Teresa Giudice is looking back at her past fashion choices — and sky-high hair! — with a fine-tooth comb.
In a new Page Six interview published Tuesday, Feb. 4, the reality star, 52, took a trip down memory lane — or more specifically, her worst The Real Housewives of New Jersey looks.
The first ensemble Giudice recalled? “When I wore that purple dress with my three daughters when they were all in purple," she told Page Six.
The look the star is referring to is an indigo, ruffle-heavy mini dress, which she rocked on the red carpet of a RHONJ season 2 screening party in 2010. To complete the nearly 15-year-old outfit, Giudice rocked a pair of silver pumps, sparkly drop earrings and an ultra-teased ‘do.

And, as she told Page Six, the look wasn’t complete without her family, who accompanied her to the screening. Complementing her silky ensemble, three of her four daughters — Gia, 23, Gabriella, 20, and Milania, 19 attended, while Audriana, 15, was less than a year old at the time — wore purple and blue dresses, while then-husband Joe Giudice wore a simple black suit.
Though the look itself isn’t too bad, Giudice told the outlet, the hair makes her cringe a bit — though she’s “still friends with” the woman behind the sky-high ‘do.
“I went to high school with her,” the mom of four said of her then-hairstylist. When they talk about the look now, the RHONJ star said she is “like, ‘What were you thinking when you did my hair like that?’ ”
“She’s like, ‘I don’t know!’” Giudice added. “The other day I said to her, I’m like, ‘What were you thinking?’ ”

And though she is starting to “embrace” some of the outfits and hairstyles she used to regret, the reality star did admit there’s one fashion choice she simply can’t move past: a feather-heavy ensemble she wore in season 4 of RHONJ.
“Remember one of my interview looks had feathers [on my shoulders]?” Giudice recalled to Page Six, referring to a garment she sported for a confessional in the fourth season, which aired in 2012. But once again, the clothes (a black top with a cleavage-revealing cutout and feathered shoulder) were not the part of the look Giudice regrets most — it’s the hair.
“I was trying to do my hair. I didn’t like it and I was like, ‘Just leave it like that,’” the star recalled, adding that now, “if you look at it, it’s like, ‘Oh my God!’ ”
Giudice's fashion revelations come shortly after she and her daughters showed off their glam current style — a far cry from their color-coordinated 2010 RHONJ screening looks — while celebrating Christmas together in December.
In a family photo shoot, for which the Giudice girls were joined by Teresa's husband Luis Ruelas and her stepson Louie Jr., Milania and Gabriella matched in red, with the former wearing a bodycon dress with a cutout and the latter rocking a strapless, ankle-length gown.
Eldest daughter Gia, wore a white mini dress and Audriana, the youngest, donned an emerald, bodycon dress with a high slit. Their mom, meanwhile, brought her signature Jersey flare in a sexy black dress, big messy bun and bold red lip.
