When it comes to fashion, no one does it like singer, actress, model and style stunner Grace Jones. Since she burst onto the scene as a model in the late 1970s, she’s never been afraid to push boundaries with her looks. And at 76, she’s showing no signs of slowing down.

Jones’ creativity could also be seen in her music, recording disco, reggae, new wave and pop singles. She was a regular fixture at the legendary Studio 54 nightclub in New York City and the girl everyone wanted to make an appearance at their party.

In honor of her 76 birthday, we look back at some of our favorite Grace Jones looks through the years.
