“From Dior muses to silver screen sirens, why we’re all secretly living someone else’s edit.”
How many times have you caught yourself watching a film, a show, or even a music video—and whispered, just for a second, “I wish I were her”? It starts innocently. A particular way she tilts her head in a close-up. The unmistakable click of Louboutins down a marble hallway. The wind catching her trench coat just so. She isn't real—not always—but she lives in your head like a memory you haven’t made yet. And in that delicate space between admiration and longing, you begin to stitch her life onto your own.
The woman in question changes with the seasons. One year, it's Blair Waldorf—her gloved hands wrapped around a Ladurée macaron, plotting with a smile in her eyes. The next, it's Bella Hadid stepping out of a hotel in the 7th arrondissement, all hair clips and attitude, turning the sidewalk into a runway. Maybe it’s Zoë Kravitz’s nonchalance in a Saint Laurent suit, or Anya Taylor-Joy in anything gilded and vaguely mysterious. You scroll past them, stream them, pin them. You don’t want to be them exactly—you want to feel how they seem to feel. Controlled. Captivating. Unbothered.
We project onto our icons because they give us a language to describe our own aspirations. Jennie Kim isn’t just a K-pop star—she’s a Chanel ambassador with the poise of a heiress and the edge of a street-style savant. Jungkook isn’t just a global performer—he’s a canvas of tattoos and contradictions, a walking editorial in motion. Their lives are curated, but they also reflect back to us something we crave: the permission to shape our identities, to wear different versions of ourselves depending on the mood, the moment, or the music. In a world obsessed with reinvention, the fantasy of being “her” is less about abandonment and more about expansion. It isn’t always about beauty or fame—sometimes it’s just about the feeling of living deliberately. Of walking into a room like it’s yours. Of ordering a martini with a name no one else dares to pronounce.
We don’t envy these women. We borrow them. Slip them on like vintage Alaïa. And in doing so, we discover that perhaps what we admire most isn't who they are—it’s the fact that they dared to become it.
“After all, the most fashionable thing you can be... is the woman you once wished you were.”
