Sienna Miller On Her Most Iconic Looks & Why She's Finally Ok With Being Called 'Boho' | ELLE UK

Sienna Miller is, undoubtedly, one of the most famous fashion icons of the Noughties, alongside fellow Brits Kate Moss and Alexa Chung.
The ‘Sienna effect’ has seen a legion of sartorial followers experimenting with everything from coin-studded belts and prairie skirts, to denim waistcoats, Ugg boots and wide-brimmed floppy hats.
But while the world might have long dubbed Miller a ‘boho’ style queen, ELLE UK’s May cover star tells us that only now does she approve of the term.
‘I always kind of rebel against a label, but now I’ve accepted it - I was a boho something,’ she admits during her It’s A Mood video, which sees the actor chart her most memorable fashion looks over the last two decades.
Sienna Miller looks back through her most iconic looks in our latest episode of It's A Mood.

This incredible woman has been my primary style inspiration for more than half my life. I opened up the August 2004 issue of W Magazine when I was 15 years old, saw her, became instantaneously transfixed, and have followed her career ever since. I've spent years scouring the globe/internet for pieces Sienna had worn and I wear them often! I discovered and cultivated a true love for Matthew Williamson's designs because of Sienna as well. My wardrobe today is comprised primarily of his pieces. Devastating that he is no longer a fashion designer. I bought a glorious Matthew Williamson dress for my dear Mother to wear to her upcoming birthday. It was her favorite color, green, and she adored it...Sadly, she died in February and as she loved the dress, I made sure she was buried in it. More than anything, I've always admired Sienna's Joie de Vivre. Her spirited nature is something I hope to eventually attain, particularly as I grieve and am just so deeply sad at the moment. I wish I possessed a fraction of her warmth and joy. 🥀

[@dariaefimova1157]

So can relate! Adore her and her style and her vibe. Whenever I don't know whether my outfit is good or not, I ask myself: "Would Sienna wear this?" I and my friend also have a style scale - ten Siennas from ten is a top)) And I want to be blonde again. She inspires me with her looks and sparkly personality for about 15 years already.

[@missmasnika]

Matthew Williamson is the creative director of Givenchy now

[@AvecPoesie]

@@missmasnika You are thinking of Matthew Williams. They are different people. Matthew Williamson is now focusing on interior design, not fashion.

[@BryanCostner]

@@AvecPoesie I'm a fan of Sienna's acting work like American Woman, Burnt, and American Sniper but wow this was really the first time I knew she's actually a style icon and has a trademark of her own. Now I have more respect on her

[@j_cara]

I really love her style too

[@Holmnielsen-]

I love that she is appreciating her past self and not totally trashing herself. People tend to be too hard on themselves! I like a woman with self-esteem.

[@sevenofnine2233]

i love that too.

[@nakifairy]

To this day, obsessed with her hair in Alfie! Also always loved Factory Girl (underrated!!!) - I'm a Warhol/art nerd, and it's so well made, and Sienna nails Edie. Love Sienna always.

[@hellobecky84]

She really channeled Edie, such an incredible performance! And love Alfie, need to rewatch that soon

[@bweb6]

Sienna did a wonderful job as Edie Sedgwick. You could really tell the role meant a lot to her.

[@youcansoften]

Yes to everything !

[@32446]

I love Edie and she did pretty well in that role

[@bronwyn117]

She’s gorgeous, charming, and an amazing actress!

[@BryanCostner]

Super underrated actress, American Woman in my opinion is still her best work

[@ameliel8792]

She was the ultimate style icon for teenage millennials!

[@Brie85V]

Yeah I definitely remember looking up her style on the web and wanting to emulate her cool bohemian vibe. But alas I was not that eccentric and never had the guts to do it in real life and just admired her looks instead.

[@bweb6]

Yes, she was a huge fashion inspiration in the early 2000s. I remember seeing images of Sienna and Kate Moss at various festivals back then and thinking they both looked so effortlessly cool.

[@spaceonion4126]

Omg yes

[@BryanCostner]

Is she tho? I know her mostly as an actress and I've seen some good acting from her particularly Burnt and American Women but yeah never knew she's a model too

[@ameliel8792]

@@Brie85V this comment took me back to the golden years of 2006/7 😀

[@lazaromurad322]

she has always been effortlessly chic and fashionable

[@jo4731]

This didn’t include lots of her incredible fashion moments but actually the mix of stuff and her reactions to it make her seem very lovely and relatable.

[@joulovisabella7567]

She’s iconic. She should be in more films!

[@BryanCostner]

Agree, as an actress she's extremely underrated. She's one of few models who can actually act in a movie. American Woman shows enough range and depth of her as an actress

[@vanjamisevic6079]

I also love the freedom of the 2000s in terms of fashion. Sometimes I went wrong but it was so much fun

[@pizzakrydder2515]

I just love her personality, so natural!

[@tigerlillysbookcorner4492]

Her met gala look last year was everything for me! I just love Sienna so much

[@lilangasoginga]

At one point when I was a kid and print magazines were still a thing, this woman was the moment.

[@madeleine5313]

Love love Sienna! She’s effortlessly chic

[@lorzz4939]

My biggest girl crush for the last two decades - she is just getting cooler and cooler. I remember shaving the side of my hair and doing an undercut after she did it for a role! 💖

[@laurenwojo]

LOVE HER ❤️ Y’all could have totally picked different/better looks because she’s had some iconic ones!

[@nutauf7587]

She's had so many better and more iconic looks you could have included

[@seriousbinch3749]

literally, where was the Factory Girl era???

