The Keaton Effect: 10 ways to pay homage to the grandmother of coastal looks

Honoree Diane Keaton arrives at American Film Institute's 45th Life Achievement Award Gala Tribute to Diane Keaton at Dolby Theatre on June 8, 2017 in Hollywood, California.

Since Annie Hall, Diane Keaton’s iconic style remains very much in vogue. Recently, she has inspired the TikTok trending coastal grandmother aesthetic. 

However, Keaton’s style legacy is much more than just a trend. She has cultivated an enviable look from her love of neutrals to her fresh take on monochrome. 

Think voluminous silhouettes matched with chunky belts and always topped off with a hat.
