A Look Back at Their Three Decades of Fashion The Hollywood Reporter
September 1989
Less than one month after tying the knot, Ocasek and Porizkova attended a TJ Martell music event. The singer donned his signature black sunglasses and a bright blue shirt, while the supermodel wore a beige trench coat with floral cuffs and a double-strand pearl necklace.
September 1996
At the 1996 MTV Video Music Awards, Porizkova kept it sunny in a pale yellow dress and slicked-back hair, while Ocasek dressed up his black suit with a gold watch.
August 2001
Porizkova and Ocasek were pictured at the MTV 20th anniversary party called "MTV20: Live and Almost Legal" in New York in matching fiery ensembles. The model, sporting bangs, chose a "Flashes" lip tee with sheer long sleeves, worn with a double-buckled leather skirt. Ocasek wore a silky red shirt under his black jacket.
March 2003
The couple attended the 18th annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York. His suit jacket with white piping was paired with leather pants for a true rock 'n' roll vibe. Porizkova topped off her little black dress with a brown velvet coat with furry trim and wore black stockings with her pumps to keep cozy.
June 2003
It was a black-and-white affair for the musician and model at the launch of the TV show Living It Up! with Ali & Jack. Ocasek again opted for lighter shades with just a slight tint; she donned a white dress with mid-length sleeves and dainty gold watch.
February 2007
The couple kept it mellow for fashion week. At the Michon Schur fall 2007 fashion show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York, they wore black blazers and pants with a pop of neon each — Ocasek had a turquoise tie and she had a sneaky hot pink neckline.
May 2009
Porizkova stood out at the 2009 Met Gala in a cantaloupe-orange chiffon gown to fit the "Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion" theme. Ocasek arrived with his muse in a silvery tie to contrast with his understated black suit.
February 2010
Porizkova and Ocasek attended the amfAR gala that kicked off New York Fashion Week. She donned a sleeveless black gown with a ruffled skirt, while the Cars frontman broke out of his shell with mixed prints: a dotted skinny tie and striped dress shirt for a bit of fun.
September 2010
They embraced more black-and-white prints at a screening of The Social Network at the School of Visual Arts Theater. She chose an A-line plaid dress and he went for a watercolor-print collared shirt with black denim and shades.
October 2010
This outfit was no stretch for Ocasek, who played it safe in a classic black suit and sunnies. Porizkova was ready for a jazz club with a chic bob and silver metallic cocktail dress for the "Jazz & Models" exhibition opening in Italy. Silver sandals and a clutch completed her evening ensemble.
January 2013
Porizkova again embraced orange in this leather coat-dress accessorized with a mustard silk scarf and a snake-print clutch. Ocasek even experimented for the Girls season two premiere with a puffy leather jacket over a varsity bomber with gold button detailing. And those black nails? So edgy.
April 2013
Proving style gets better with age, the couple wowed at The Hollywood Reporter's 35 Most Powerful People In Media event. She chose a well-tailored, warm-toned paisley dress with a black box clutch; he donned a statement jacket with a purple, silver and orange abstract pattern (complete with fish bones, natch).
November 2013
At the 2013 Museum Gala at the American Museum of Natural History, Porizkova posed in an off-the-shoulder metallic olive gown with chandelier earrings and a black Chanel bag. Her husband also sparkled with a metallic necktie over his striped shirt.
February 2016
The couple brought the glam to the Children's Defense Fund's Beat the Odds Gala with statement accessories: his silky pink-and-black paisley tie and her white fur shawl.
May 2018
Porizkova showed off her blonde 'do at the Art Students League Of NY [STartUP] Gala in an embellished light blue dress, beige clutch and Apple watch. Ocasek smiled on in lightly-tinted shades and his go-to all-black outfit.
