Here at Who What Wear, we’re always documenting celebrity style and the trends driven by Generation Z, so why not combine them both? Celebrities have access to the greatest stylists out there and the best of designers’ collections, so there’s no doubt they’ll walk out with a great outfit. And when you add Gen Z’s confidence and playful essence to the equation, you certainly have a winner. It seems like every day another luxury player is adding a young celebrity to their campaigns, and as someone who’s been predicting this for a while, it’s about time they got on board.
From Olivia Rodrigo to Sofia Richie, it seems like the new crowd of cool girls isn’t slowing down their reign in the media. (I’m patiently awaiting Rodrigo’s new album and Richie’s upcoming fashion label.) Amidst their Instagram photo dumps, you’ll find a variety of outfits that include everything from minimalist blazers and vests to eccentric dresses and vintage pieces. Their stylists are certainly putting in overtime. Keep scrolling to see the outfits I’ve saved from my favorite Gen Z celebrities and similar pieces I shopped out sf you want to get the look for yourself.

It’s hard not to look fantastic when you’re a Miu Miu girl, and Sydney Sweeney just wears the brand so well. The simple pieces is easy to recreate on the budget, however, as all you’ll need is a camel blazer and combat boots. (If you are going to invest in one of the pieces in the look though, let it be the bag.)

Sofia Richie’s minimal style has come a long way from the ultra-colorful and loud outfits she’s worn in the past. I’m game with the style change, as it comes with chic outfits just like this one

I thought we were leaving pleated skirts in the past, but Olivia Rodrigo is just reminding me that anything is possible in fashion these days. Plus, if you prefer midi and maxi skirts, making the switch won’t effect how good of an outfit it is.
