12 Celebrities Prove That It’s Chic To Wear An Outfit More Than Once

Have you ever opened your wardrobe and felt like “having nothing to wear”? For most of us, it happens regularly. Some people admit that if they have to put on the same clothes for the important events, it can be even more maddening.
Celebrities are demanded to wear something new every time they hit the red carpet or attend prestigious events. They are even required to update their wardrobe every season when the new collections come out. It is considered a rule that they shouldn’t rock the same clothes twice. However, some have ignored it and confidently stepped out in their old outfits. They have proved not to be immune to wearing the same clothes and have inspired us to mix up old pieces or show us how to recycle them in new ways.
Here are 12 times celebrities weren’t ashamed to wear an outfit more than once.
