Meet the Ghosts of Red Carpets Past.

Celebrities are always sauntering down red carpets looking stunning, in designer clothes and faces full of expertly-applied make-up.

However, the 1980s and ’90s were a simpler time, a time when personal stylists weren’t de rigeur and a can of hairspray could turn your hair from boring to bouffant with a few flicks of a teasing comb.

Then of course, there’s the early 2000s, when the height of fashion was low slung jeans and platform thongs.

We’ve dredged back through the records to find some very stylish Hollywood types’ first appearance on the red carpet, in all their cringeworthy glory.

Some of them are obvious, but some are barely recognisable. See if you can pick ’em.

Just in case you didn't know she was from the block, the bandanna should clear that up.
