Charli XCX unveils a quintet of raw, unapologetic covers for POP Magazine’s Autumn/Winter 2025 issue, capturing her in an edgy, stripped-back mood.
In a bold move that perfectly encapsulates her current “brat” aesthetic, Charli XCX is the face of POP Magazine’s latest issue, shot by renowned photographer Alasdair McLellan. The visuals are a stark departure from polished pop glamour, instead leaning into a grungier, more rebellious vibe that has become her signature.
The outfit, or what’s visible of it, channels a cool, disaffected energy. She wears a black, sleeveless, high-neck dress or top. The fabric appears to be a sleek, matte material, possibly leather or latex, giving the look a subtly fetishistic, rock-and-roll edge. The simplicity of the garment is key, allowing the styling to take center stage. The dress is paired with a pair of long, black gloves, extending past the elbow and creating a severe, elongated line that complements the high neckline.
The styling cohesion is where the look truly comes alive. Her dark hair is slicked back into a severe, wet-look style. Her makeup is sharp and minimal, featuring a bold, angular eyeliner and lightly defined brows that emphasize her fierce expression. There’s a subtle sheen on her lips that adds a hint of polish to the otherwise rough-and-tumble aesthetic. The overall attitude is one of defiant confidence—she stands with a poised, direct gaze, challenging the viewer to look away. It’s a powerful, almost menacing portrait of a pop star fully in control of her image.
The entire shoot taps into the “messy” fashion movement and indie sleaze revival that Charli XCX has helped to spearhead. It’s a look that feels both of the moment and utterly timeless, a perfect fusion of punk attitude and high-fashion sensibility. This isn’t just a photoshoot; it’s a manifesto on modern celebrity style .
Addison Rae, in the midst of her global “The Addison Tour,” debuts an electric stage look that combines rave culture with high-fashion drama.
Addison Rae’s transformation from a social media sensation to a legitimate pop powerhouse is now in full swing, and her debut tour is the ultimate visual manifesto. Captured in a moment of pure performance, her stage look is a deliberate departure from the casual, everyday celebrity fashion, embracing a vibrant, maximalist aesthetic that’s both daring and theatrical. The photos from her tour are credited to photographer Samir Hussein.
The outfit is a study in texture and bold color blocking. The core of the look is a two-piece set, featuring a structured, bright orange-red bralette and a vibrant orange-red mini skirt. The top has a subtle pleat or ridge design, while the skirt is smooth, with a slightly fluted silhouette. But the real showstopper is the use of neon green and highlighter yellow, which are featured in a thin strap under the bralette and on the suspender clips on her stockings. This intentional clash of colors creates a dynamic, high-energy visual that’s perfect for the stage.
The accessories are what elevate the ensemble from a simple dance outfit to a carefully styled moment. A pair of neon yellow fishnet stockings with suspender clips add a playful, punk-inspired texture to the look. She also wears a black, high-gloss baker boy cap, which adds a masculine, edgy contrast to the very feminine, form-fitting silhouette. Her pose—with a backward glance, a slight hip pop, and one hand on her hat—conveys a mood of flirtatious rebellion, as if daring the audience to keep up with her.
This look is a clever nod to the “Y2K” aesthetic and “indie sleaze” revival. It’s a style that embraces bold, mismatched, and chaotic elements, celebrating the spirit of pop icons like Britney Spears and Lady Gaga, whom Addison herself mentions in her song “Money Is Everything”. This tour is a declaration of her full creative control, with her celebrity style serving as the visual soundtrack.
