Erika Kirk Outfits That Had More Shine Than A Disco Ball

Ever since Erika Kirk gained notoriety in the pageant circle and later for her romance with the late Charlie Kirk, she's made no apology for her love of sparkles. The Turning Point USA CEO has rocked multiple glittering garments over the years, and even shared a slideshow of herself wearing extravagantly embellished looks on Instagram in 2014. The video depicted her in various eye-catching pieces, including a plunging black-and-white dress, a halter-neck champagne number, and a sultry red ensemble. But, surprisingly, Kirk's wardrobe hasn't always been packed with shiny pieces.

Kirk's transformation included an early period where she wasn't interested in sparkles at all. "[I was] super tomboy, didn't like dresses. Everyone thought I was a little boy because I wore Jordans and all these different types of athletic clothes," she recalled to Miss USA. But as she grew older, her more feminine side began to rear its head. "I think I always had that girly girl within me," she admitted, despite once cutting her hair super short because she and her mom didn't want the upkeep of continually brushing long locks. This revelation has been obvious in her clothing, as Kirk has worn so many outfits that had more shine than a disco ball.

In 2025, Erika Kirk embraced head-to-toe jewel tone sparkles in a deep green sequin number for the 2025 Fox Nation Patriot Awards. The star's long dress with exaggerated shoulder pads glittered all over thanks to the many stage lights while highlighting her enviable figure. It also put Kirk firmly on trend, as the Elphaba-esque shade had been everywhere thanks to the release of "Wicked" the year prior and the sequel "Wicked: For Good" that year. This structured look was far from one of Kirk's outfits that missed the mark.

At the Turning Point USA Inaugural-Eve Ball in 2025, Erika Kirk embraced the sheer clothing trend that had been huge since 2023. She wore an ornate, long sleeve maxi dress that had nude lining on one half and white material from the right side of her waist down. Of course, in keeping with Kirk's signature style, she also brought plenty of shine via the dress's glittering, silver pattern and the feminine, pink floral embellishments over her left shoulder.

Erika Kirk shared a photo from a professional photoshoot with Rain Cosmetics on Instagram in 2013. The star posed in glamorous, shiny red lipstick and a halterneck black-and-white dress which featured multiple large circular sequins all over. The flamboyant, spicy gown appeared to be slightly sheer over her torso and featured a thigh-high slit on the left side which showed off her impressive tan as she posed in front of a plain white background.

Erika Kirk raised a few eyebrows in late 2025 when she put a sparkly twist on power dressing for a Turning Point USA event. The divisive political figure appeared on stage in a dark gold sequin matching blazer and pants set layered over a black top. The flashy number seriously sparkled as Kirk spoke on stage, reminding us of the gold jumpsuit Margot Robbie sported in "Barbie."

During a 2014 pageant, Erika Kirk's dress almost blinded us thanks to its chunky jewels. The then-pageant queen posed in a strapless, white mini dress with a long train and wispy feathers all the way up her legs and along the skirt. The bodice, which featured corset-style boning down her torso, was covered in large embellishments. Kirk shared the snap on Instagram and her followers couldn't get enough of her glitzy style. "Omg your dress!!!!!!!!" one Instagram user commented.

In 2012, Erika Kirk rocked one of her leggiest looks to date — a dark grey mini dress with long sleeves. The outfit seriously sparkled as she struck a pose with one of her fellow beauty queens, but what really set the shiny number off was her large crown and Miss Arizona USA sash. The Instagram upload showed that the pageant competitor knew how to bring a glamorous edge to her ensemble (not that she needed it).

Erika Kirk, who doesn't ditch the glam very often, gave the world another look at her pageant poses and glitzy dresses in a photoshoot image shared to Instagram in 2012. Kirk stunned as she stood in front of a wooden panel background wearing her Miss Arizona crown and sash with an embellished white dress. The ensemble featured sparkly beading all the way down the white lace material, but had extra shimmer around her middle thanks to the ornate detail next to the large waist cut-outs.

In 2021, Erika Kirk packed on the sparkle again at what appeared to be a party to celebrate her and Charlie Kirk's wedding as well as Turning Point USA's ninth anniversary. In the photo, Kirk can be seen posing in a strapless wedding dress that featured sheer, ivory tiers that reached the floor, as well as plenty of silver bling over her torso. The top of the dress made a serious statement thanks to the bold, shiny embellishments all over the bustier, while the matching belt highlighted her waist, giving Kirk extra sparkle as she smiled from ear to ear.
