3 Celebrities Who Became Fashion It Girls This Summer
Now that summer 2024 is coming to a close, it's a great time to look back at the standout fashion moments of the past several months. In doing so, I found that many of them belong to the three celebrities—two actresses and a singer—I'm here to talk about today.
Celebrity style is a pretty complex thing. When it comes to press tours and award season, there are many elements that go into a celeb's looks. There are lots of cooks in the kitchen, but sometimes, all of the pieces just fall into place, and a style star is born. Perhaps the most important factor that goes into this is the grasp that the celebrity has on their personal style and the confidence with which they wear outfits they may or may not have chosen themselves.
The three celebrities who became the new fashion It girls this summer were none other than Daisy Edgar-Jones, Ayo Edebiri, and Sabrina Carpenter. Each had big things happening in their careers, and each came into their own on red carpets left and right. Scroll on to see some of their best looks during summer 2024 and shop items that match their specific aesthetics.
Daisy Edgar-Jones
We all know and love Edgar-Jones from Normal People, but since her star turn in Twisters—one of the biggest films of the year—she's cemented her It-girl status. Edgar-Jones has been working with stylist Dani Michelle, who also counts Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley as clients. She's proven to be the perfect match for Edgar-Jones, as they've seamlessly gone from the boho aesthetic that's making a strong comeback to sleek, minimal looks throughout the summer. Amid her worldwide press tour for Twisters, Edgar-Jones found the time to pose for our epic July cover. It's safe to say that we're fans.

Ayo Edebiri
Edebiri is having a banner of a year. She's won award after award as Sydney on The Bear, she hosted Saturday Night Live, and she was one of the voices of the wildly popular Inside Out 2. Given all of this and the highly anticipated premiere of season three of The Bear, she's been a fixture on the red carpet. With the help of stylist Danielle Goldberg (who styles fellow cool girls Greta Lee, Kaia Gerber, and Olivia Rodrigo), Edebiri has proven that she's game to take risks and can pull off pretty much anything. The next Ayo Edebiri press tour can't come soon enough.

Sabrina Carpenter
Last but not least, we have Carpenter, who has basically provided our soundtrack for summer 2024 with her hit songs "Espresso" and "Please Please Please." She's also created ripples across the internet over everything that she's worn. The petite queen of Gen Z favors fun, bold looks that don't take themselves too seriously. With the help of her stylist Jason Bolden, Carpenter made Oscar de la Renta look fresh on the Met Gala red carpet, and she regularly dons short hemlines and glamorous brands like Versace and Roberto Cavalli. With the impending release of her new album Short n' Sweet, we can expect her It-girl status to rise from here.

On Carpenter: Loewe dress
On Carpenter: Oscar de la Renta dress
On Carpenter: Miu Miu shirt and skirt; Hermès bag
On Carpenter: Oscar de la Renta dress; Andrea Wazen shoes
