Billie Eilish’s Skintight Look Shocks Fans Who Say She ‘Looks Completely Different’ After Ditching Her Signature Baggy Looks
Billie Eilish stepped out in Los Angeles wearing a head-turning look that sharply contrasted with her signature baggy style.
The Grammy-winning “Birds of a Feather” singer was photographed by paparazzi after enjoying a quiet horseback ride over the weekend, and the images of her evolving look and the transformation stopped some fans in their tracks.
Fresh off Thanksgiving with her family, the 23-year-old traded her oversized silhouettes for a skintight equestrian outfit — a high-neck, long-sleeved top paired with fitted riding pants and boots. Her black hair was pulled back in a simple ponytail, and with barely a hint of makeup, she looked rested and unbothered as she prepared for a peaceful day outdoors.
Daily Mail readers had plenty to say, preferring Eilish’s new figure-hugging look over her old baggy wardrobe.
“Look how pretty she looks when not in her Hobo Chic mask,” one person wrote.
Others followed by praising the singer’s makeup-free look and her weight loss over the years. Two said, “She’s lost a bit of weight,” and “Holy cow she looks almost normal.”
Someone added, “Wow, the first time I’ve ever seen her appear normal!” while another insisted, “Wow she looks completely different. Better looking though.”
Another summed it up simply: “This is the best she has ever looked. Natural and normal wow.”
For longtime fans, the shock wasn’t that Billie looked good — it’s that she’s finally letting the world see more of the body she once hid under layers of fabric.
The singer has been candid about her difficult relationship with her appearance, recalling the moment someone told her mother she “could be a model if she just lost weight” when she was only 12, she said in an interview with Complex.
In later interviews, Eilish admitted, “I only started wearing baggy clothes because of my body,” and revealed that years ago, she was barely eating. It was a time she now recognizes as deeply unhealthy, even when the world assumed she was simply expressing her unique style.
She’s also spoken openly about the way strangers dissected her figure, even under oversized fits. “Nobody can have an opinion because they haven’t seen what’s underneath,” she once said in a Calvin Klein ad in 2019, according to Teen Vogue, explaining that the anonymity her clothes provided felt like protection.
That protection became even more important after a tank-top photo went viral, prompting her to create the short film “NOT MY RESPONSIBILITY,” where she addressed the constant commentary on her shape.
“About my body, some people hate what I wear, some people praise it,” she said in the project. “I feel your stares, I disapprove.”
Still, even with the ups and downs, Billie continued pushing toward a healthier lifestyle.
She went through a period of intense fitness, later admitting that though she was stronger and thinner than ever, she was “extremely unhappy” and didn’t yet understand why. By 2022, she embraced a more balanced approach, saying working out consistently gave her confidence and helped her move better on stage.

That steadier energy showed up again in September 2025, when she posted a series of selfies — including two unexpected bikini shots — that racked up nearly 5 million likes. In one, she held her phone high above her head in a dark-blue halter two-piece, squinting in the sun; in another, she floated in the water, her face relaxed as she gazed off to the side.
Fans filled the comments with admiration, including one who wrote, “A tomboy with a body like this? Jesus have mercy on me.”
Now, with her skintight riding look going viral, some are connecting the dots: Billie seems to be shedding more than baggy layers — she’s stepping further into her own comfort, her own evolution, and her own image.
And based on the reactions, plenty of people are more than ready to see her shine in whatever silhouette she chooses next.
