Relive Nene Leakes' Most Memorable Reunion Dresses, from Season 1 to Now
The Real Housewives of Atlanta OG has had quite a reunion fashion evolution throughout the years, and we're looking back at every fabulous moment.
Nene Leakes has captured our hearts through the years on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. The OG has gifted us with countless memes, gifs, one-liners — and of course, incredible fashion inspiration. (Watch the video above for a fashionable refresher.) We all know Nene loves a pair of silky PJs, but when the time comes, she sure knows how to serve a look. And what better time to pull out all the fashion stops than the RHOA reunions?
Reunion fashion has come a long way since the more casual Season 1 sit-down. And while some reunions have blessed us with themes, such as Grecian or Barcelona, others have left room for Nene’s style to evolve and shine. Join us as we take a walk down memory lane and revisit some of Nene’s greatest hits.
Season 1
The first RHOA reunion wasn’t the red carpet event we’ve come to expect today. Reflecting on the look years later, Nene told BravoTV.com, “Oh my god, Season 1 NeNe would need to just do everything over.” But this purple number blessed us with Nene’s infamous “close your legs to married men" speech and we’ll be forever grateful.
Season 2
We got through the drama of another season and Nene turned up at the Season 2 sit-down in a little black dress (which you can never go wrong with, BTW). Can we talk about her accessory game? Strong.
Season 3
Her fierce off the shoulder dress and smoky eye brought the signature Nene energy that we all know and love.
Season 4
OK, NENE. We have arrived. In Season 4, she reminded us all that she is VERY rich and brought that energy into this reunion. Not sure if these Louboutins were meant to be a fashion statement or a light threat to anyone who dared come at her, but she was looking fire.
Season 5
A platinum blonde goddess and the last standing OG housewife going into season 6, Nene graced us with a floor-length Grecian dress and gold strappy sandals.
Season 6
Nene looked pretty in pink in a Marc Bouwer Spring 2014 gown. She styled her blonde locks in a low chignon and accessorized with sparkling baubles.
Season 7
This season's theme was all white. Nene was battling a lot of drama, but still followed dress code in a fierce Dolce & Gabbana power suit paired with Giuseppe Zanotti x Kanye West heels. She paired the plunging look with a sassy side-swept hairstyle and added a pop of color with a bright pink lip.
Season 8
Nene showed up at the Season 8 reunion serving body in a curve-hugging, see-through lace jumpsuit paired with a sleek bob.
Season 10
After a two-season hiatus, Nene brought the fire back as a 'Wife in this saucy red Marchesa lace embroidered tassel dress which she wore with long hair. The theme that year was Barcelona, and we can definitely see that reflected in Nene's eye-catching ensemble.
Season 11
Bye, wig, hello, gorgeous! Though Nene told BravoTV.com backstage ahead of the reunion that she was "in the struggle," that certainly didn't show in her fierce look. Nene paired an elegant asymmetrical gown with $2,495 Giuseppe Zanotti black sandals. Nene's uncharacteristic silence during the reunion was a hot topic after the show aired, but this look spoke for itself.
