The Best Brat Green Beauty Buys
Brat green is to 2024 what Barbie pink was to 2023—it’s everywhere, and everyone’s talking about it. The Brat trend was ignited by Charli XCX’s latest album of the same name, and according to the British singer, Brat is not only an aesthetic but a way of life. As Charli explained on TikTok, the archetypal brat is “that girl who is a little messy and likes to party and maybe says some dumb things sometimes, who feels herself, but then also maybe has a breakdown, but kind of parties through it.”
Since the album dropped on 7th June, Brat has captured the cultural zeitgeist. The album—which gives us major ’90s rave energy—became so instantly iconic that its sans serif font and lime green cover are currently dominating the meme scene. Now the definitive colour of the summer, brat green is being adopted by anyone who’s anyone—Vice President Kamala Harris included.