[@liandiorellacruz2783]

True!

[@elliepolat4721]

She’s so gorgeous love everything about her

[@cookedbyjackie]

Where is Sienna and why don't we see her as often because we need to! She is a style icon and an inspiration!

[@SoneBlink]

Her new show is on netflix now.

[@BryanCostner]

Probably because to avoid paparazzis, that's why she rarely shows up in the public. For the past few years, she has been filed so many lawsuits towards the paparazzi, i heard that they almost hurt her kid when she's walking in the public. I applaud her for that!!

[@cookedbyjackie]

@@BryanCostner oh wow! that is too much. good for her for suing them.

[@BryanCostner]

@@cookedbyjackie and the best part is, she WON her lawsuit back in 2008 for the damage that the paparazzi. That's amazing for her. I really applaud her for trying. She seems like a nice woman and nobody should treated her like shit. The fact that Jude Law had an affair when he's with Sienna, man he doesn't deserved her that much

[@rmannayr2129]

SIENNA IS GORGEOUS!

[@rmannayr2129]

SHE IS SO ICONIC!

[@kellym.6777]

That Met Gala look was perfect!!

[@julieshelley9251]

Sienna seems so genuine, chill and down to earth. Hippy Dippy.. Gorgeous

[@tallulahbankhead21]

She was my style icon in the early 2000’s. Still love her.

[@JeMappelleBecky90]

She’s been my fave style icon in forever 🙏🏻!

[@victoriagadd6831]

Isn’t this woman so lovely and so Englishly understated. Such class.

[@emzyiri2876]

Class … she had an open affair with a married man with a family. Good clothes but she is not classy

[@jdell8441]

My ultimate style icon for literally the past twenty years of my life.

[@BoomsRiddico4868]

She is so lovely and natural!

[@mag5020]

Ive always adored her. Effortlessly stylish and and seems very down to Earth. 👑

[@michelles2299]

Being 21 in London I the early 2000s was the best

[@larissabarbara9506]

She's sooooo prettyyy and natural!

[@aliciachaparrouceda2252]

“I hate an abreved word”😂😂💕👍🏼

[@urbangesha1666]

I love this woman now because she HAS PERSONALITY, STYLE and one of the most genuinely beautiful face in the world 🤗😘

God this was so nostalgic for me as a millennial who was obsessed with buying fashion magazines as a teenager

[@worthigirl2946]

Excellent. Thank you SiEnna.

She has something very special. I love the way she's not full of herself and is just 'me'.

Love her!

[@paulmaddison8556]

when you walk through a storm, you will never walk alone

[@antcar3330]

I remember when Pshemko cut your fringe that day in the shop, such a classy lady. X0X

[@happygoluckystar8069]

Wow.. she is amazing! 🥰 I always liked her for her tallent, but now knowing how lovely personality she has …. Wonderful woman! Her style is an „alien” to me, I would never ever follow Sienna’s style. but I truly adore her personality. 👏👏👏

[@maggiecollins1099]

she had more than 1 good movie I love her movies, ....

[@Glametalbarbie]

She’s still the only “ influencer “ I follow ❤

[@pepitapaloma1]

She is cute beautiful nice and stylish, a talented actress but overall she seems a nice person.

[@rosemarymccarron3887]

I've been wearing boho all my life regardless of it being in or out of season.

[@cb9825]

Why would you choose mostly boring outfits? She had so many others

[@nakifairy]

Right? Where's the ICONIC gold Burberry Met Gala look?

[@user-uh6vw4pn6s]

She is so nice! Loved her style for over a decade. She was born into loads of luck from all respects, however, she has got something most rich kids don't by far, that sth....and also instead of easily being a socialite effortlessly mixing with celebrities and just having a party of a life..😉 doing nothing in life she chose acting and a career. I see the privilege everywhere (dad, mom, entourage..) and I clearly recognise that she could go about her career as in a playground ("so what if nothing works out" kind of attitude..) giver the family background she turned out different. The truth is he never had to cope with any of the stuff lots of immensely successful actors had to in their prime years yet she' s still got sth original and genuine. Like her 👍

[@margheritaparty4745]

Mon inspiration favorite 💙

[@agata2556]

She is so chic love her ❤❤❤ anybody knows the brand of her denim shirt?😍it gorgeous

[@hfsq19]

The ultimate It girl of 2000s!!!!

[@constanzafreire4918]

Love Sienna, someone knows the denim shirt she is wearing?

[@PurushaDesa]

Beautiful as ever and chameleon like when she wants to be. (I did a double take when realising she was the wife in _Foxcatcher_ .)

[@brontec9769]

haha she's awesome. Love the self-deprecating reflection on her pregnancy outfit.

[@Holmnielsen-]

8:30 I like the belt

[@i.1213]

She has that “girl look” that is captivating…

[@natashagreen7732]

Like her

sorry but these are not the most iconic looks of the amazing sienna…

I'M SAD OKAY!!!!!!!!!!!

Ikr .?! 😆 Love Maddy

[@clionam9171]

[@beautybites1393]

She's one of the great self styled icons - surprised you would include mostly missteps??! And frankly, embarrass her. Not cool, Elle UK

[@markmiller6751]

One of my favorite actresses. Unfortunately, I like Eames lounge chairs and modern furniture and houses.

[@georgiahick4311]

She looks so much like Naomi Watts here!

[@moonovernight9834]

come on,elle, she had some many better looks than the one's you showed.

[@mustakes]

❌⭕️❌⭕️

[@maliktheking25]

She got a sylyie haircut
