How Mia Regan became a Gen Z fashion icon: Romeo Beckham’s girlfriend is an Instagram influencer who’s mastered Y2K style, from her denim capsule collection with Victoria Beckham to bringing Crocs back
Mia Regan’s Instagram account is a gold mine for the fashion conscious.
The 20-year-old British model has become an icon for Gen Z fashion with her amazing sense of style and a colourful Instagram profile full of unique ensembles.
Here’s why she has become the ultimate Gen Z fashion icon …
Mia Regan has an amazing sense of style
To start with, it doesn’t matter if you own a wardrobe full of trendy pieces if you don’t know how to put an outfit together. It’s hard to incorporate blues, yellows, reds and purple in a single outfit without looking like a candy wrapper; even harder if you cannot figure out how to pick the right items to make those colours work.
Luckily, the young model has been blessed with a keen eye for the Y2K aesthetic and surprises her fans with one strange (in a good way) colour combination on top of another.
In this particular outfit, Regan combined Loewe’s multicoloured Mohair cardigan with Maison Margiela’s mary janes and white sunglasses from Celine, and she managed to do so without looking like a total fashion mishap!
She keeps up with trends, from Crocs to crochet
Fashion is ever evolving. New trends and “must-have” clothing items come up every other season. It might not be easy for the average person to keep up, but Regan has had no problem.
A scroll through her Instagram will reveal that every trend that has come and gone in the past year has had its place in her wardrobe. From the comeback of the controversial Crocs that suffered years of ridicule, to crochet items whose popularity absolutely skyrocketed over the pandemic.
One of her posts shows her wearing Miu Miu’s crochet vest and pairing it with the brand’s eyelet crochet scarf.
Flared pants, boxy blazers, clashing patterns – you name it, you will never catch Mia Regan lacking.
The Mia Regan x Victoria Beckham denim collection
The collection consists of six pieces and is strongly reflects Regan’s personal style. The baggy silhouettes and low-waist slouchy fit of the denim are consistent with today’s trends.
Who better to trust when it comes to Gen Z fashion than a 20-year-old who has launched her own denim collection?
Nothing more Gen Z than a love for vintage
Regan has been a big advocate for opting for vintage luxury items on reselling sites such as Depop – she is constantly seen showing off her fully second-hand outfits on her Instagram to her followers. In one of her more recent posts, she is seen sporting preloved jewellery from Messika.
Her “Y2K fashion inspo” posters
If her social media wasn’t impressive enough, Regan shows her genuine love for fashion and enjoyment in playing with fabrics through the colourful, fun, yet detailed posters of her outfits that she posts on Instagram occasionally.
The posters usually display images of herself in fun ‘fits, showing you where each item is from or small details that she added on to the outfit herself to personalise them – a fun “how to” for aspiring fashionistas.
Her followers have commended her on her creativity and style, and for making it easier to recreate her looks or take inspiration from her. Hopefully we won’t fall into the trap of becoming fashion victims, thanks to her!
