Addison Rae's street style swings towards a certain 'loosely sporty cool-girl' vibe, with the star typically opting for flattering crop tops, oversized graphic T-shirts, printed loungewear and the occasional belted blazer dress.
In 2020, it was revealed that Addison was TikTok's highest earning star and her success on the platform has meant that she has worked commercially with Reebok, Hollister and American Eagle.
"I love a sheer mesh, and fishnets layered under a dress. It feels sexy without being too much. I’m also wearing a lot of tighter-fitting clothes at the moment as I feel like they hold me in and make me feel secure. And I’m obsessed with slip dresses: they’re so timeless and classy," Addison told Elle earlier this year.
And when it comes to her personal style icons, she adores Hollywood royalty Angelina Jolie. "I love her so much, everything she does – if I met her in real life I just wouldn't know what to say. She’s so enticing and mysterious. Monica Bellucci has also been a really big style influence for me recently. I love her classic looks: classy, but a little bit edgy. And Kate Moss, obviously, even though our body types are a little different."
