With Past Lives coming out, Greta Lee is back on my radar. I remember seeing her first in Girls as the rare Asian American actress on TV, then her iconic role as Maxine in Russian Doll…a win for Asians with bob haircuts everywhere!

Back in the late 2010s I followed her on Instagram before she deleted it sometime in 2019. I loved her personal style—she was one of the first celebrities I saw wear Sandy Liang.

I wanted to do a deep dive into her personal style but it was difficult to find photos because of her wiped social media. She’s quite mysterious. She’s always rocked a strong thick eyebrow. Here are some of my favorite looks from Greta over the years.

a blurry photo from her deleted IG, with the unmistakable leopard print collar of a sandy fleece.

an old sandy dress for the crazy rich asians premiere. shoes look like mnz. she doesn’t shy away from color.

more old sandy. the fruits dress print. these pop up on TRR every once in a while.

modeling for a sandy x two bridges sweatsuit collab with her bebe.

greta on the right in monochrome whites and bold pops of warm colors. i appreciate the fringe detail on the belted pants. the bag looks like simon miller, such an it bag in the late 2010s need supply era. the red leather western boots are so fun. honestly, I think without the layered necklaces, this is an outfit that feels fresh and interesting today.
