Meet in-demand celebrity stylist Dara Allen: the trans fashionista is behind Addison Rae's and Hunter Schafer's edgy red carpet looks – but she still dreams of dressing Britney Spears
Addison Rae 's transformation is complete. The 24-year-old, who initially rose to fame on TikTok, has metamorphosed into a bona fide pop superstar – and her personal style has come along for the ride thanks to one celebrity stylist in particular: Dara Allen. The cover of Rae's debut album, Addison, sees her sporting a tight, tie-dye yellow-orange dress, which was personally designed by Allen.

When Rae appeared at last year's MTV Video Music Awards, Allen styled her in a misshapen white satin bra and pants and paired them with a voluminous tulle bustle – a look that caused a huge stir online. Allen told Harper's Bazaar that her inspiration for the outfit was a combination of Rae's favourite pieces from her 'Diet Pepsi' music video, and the trailblazing looks debuted at previous VMAs by the likes of Madonna (see the Material Girl's bridal look at the 1984 awards). Most importantly, Allen says, it was Rae's personality that held it all together: 'If you're that comfortable in your body, why cover it up with clothes?' Addison Rae wears a white panties and bra set with feather details, paired with a white tulle bustle and white peep-toe shoes, as designed by Dara Allen.

Here's what else you need to know about the stylist. She also creates stunning looks for Hunter Schafer

Pop star, 24, likened to Britney Spears over stunning no makeup look
Pop star Addison Rae has been compared to hitmaker Britney Spears after debuting a makeup-free look during her album press tour. The TikToker-turned-singer, 24, recently released her debut album Addison on June 6, which features hits like Diet Pepsi and Headphones On. While promoting the new LP and her upcoming tour tour, she raised eyebrows over her choice to go glam-free during press events. After she sat down for an interview with Kiss Radio with minimal makeup, fans praised her bold move in droves on social media. Many also compared her to another star who is known to take major risks: ...Baby One More Time songstress Britney. The Toxic singer, 43, is known for dancing on stage in her bra and underwear and famously went all-natural for many interviews and events back in the '90s. Dozens of people made the comparison under a video that was shared about Addison's lack of makeup. 'It's giving '90s Britney,' one user observed. Britney, now 43, famously went all-natural for many interviews and events back in the '90s. She's seen with minimal makeup at the Billboard Music Awards in 1999 'Makes me think of Britney,' another said, while someone else wrote, 'She's so Britney.' A few other commenters said Addison's look was a 'breath of fresh air' and that she was 'the moment.' Many people were 'obsessed' with the decision to step out with very little makeup, and makeup artist Michaeline Barker even chimed in, claiming it was a symbolic choice given Addison usually has a full face of glam. 'So, when she shows up to her debut album press tour with basically no glam, it's not because she can't. It's a choice, it's a power move,' Michaeline detailed in a TikTok. 'She's showing up to interviews with raw skin, undone hair, and for a pop star, especially when you're introducing yourself to the world musically for the first time, it's pretty unheard of. 'She is sending a message that she doesn't need glam or to be packaged in any type of way to be seen, heard and taken seriously. It's like the anti-pop pop rollout.' Additional TikTokers have chimed in on her makeup-free choice. One TikToker posted a video writing: 'Addison's no makeup press tour is historic. Her natural lip color is perfection. HOW does she do it folks?' A few other commenters said Addison's look was a 'breath of fresh air' and that she was 'the moment' Many commenters agreed, while others pointed out that the iconic Pamela Anderson has been going no makeup for years. Someone else posted a video that read: 'Addison Rae not wearing makeup during her press tour has rewired something in my brain. 'It's a power move I've never seen done before and it's intentional. She is the people's princess.' A different user commented: ' Alicia Keys has done it too before her! It's golden.' This isn't the first time the star has been compared to Britney. In October 2024, Addison dressed almost identically to Britney during a public outing.

