Lola Tung The Summer I Turned Pretty

At just 22, Lola Tung has emerged as one of fashion and TV&#x27;s most compelling new faces, a magnetic presence who is redefining what it means to be a modern actress. As the luminous lead in hit series The Summer I Turned Pretty, Lola has not only captivated hearts on screen with her earnest portrayal of Isabel “Belly” Conklin, but has also turned heads off-screen with a fashion trajectory that’s as assured and quietly powerful as her performance.<div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1758004340755BANNERS (1).png" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/>Photos from @lola.tung on Instagram</div>There’s an undeniable duality to Lola’s style evolution—effortless yet intentional, youthful but laced with a quiet maturity—that mirrors the complexity of the character she plays. In the series, it was one particular look that sparked a frenzy: the now-viral white debutante dress made of satin that launched a thousand Pinterest boards and TikTok recreations. It wasn’t just a costume—it was a sartorial symbol of Belly’s transformation. The internet responded with admiration, and just like that, a fashion star was born.<div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1758004460196542601983_1203829745109294_8229252129962583925_n.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/>The viral white dress from &#x27;The Summer I Turned Pretty&#x27; | Photo from @lola.tung on Instagram</div>Designers have taken notice. Miu Miu, a brand known for its playful subversion of innocence and rebellion, tapped Lola for a campaign that perfectly encapsulated her cool, off-beat elegance. Coach followed suit, recognizing in her a kind of Gen Z charm that’s both accessible and aspirational. <div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1758004744382primevideo_1755921860_3705263578872454398_1684102154.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/>Lola Tung at the premiere of &#x27;The Summer I Turned Pretty&#x27; Season 3 | Photo from Prime Video</div>On the red carpet, she’s proven herself to be a quiet disruptor. At the The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 premiere, she stunned in a sheer Ann Demeulemeester dress accessorized with a fringe headpiece and knee high sneakers. Then came fashion week, where she joined the front row seats wearing structured tailoring and whimsical dresses, always with a fresh, unfussy beauty look that made everything feel cohesive. One moment she’s in a Miu Miu micro-mini and kitten heels, the next in a Thom Browne look styled with a cute dachshund bag—the kind of understated cool that only someone with style can pull off.<div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1758004822801lola.tung_1739633764_3568629121967747967_1637442876.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/>Lola Tung at the Thom Browne Fall/Winter 2025 show </div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1758005110163lola.tung_1727447570_3466403917786988554_1637442876.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/>Lola Tung at the Balmain Spring/Summer 2025 showBut perhaps what makes Lola Tung such a thrilling fashion figure is her refusal to be boxed in. With a quiet confidence, she moves through the fashion world not as an accessory to fame, but as a voice of her generation: stylish, thoughtful, and undeniably real. In an industry always searching for the next big thing, Lola Tung is proving she’s not just next—she’s now.</div>
