Sofia Carson unveils a new style narrative for Billboard Italia, fusing tailored power dressing with the unapologetic swagger of street style—a move both audacious and utterly chic.
There is a certain magic that happens when an artist’s personal style begins to truly reflect their creative identity. For Sofia Carson, who has long navigated the worlds of music and cinema, her latest editorial for Billboard Magazine Italia in August 2025 feels like a sartorial manifesto. It is here that she unveils a new kind of power dressing—one that is unafraid to mix the high-fashion atelier with the rebellious spirit of the street. It’s a very modern rebellion, non?
The editorial is a study in purposeful contrasts. In one shot, she commands the frame in a black leather jacket and wide-leg trousers. The jacket, worn off the shoulders, is a raw, sensual statement, beautifully undone. But it’s the snakeskin boots that truly make the look—a flash of danger, of decadent, unapologetic texture. In another moment, she adopts a structured tweed suit, its classic silhouette reinterpreted with a clean, moto-inspired jacket. It’s a look that feels both timeless and perfectly now, a tribute to the icons of old but with a decidedly fearless edge.
This is where the magic truly unfolds. Carson wears a stunning, oversized burgundy suit—its rich, dark color and powerful tailoring are nothing short of cinematic. But the stroke of genius? The pairing with a pair of simple, retro-inspired Adidas sneakers. It’s a moment of whiplash chic—the elegance of haute tailoring colliding head-on with the raw authenticity of street style. It’s a look that makes you stop and think, that challenges the old rules of formal wear.
The entire shoot is a testament to her versatility. From the sleek, striped shirt and wide-leg trousers to the bold, all-leather ensemble, every image reinforces the idea that her style, much like her career, is defined by its ability to effortlessly bridge two worlds. It is the perfect visual representation of the magazine’s own tagline, “Una stella fra cinema e musica”—a star between cinema and music. And in this case, her style is the ultimate stage.
