a loose bun with wide-legged jeans and plaid shirt.

Katie wears an initial necklace "S" for Suri by Jennifer Meyer (Tobey Maguire's wife) at 2011's 'Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark' premiere.

Holmes did not disappoint at 2013's Costume Institute Gala Benefit, wearing a backless Calvin Klein that draped her body beautifully.

For 2014's Met Gala, Holmes wore a marigold Marchesa dress that definitely fell into the love-it-or-hate-it category. Either way, it was a fashion risk and a true fashionista has to take risks.
