Confidently eccentric, Willow's style might just be as cryptic (and entertaining) as her brother Jaden's philosophical tweets. She goes for indie-meets-normcore stage and street attire, but her formalwear is polished with an unorthodox twist. She made an all-teal outfit look edgy at the Chanel Haute Couture show this summer, proving she belongs as one of the French brand's cool girls.

The petite blonde actress has been busy since Mad Men pulled its curtains. For starters, she made her front-row rounds at this season's NYFW, and quite stylishly so, whether it's in feminine Miu Miu or dark and structured 3.1 Phillip Lim. Shipka's cute enough for an embroidered Dior minidress, and bold enough to wear it over trousers—on the Emmy's red carpet.

Steinfeld is a shapeshifter, often transitioning between her multiple roles as Oscar-nominated actress, rising pop singer and member of Taylor Swift's girl squad. But she also takes those transformations to her wardrobe, wearing modern silhouettes one day, and familiarly feminine ones on the next.

The young Game of Thrones star demonstrates an Arya-like fearlessness when it comes to dressing for the red carpet. There was the navy suit and t-shirt combo at the National Television Awards in London, and the red lace Self-Portrait dress at the SAG Awards.

It's a no-brainer that the Breakthrough Model of the Year (and Cindy Crawford's daughter) picked up a great sense of style.