How will the Grammys tackle the TikTokers? Alex Warren and Addison Rae look to turn chart success into Best New Artist bids
As of June 2025, the No. 1 song in both the U.S. and the U.K. is 'Ordinary', a hit penned by Alex Warren, an artist likely unknown to millennial and older audiences. Meanwhile, the top debut on the Billboard 200 for the week of June 16 was Addison, by a buzzing singer you might've heard of, Addison Rae. If you are younger, you likely know both Warren and Rae very well, as they are some of the biggest influencers of the pre-COVID-era TikTok, who are now experiencing parallel rises to music fame, both plausible contenders to win the Grammy for Best New Artist. But their rise to music stardom, while unique in its way, also responds to a bigger trend throughout this century: the primacy of social media. More from GoldDerby Jensen Ackles on [Spoiler]'s surprise appearance on 'Countdown' and the 'Supernatural' reunion on 'The Boys' Marvel's 'Ironheart' reviews: Critics love Dominique Thorne - the show she's in, not so much Sarah Michelle Gellar shares 'Buffy' reboot hopes: 'My dream is to bring back everyone who has died' Social media has birthed music stars ever since its inception. As a quick and free way to get promotion, it makes sense that a lot of up-and-coming artists would try to find an audience by cultivating an online following. The MySpace era provided acts like Panic! at the Disco and Adele with passionate fan bases that eventually translated to record deals and multiplatinum albums. But MySpace's popularity was soon eclipsed, first by Facebook and Twitter, and then by a site that became the primary vehicle for music for the millennial generation. YouTube was even much more suited for artists as a video-sharing platform, a site where fans could see their favorite artists perform, watch their vlogs, play covers essentially plugging fans into a musician's life. Artists like Troye Sivan and Alessia Cara thrived on the platform, racking up millions of views and achieving celebrity status. While these YouTube influencers did manage to find respect in the industry, it took a while for the Recording Academy to catch up with the viral hitmakers. Cara famously won the Grammy for Best New Artist in 2018, almost four years after the release of her breakout hit, 'Here,' (which has 274 million views) and fully established as a YouTube star. Sivan, on the other hand, had to wait even longer. It wasn't until a full decade later, in 2023, that he scored his first Grammy nominations. Perhaps the most famous example of a YouTube-spawned star is Justin Bieber, whose video channel was discovered at age 13 by Scooter Braun. Bieber has gone on to sell more than 150 million records and earn two Grammys (in 23 nominations) and one Latin Grammy. While it took the industry a while to come around, these performers were still viewed as artists first, internet darlings second. But there has been a seismic shift. Today, as the dominant social media app, TikTok is helping new music get discovered. However, it's not merely a platform for songs to go viral; instead, TikTokers who started out as just plain influencers are successfully transitioning into long lasting, commercially and/or critically profitable artistic careers. This proves a slight improvement from the YouTube era, where typically these types of pivots, by influencers like KSI or Gabbie Hanna, were heavily clowned, deemed inauthentic, or accused of making 'cash grabs' when putting out new songs. Even those who were gifted enough to find successful careers did not reach the heights that people like Rae and Warren have so quickly; Troye Sivan had to wait half a decade into his career to get his first top 5 album on the U.S. albums chart, and Alessia Cara never scored a No. 1 hit. But while the general audience is much more accepting of TikTok tunes, how will the industry embrace these two 2025 breakouts? At the moment, the industry seems more onboard when it comes to acknowledging viral successes. Back in the start of the 2010s, the Grammys completely ignored songs like Baauer's 'Harlem Shake' or Psy's 'Gangnam Style.' Fast-forward a few years, though, and we've had viral, meme'd-out songs like Lil Nas X's 'Old Town Road' being nominated and even winning multiple Grammys in 2020. TikTok has also helped propel the careers of such artists as Doja Cat, Samara Joy, and Olivia Rodrigo, giving them platforms that resulted in mainstream success and Grammy wins. However, those artists differ from Warren and Rae in one distinct way: they didn't start as influencers, they just popped off on the app. Due to this difference, the Recording Academy might be less inclined to 'let them in,' viewing Warren and Rae as interlopers — meme music jockeys as opposed to true artists — and undeserving of industry recognition. That said, credit where credit is due, Warren and Rae (and their respective teams) have definitely attempted to surround them with artistic peers, intentionally trying to promote these two as genuine craft makers rather than rich social media moguls running vanity projects. Warren recently released a song with multi-Grammy nominee Jelly Roll, tapping into the country genre; Warren was also singled out by Ed Sheeran. Sheeran also endorsed Addison, remarking the album on his social media account. Rae will also be touring with Lana Del Rey later this year. The countddown is own to see how fully embraced Warren and Rae will be at the 2026 Grammys, the biggest show of support from their music community and peers. 'Ordinary' feels as omnipresent as songs by Teddy Swims and Benson Boone, two other new male pop stars that achieved Best New Artist noms last year, while Addison caters to the same audience who loves Grammy winners like Charli XCX and Britney Spears. And if it all goes accordingly, and both TikTokers are present in that new Best New Artist lineup when nominations are announced on Nov. 7, then expect both Warren and Rae to launch full-blown campaigns for the stauette... beginning with their social media platform of choice.
