21 Budding Style Stars to Watch in 2024

We're always on the lookout for the next big fashion darling: an individual that becomes known for their innate style and directional sartorial choices, whether on or off the red carpet, and makes brands work overtime to dress them (or to sign them in an exclusive deal).

In 2023, young actors like Lola Tung of "The Summer I Turned Pretty" and Rachel Zegler of "The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes" wasted no time showing off their knack for great clothes, wearing labels like Balmain, Sandy Liang and Alexander McQueen throughout the year, just to name a few. (Zegler was just named a Dior ambassador — so, clearly, people are paying attention.) Men like Travis Kelce and Troye Sivan also stole the spotlight with their style, going beyond the boundaries of a predictable black suit, playing with color and capturing the fashion spotlight.

Rounding out the group of athletes, actors and other creators we predict will only get bigger in 2024, several female rappers — including JT of City Girls, Doechii and Ice Spice — presented particularly strong cases for style stardom this year, placing themselves firmly on the "For Your Consideration" list.

Below, see our predictions for the style stars to watch in 2024. You'll thank us later.
