Why Nepo Babies Killed the It-Girl

The It-Girl is dead—replaced by nepo babies who inherited the spotlight instead of earning it. Once upon a time, It-Girls like Alexa Chung and Kate Moss defined effortless cool, setting trends rather than following them. But today, the new faces of fashion—Lily-Rose Depp, Hailey Bieber, Sofia Richie—aren’t being discovered; they’re placed in the spotlight, thanks to their famous last names. So, how did we get here? And can the real It-Girl ever make a comeback? In this deep dive, we’ll explore what truly made an It-Girl and why they felt so special, how nepo-baby culture took over fashion, and why coolness has become manufactured instead of organic. We’ll also discuss whether we’re on the brink of an It-Girl renaissance or if effortless style is gone for good.
