The 22-year-old is establishing herself as a fashion wildcard to-watch.
Addison Rae’s intro to mainstream is stuff of early 2020’s lore. The 22-year-old Louisiana native first appeared on our radar as a dancing TikTok star in 2019, quickly rising the ranks as one of the most followed creators on the platform alongside the likes of fellow sister duo Charli and Dixie D’Amelio. But she soon put her Hype House days behind to add more to her resume, transitioning from our FYPs to the big screen in Netflix’s He’s All That and tapping into her musicality. After debuting with her single “Obsessed,” she returned with her first album AR and trust, this is just the beginning.
Her long list of achievements isn’t the only thing expanding, but her personal style as well. Compared to her early days on the red carpet, Addison Rae’s style took a sharp turn in 2020, opting for bolder and brighter silhouettes that complement her bubbly persona. She’s worked alongside stylists like Law Roach to sister duo Chloe and Chenelle to experiment with her look, and now with a slew of fashion partnerships under her belt, her transition to the fashion world just makes sense.
