In “Brat Summer: The Bold and Rebellious Trend of Gen Z,” Charli XCX explores the emergence of the Brat Summer trend.

Charli said Brat Summer represents “you’re that messy girl who loves to party and says dumb things sometimes on TikTok. That’s Brat.”

This trend combines a rebellious attitude with a retro early 2000s fashion, reflecting a carefree yet self-reflective spirit.

The Brat aesthetic includes edgy tops, leather attire, bold accessories, and a messy look, embodying a party-girl vibe with a touch of sophistication.
