We can all agree that TikTok has been the revolution of the fashion industry. However, that isn’t to dismiss the work of other influential areas; fashion week, high-street brands, and Love Island promotion brand deals. But everybody can see TikTok is the driving force behind it all. A question remains, though. Who is the pioneer of this TikTok movement?

It is clear that her style is more on the luxury side of the market

While I believe her modern-chic styling approach freshens up the algorithms, others label her as inconsiderate, ignorant, and they “can’t believe this isn’t a joke.” Although her bank account figures may be a lot higher than mine, her passion for “life and style” is just why I enjoy her videos. But, if her videos are labelled as too ‘controversial’ and not everybody is jumping on the bandwagon, who is our nominated TikTok pioneer?

Her use of colour palettes and merging patterns is what equally excites and terrifies me

Well, nobody does it quite like Arabella, or @lilrotini on TikTok. Amassing 11.7 million views for her ability to style a garbage bag and somewhat pull it off. Her unique approach to styling ‘impossible items’ or giving out her own tips has led her account to amass 1.5 million followers. Quite frankly, I adore her, as does the rest of Gen-Z struggling to maintain their student loan with passion for fashion. Maybe it’s that she looks like she belongs in a Tim Burton production instead of on my for you page. But, her use of colour palettes and merging patterns is what equally excites and terrifies me. I wish I had the courage to explore fashion as she does.

Who knows, maybe I’ll turn up to my next lecture in a garbage bag too.
