40 Vintage Photos Of Stevie Nicks, The 1970s’ Ultimate Summer Beauty

Stevie Nicks is the definitive rock star: she’s talented, fashionable and beautiful. But she’s also one of a kind. The singer’s unique sense of style has enchanted fans ever since she shot to fame in the 1970s. And these rare photos show just how Nicks’ iconic look has evolved over the years.

40. Among flowers

Nicks posted this dreamy looking throwback photo – one of many old Polaroids she’d found in a box – on Twitter in 2014. Nicks added the words, “Well, this is no ticket to dream land, a garden for feelings to grow in as I run to the door.” It’s a fitting caption for a poetic image. 

39. With Christine McVie

Nicks was always great friends with Christine McVie: her only female bandmate in Fleetwood Mac. So, the former was devastated when she left the group in 1998. Nicks told Vulture magazine in 2013 that the band wasn’t nearly “as fun” without McVie, but she totally supported her decision to leave.

38. Playing the tambourine

If there’s one instrument associated with Stevie Nicks, it’s the tambourine. Here, she is playing it on stage in October 1977 and looking utterly lost in the music. Fans of Nicks have adopted the tambourine as a symbol for themselves too, so you’ll find plenty of tambourine tattoos in Fleetwood Mac fandom.

37. With Mick Fleetwood

In this picture, Nicks is alongside the man who gave Fleetwood Mac its name. They had a mad, short-lived relationship which yep, started off as an affair. Mick Fleetwood was a married man when he and Nicks got together during a tour in 1977. The latter has some regrets about it now, but she still considers him one of the loves of her life.
