]]>  A few days ago, Givenchy launched its FW 2024 women’s campaign, unveiling a series of playful and provocative looks that push the boundaries of high fashion. Among the faces of this bold new launch is Neelam Kaur Gill, the British-Indian model who needs no introduction. Known for her striking features—sharp cheekbones, expressive eyes, and a presence that commands attention—Neelam stands as a beacon of representation in an industry often perceived as an exclusive club with rigid entry rules. 

 

Neelam’s inclusion in this campaign is not just about aesthetics; it’s about the statement she brings with her. In a world where conformity often overshadows individuality, her unwavering commitment to her roots and her pride in her heritage make her role in this campaign as significant as it is groundbreaking. 

From Coventry to Couture: A Journey of Self-Discovery 

Neelam’s story is as inspiring as it is authentic. She didn’t grow up in the world of fashion and never saw herself as part of it. In Coventry, she was a self-proclaimed “normal working-class girl,” shy, awkward, and unsure if she fit the industry’s mould. Modelling was simply a way to save for university, but it quickly evolved into a career that would redefine her life. 

At 18, Neelam took a leap of faith and stepped into the world of modelling—not with grand ambitions, but as a means to fund her education. What she found instead was a path that would redefine her life and, in turn, the fashion industry. 

Staying True to Her Roots 

When advised to drop “Kaur” from her name to appear more racially ambiguous, Neelam refused. “I’ll always remain true to myself,” she stated. Her commitment to her identity has become her trademark. Now, as the face of Givenchy, she carries a legacy, a culture, and a fierce commitment to staying true to who she is. 

A Career Defined by Representation 

Neelam’s journey in the fashion industry began with campaigns for brands like Abercrombie & Fitch, where she first gained recognition. But it was her debut on the Dior runway last year that marked a significant turning point in her career. Walking for Dior wasn’t just a personal achievement for Neelam; it was a cultural celebration. “Deeply grateful to have been a part of this moment in history, especially as a Punjabi girl,” she shared, acknowledging how significant it was to see her culture embraced by a fashion house she had long admired. 

Givenchy, a brand known for its elegance and classic beauty, chose Neelam not just for her striking looks, but for the depth she brings to their campaigns. Her presence challenges traditional beauty standards and opens doors for other women who, like her, may have once felt they didn’t belong. 

A Continuing Legacy in Fashion 

Neelam Kaur Gill’s role in Givenchy’s FW 2024 campaign signifies a continuation of fashion’s evolving narrative—one where authenticity, diversity, and cultural pride take centre stage. Her journey from Coventry to the global stage is a testament to the power of staying true to oneself, and her influence in the fashion world is only just beginning.

Accessories have always been an important part of fashion but in Spring 2021 there is no excuse to neglect details. The upcoming trends emerging afford the perfect opportunity to optimise an outfit with statement and subtle accessories to complete a cohesive look. Majority of SS21 Accessories are all about colour and liveliness. Whether that be incorporating a fun pop of colour into cute chunky rings, dainty mini bags, rimless shades or hair clips. Or choosing to opt for subtler trends such as head scarfs and belly chains. SS21 trends encompass a variety of choices to jazz up your style, ready to welcome back the wardrobe.

Pop Rings

Colourful, wild and wacky rings are taking the stage in SS21, no more minimalist jewellery; your hands are going to be the conversation starter with the new pop rings. Instagram is full of celebrities and influencers such as Bella Hadid and Emma Chamberlain flashing these gorgeous statement rings, each individual piece unique and playful. The colours can be co-ordinated with nail polish, gels and acrylics; hence it is a super cute accessory to play around with all Spring/Summer, changing up your style and letting your hands complement your looks.


Phone Charms


The SS21 phone charm trend are the perfect accessory to elevate a classic mirror selfie. With its beaded nature, it gives big Y2K vibes, reminding me of old school DIY projects. Conveniently, creating these charms could actually be a productive use of a lockdown life, crafting some sweet phone charms adds a little personality and individuality to your phone.


Hair Clips


High-end fashion houses such as Prada have brought out hair clips, initiating a return to these cute and pretty accessories. Like the phone charms, snap clips bring back primary school memories of girly details, a bonus to their sweet look is that they act in practical ways to push back baby hairs and overgrown fringes. This accessory is a great way to dress up a look when your make up is minimal.

Rimless Sunglasses



Rimless Sunglasses are such a look for SS21, their lightness in colour and lack of boarder means they do not dominate your face; they create a much softer appeal. They can also come in shield forms, which look futuristic and modern, really heightening contemporary trends.


Belly Chains and Chain Belts


Adding a belly chain to a bikini completes an outfit. It a simple way to show you have a keen eye for detail and it can elevate your look to a luxury, polished vision. Not only are belly chains for bare skin; chain belts are big in SS21. A golden chain wrapped around your waist transform a previously clunky item into a delicate statement piece. It does not distract the eye in a bold and jarring way, it reflects and glistens in sunlight adding subtly whilst you glow with confidence.


Mini Bags


Mini bags are not just for Stormi Jenner… they are for adults too. Brands such as Jacquemus and Balenciaga have the cutest range of mini bags, which look so sophisticated and dainty. Because they are such small items, it can be really fun to experiment with colour, for the bag is not dominating. Although they aren’t the most practical of things, it is 2021; we are the era of contactless payments in
a nearly cashless society. All we need is a phone, ID and a card, hence, these style of bags can definitely fit the essentials. The compromise is totally worth it when your bag looks that good.


Head Scarfs


The silk material of a headscarf creates an angelic and effortless feel for this accessory. One of the key features as to why head scarfs are such a great trend this year is their championing of versatility. Not only can you look like a goddess with the scarf wrapped around your head, they can be used like a bobble to tie your hair up and they can look chic styled as a top. This trend is a savvy option to invest in, for they can be styled in multiple different ways to create several outfits.
