I was a bookish, shy kid at at 15. I had frizzy hair with sky-high bangs, braces and glasses, and was as skinny as a rail. I dressed in baggy clothes to hide my figure out of lack of confidence, but even without that as the reason, my mother wouldn't have let me out of the house dressed the way Ava dresses nowadays.
If I was to put a time frame on it, I would say that in the early 2000s, when Britney Spears was popular, was when we saw culturally how her style influenced a lot of young teens in terms of clothing. When I was a kid, it was Tiffany and Debbie Gibson who were our teen idols, and they also dressed pretty modestly compared to the stars of the last decade or more.
As for Ava, she can definitely pull that look off; she's a beautiful girl. I wish I had had her confidence at that age.
