With more than 50 years working in the industry under her belt, Kerri-Anne Kennerley might well be one of Australia’s most well-known television personalities.

And having had plenty of time in the limelight, it’s no wonder the 65-year-old, who is now a host on Studio 10, knows a thing or two about nailing a red carpet.

In fact, this television maven is so well-versed in the art of appearing cool, calm and collected while all eyes (and lenses) are pointed in her direction, that she’s never really come down from her fashion-forward peak – which we’ve been celebrating in all its ogle-worthy glory for decades.

Just scrolling through her Instagram account will tell you as much.

The first thing you’ll see – even before the grid of colourful, fashion-forward outfits worn by the iconic Aussie over the years – is what seems to be her life motto written loud and clear in her bio: “You can never wear too many sequins.”

And if those are KAK’s words to live by, she’s certainly stayed true to them.

To celebrate the brave blonde’s mantra, we’ve rounded up her very best fashion moments over the years.

From sparkly sequins, to daring slits and some very dramatic sleeves, keep scrolling for a style extravaganza that could never be repeated, because Kerri-Anne is most definitely one-of-a-kind.
