Sporting bleach blond hair and a sparkling, embellished dress during a day out in New York, the pop singer's outfit was a stunning flashback to her heady days with former lover, the late INXS star Michael Hutchence.

Now and then: decades on, Kylie still rocks a short dress

Minogue first tried out the look in 1989 after shedding her dowdy Neighbours image, and at 38, proved she can still turn heads in a mini.

The outfit is in keeping with the style chameleon's current trend towards bold, colourful fashion.

While she may be under a gloomy shadow when it comes to romance, her wardrobe couldn't be brighter.

Sweetness and light: Kylie dazzles in bold, blue numbers

Minogue has consistently stepped out in a rainbow of numbers since her heart-breaking split from long-term love Olivier Martinez, and continued the trend right though the controversy surrounding her relationship with married director Alexander Dahm.

The star - who is currently working on a new album, the first since her breast cancer battle - countered rumours of an affair with Dahm, whose wife is 8 months pregnant.

She said: "I have never been unfaithful to a partner and would find it completely immoral to be involved with a married man."

Despite her troubled private life, the perennial showgirl's fashion statements make one thing clear - Miss Minogue can't help but look on the bright side.
