PSA: We Found The Top That Andrea Brillantes Wore During Her Hong Kong Trip—Here's Where To Get It

If there's one thing Andrea Brillantes consistently gets right, it's knowing how to make trendy pieces suit her personal style. Whether she's wearing hyper-girly silhouettes, edgy streetwear, or soft coquette-inspired looks, Andrea always adds that effortless Gen Z Coo Girl™ energy that makes people immediately want to recreate the outfit themselves.

Case in point: On Instagram, Andrea recently shared snippets from her Hong Kong Disneyland adventure. She lip-synced to "For The First Time In Forever" from Frozen, while looking super cute in a babydoll top that everyone's obsessed with. And can we just say, the outfit was very much giving a modern-day Disney main character! 😉

For the trip, Andrea kept the styling polished but playful. She paired the look with soft glam makeup, a half-pony hairstyle, boots, and a few Frozen-inspired accessories that perfectly matched the whole dreamy amusement park vibe. But the real standout of the outfit was definitely her blue babydoll top, which featured puff sleeves, a Peter Pan collar, plaid details, and delicate ruffles.

The silhouette has a soft, feminine, effortlessly cool, and intentionally oversized look that Gen Z fashion girls have been loving lately. It had a vintage-inspired charm that still felt wearable for casual outings, café dates, concerts, or even theme park trips like Andrea's.

And if you've already started saving the outfit for inspo, we found the exact top she wore! ☺️ The piece is available on Cider for only P2,080. It features a checkered pattern with button and ruffle details, making it easy to style with any bottoms like mini skirts, bloomers, or even loose jeans, depending on the vibe you're going for.

The babydoll outfit has been taking over fashion feeds lately, but the aesthetic dates back and involves more than just wearing ultra-girly clothes. Babydoll fashion usually refers to loose, flowy silhouettes inspired by vintage babydoll dresses from the 1950s and 1960s. These pieces often feature empire-cut waists, puff sleeves, lace trims, ribbons, Peter Pan collars, bows, ruffles, and shorter hemlines, creating a playful, doll-like look.

But today's version of the trend is much more layered and experimental. A lot of young women pair them with chunky boots, oversized jackets, heavy eyeliner, messy hairstyles, or sporty accessories to create contrast. The result is a look that feels feminine without looking overly polished or predictable.

Pop culture has also played a huge role in bringing the trend into mainstream fashion. Sabrina Carpenter, for one, has become closely associated with babydoll-inspired styling throughout her performances and public appearances, often wearing corseted mini dresses, puff sleeves, lace details, and vintage-inspired silhouettes during her Short n' Sweet era.

Meanwhile, Olivia Rodrigo—who also happens to be Cosmopolitan Philippines' latest cover girl—has also embraced similar silhouettes in her own way. In her "Drop Dead" music video set inside the Palace of Versailles, Olivia leaned into the babydoll aesthetic through a vintage-inspired outfit layered with sheer fabrics, delicate lace details, bloomers, and a pastel-toned piece. She paired it with knee-high socks and retro headphones as an accessory, giving her a natural rockstar feel alongside its feminine sense.

Of course, like many ultra-feminine fashion trends that had their time in the spotlight, the babydoll aesthetic has also sparked conversations online. Some critics argue that the look "infantilizes" women because of its doll-inspired silhouettes, while others point out how hyper-girly fashion is often dismissed more quickly compared to minimalist or masculine-coded styles.

But fashion researchers note that the babydoll silhouette has always carried a more layered history than people assume. In The Guardian article, Dr. Liza Betts of the London College of Fashion explained that the style emerged alongside the mini dress movement in the 1960s and reflected the tension between traditional expectations of women and growing visibility of female freedom and self-expression during that era.

Today, Gen Z approaches fashion with a much more expressive and creative mindset. Trends like the babydoll aesthetic resonate with this generation because they allow people to experiment, play with different moods and identities, and wear pieces that feel personal to their own style.
