I Dressed Like Queer Eye’s Fab 5 For a Week & Here’s What Happened
We’ve all looked to
celebrity style for fashion inspiration at some point in our lives. But it’s
one thing to say “I love her outfit,” and it’s another to actually copy it in
real life.
For this series, I’m
going the extra mile and making it happen. Each week, I’m getting inspiration
from a celebrity and copying five of her looks as closely as possible. Then,
I’m reporting back to you: Did the outfits work in real life? Did I feel
comfortable? Did people treat me differently? I’m sharing it all.
In past posts I’ve dressed like Zendaya, Gigi Hadid, Grace Kelly, Kendall Jenner, Vanessa Hudgens, Sophie Turner, Priyanka Chopra, Millie Bobby Brown, Hilary Duff, Lily Collins, Taylor Swift, Iconic Halloween Characters, Selena Gomez, Alexa Chung, Iconic Christmas Characters and Rachel Green. This week, I’m going to take on the style of the Fab 5 from Queer Eye for a week!

About Queer Eye (2018)
Queer Eye started out a 2003 reality show that became a surprise success. It was cancelled after five seasons, but was rebooted in 2018 under Netflix, with a new team.
The show’s basic premise is that five LGBT+ men offer advice on fashion, grooming, interior design, food and wine, and culture to people who need it. The original version of the show provided advice to straight men, but the new version features people of all genders and sexual orientations.
In a week-long transformation, the Fab Five use their expertise to improve all aspects of their chosen person (“hero”)’s life — not just their exterior. It’s one of the most heartwarming shows out there right now.
I watch this show with my mom and my sister and we absolutely love it! This show gives us an excuse to make time to spend together. Each one of us has a favorite member of the Fab 5, but we love all of them.
