Across the four fashion capitals—New York, 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs Second Chance Bracket shirt London, Milan and Paris—a total of 299 designers showcased their collections, 19 new to the Fashion Month circuit, compared to 247 for spring/summer 2023 (credit to the fashion data analysts at Tagwalk for doing these calculations). Growth is a good thing, especially in creative industries, but I found this hard to believe, personally. Off the top of my head, I can think of a handful of designers who couldn’t secure budget to show, or whose brands were lost to greater financial struggles (I still can’t move on from the Christopher Kane-shaped hole that permeated the London schedule). With growth always comes change, and perhaps one of the biggest this season came in the form of a renunciation. Alexander McQueen’s Creative Director Sarah Burton announced that the spring/summer 2024 collection would be her last after 26 years at the brand. Burton had respectfully taken the helm after the British institution’s iconic and groundbreaking founder Lee Alexander McQueen passed away in 2010, with her subsequent collections serving as a love letter to his influence and precociousness. Cate Blanchett attended, Naomi Campbell walked and a standing ovation rang out during the final, tender moments of Paris Fashion Week.

If you’re not on fashion TikTok yet, 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs Second Chance Bracket shirt consider this your sign to start scrolling. The style side of the app has quickly become my go-to resource for outfit ideas and I’ve racked up the screenshots to show for it. I could go on and on about some of the best style moments on TikTok right now (and I have) but today I need to bring your attention to one creator, in particular, whose outfit videos I can’t stop watching. Laura Hoden, otherwise known as her handle @imlauranotlauren on the app, has gone viral for her series “Celeb style on a size 10” where she re-creates memorable celebrity street style moments with pieces in her own closet. The concept of DIY-ing a celeb outfit is hardly novel, but I was immediately impressed with the level of accuracy that Hoden’s outfits achieve (she nails the overall silhouette, from the color scheme to how each piece fits), and while an exact re-creation of any A-list ‘fit can easily put my bank account into overdraft, Hoden manages to do so with affordable favorites like H&M and Zara. “I wanted to prove a point that size has nothing to do with having style,” she explained when I asked her about what inspired this series in the first place. “You don’t need the celebrity body (or budget!) to re-create these looks.” As a firm believer that style should be accessible to everyone, I couldn’t agree more. She continued, “I have seen a lot of discourse on social media of women feeling like they couldn’t dress a certain way because they weren’t a smaller size—and that hurts to see. I have lived my entire adult life between a size 10 to a size 16 and have never let my body stop me from having confidence in what I wear.”. Celebrity street style outfits are, of course, notoriously tricky (see pelvic cutouts, ultra low-rise hems, and see-through fabrics) but Hoden has an eye for the ones that she can recreate with the pieces that are already sitting in her own closet, rather than outfits that rely on shopping hyper-specific trends. Outfits from the likes of Hailey Bieber, Elsa Hosk, and Emily Ratajkowski feature regularly on her channel as they tend to fit her casual, minimal, and menswear-inspired style the most. Ahead, see the original celebrity inspiration along with Hoden’s DIY version and, of course, shop the pieces you’d need to re-create each look for yourself.
