With the rise of men who identify as "babygirl", their unique style choices have begun to make an impact on men's fashion trends.
Every now and then we hear new terms being introduced into fashion that we are probably encountering for the first time. Indeed, it is difficult to be familiar with each new term that is added and signals a new trend. But if you love fashion and want to be up-to-date, all you have to do is follow its pace, however fast it may be.
The term "babygirl" became popular in 2024 and men who were characterized in this way started a trend that had a significant impact on fashion. Harry Styles is considered the king of this genre, but other celebrities such as Barry Keoghan and Jacob Elordi have also joined the trend. What these men have in common is that they are universally loved by the internet and their fans would even love to be in a relationship with them.
There is no clear definition of what makes a man a "babygirl" but it seems to have more to do with the overall vibe that a celebrity exudes. These men are not only physically attractive but also have a certain interesting character and style. They break social stereotypes with their behavior and fashion choices, and are not afraid to express their sensitivity or be tender, regardless of their gender identity. In simple terms, they are loved by the public and are not restricted by traditional masculine norms.
Although the label may be relatively new, the men mentioned above have been recognized as fashion icons for some years. Nowadays, they seem to have taken over men's fashion, and this trend is also endorsed by established fashion media and big fashion houses that choose to dress them.
So, what is their fashion style, and how do they influence it? These men use the already blurred lines between masculinity and femininity to their advantage, rejecting traditional gender boundaries and incorporating more feminine pieces into their wardrobe. We can recall the Golden Globes and Jacob Elordi's fashion looks where he wore women's accessories and jewelry.
For Vogue, being interesting doesn't equate to being feminine, and this view has been broadened largely thanks to the aforementioned men. A new era has begun for the concept of masculinity and men's fashion, and it's time to break the boundaries of your beliefs and wear what you like - just like the "babygirl" male celebrities.
