This superstar has spent decades in the spotlight - and now, she's making a fashionable comeback that's shocked her fans.

Lindsay Lohan, 38, went from being America's sweetheart as a Disney star to experiencing many turbulent years in the public eye - becoming a tabloid regular for her party girl ways.

Now, she's back in the spotlight after spending years in Dubai. This time, she's embracing designer labels and her fans are all about her triumphant return, cheekily nicknaming it the Lohannaissance. 

As the former child star preps for Freakier Friday, the follow-up to her 2003 film, she's been doing press and stunning the public with her new look. 

Lindsay's chic, sleek new designer outfits are a departure from her super short denim miniskirts, trucker hats, and Juicy Couture sweatsuits, and it's a far cry from her more boho chic ensembles in Mykonos. 

Now, Lindsay is all about brands like Balmain, Balenciaga, and Jil Sander as her fans are praising her 'stunning' fashion transformation on Instagram.

As Lindsay promotes her various projects, she's been opting for sleek silhouettes and just the right amount of Hollywood glamour. 

The Mean Girls star looked as elegant as ever when she appeared at the 2024 Disney Legends Awards Ceremony in Anaheim, California, appearing in a draped seafoam gown by Jil Sander. 

Lindsay's devoted millennial fans loved the subtle pastel style, commenting on Instagram, 'This is how you end up looking once you prioritize your health and happiness.' 

Other fans called the Parent Trap star 'stunning' and 'a vision' in green. 

LiLo has been experimenting with her personal style, showing off Balmain black shorts and a deconstructed button-down, which her Instagram followers dubbed 'beyond immaculate.' 

And the former child star made a splash at the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscar Party on March 10 while wearing a custom sparkling silver Balenciaga gown that exuded Old Hollywood glamour as she walked the carpet alongside husband Bader Shammas. 

Much of the New York native's transformation has been with help from celebrity stylists. 

The Netflix star was previously working with Zendaya's superstar stylist and image architect Law Roach, who was behind her original fashion transformation. 

Lindsay became a tabloid regular for her party girl ways, and was often seen DJing at clubs or spilling out of cabs with celebrity friends like Paris Hilton
