Perhaps this is also the point that many fans feel that the shape is not amazing enough, but it is indeed the trend of contemporary young people to wear today.

In recent years, sneakers have also become a new culture, representing a more interesting (and expensive) trend than pure luxury.

In 2018, the turnover of the secondary market of sneakers has reached 60 billion yuan.

Luxury brands are competing for the sneaker market, and it is common for models to pose for magazine covers wearing sneakers, which was almost impossible in the fashion world a decade ago.

Look at Kylie Jenner's Instagram, the frequency of sneakers is also very high, almost all of them are hot in the fashion circle.

Stylists also used the trend in their new show, with Whitney Peak, who has been dubbed Blair's heir apparent, wearing an Adidas x Ivy Park outfit with her school uniform.

For example, the eye-catching flat-cut beautiful girl Jordan Alexander's two sets of modeling have under-knee boots and underarm bags, which are also the most popular single products in the past two years.

Compared to the old version of Gossip Girl, the new look is less glamorous, but it's actually more current. This is where stylists get creative.

Clothes that don't want to be defined

McKinsey, a well-known management consulting firm, published a survey on Generation Z in 2018. The key to dealing with Gen Z is not to bind them in a stereotypical way.

This is a generation with a very fluid sense of self, and they are still searching for themselves, so they can also be called "identity nomads."

So take a closer look at the casting and evolution of the new version of Gossip Girl and you'll find: you can't define them.

For example, in the old version of Gossip Girl, the only Ivy League schools were rich girls with romantic curls and well-behaved girls.

But in the new version, girls with dreadlocks and socks that match high heels can also be the center of conversation.

This selection of roles is also very interesting, in addition to the selection of different ethnic actors, but also joined a lot of LGBT drama, more in line with the current society.

The young actors themselves are also very much in line with the theme of "unlimited", and their identities in real life are also diverse.

For example, Emily Alyn Lind, the young actress who plays the female lead, was born in 2002. She began to work in movies at the age of six. In addition to acting, she is also a singer and often shares her singing and playing on Instagram.

Pink flathead Evan Mock is from Hawaii. He is not only a skateboarder, but also a photographer who once shot Travis Scott's concert, and a model who walked the Louis Vuitton show.

He recently starred in a commercial for Justin Bieber's Drew House label, and the new version of Gossip Girl is his acting debut.

Given the identity of the new generation, stylists don't have a fixed style for each character, as they used to.

So you'll see that a cool girl with a buzz cut can also be elegant and demure in a black dress.

Wearing a suit with white sneakers when entering a high-end restaurant is also a youthful attitude, less inhibited and more relaxed.

In an age of social media, where diversity and individuality are respected and valued, let's hope that maybe the new Gossip Girl will give us something to think about beyond gossip and beautiful clothes.

Of course, it has to be admitted that the old "Gossip Girl" style is more distinct --

So, Queen B's retro sweet, Queen S sexy free and easy, they have become irreplaceable classics.

Thirteen years later, our nostalgia for the old "Gossip Girl" may not come from the dazzling luxury clothes, nor from the luxurious upper society.

We miss it, is to miss the longing for good feelings of us, perhaps friendship, is love.

Maybe I miss the small self who lies in front of the computer waiting to watch the drama and is full of longing for the outside world.
