Whitney Peak from Gossip Girl occupies creative spaces as a refreshing force for the new generation.

Gossip Girl actress Whitney Peak refreshing style and tv roles.

Anyone who saw Whitney Peak in her first appearance at the MET Gala or in this photoshoot for GOAT cannot imagine that her career started with a scam. Yes, while still living in Canada, the actress paid for the services of an agency that didn't actually exist, which could have made her give up everything.

Luckily, Peak moved on, did extra acting work, played minor roles in Home Before Dark and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, until she finally became Zoya Lott. Despite being naive, the courage and boldness of the character meet the personality of the actress, who loves going to the bakery wearing pajamas and her favorite NB.

A natural supporter of streetwear, the actress has also opened up creative paths in fashion, giving her young and fresh personal touch to Chanel's maturity. Peak knows how to break the brand's tradition with leather sneakers and baggy pants, showing that her generation doesn’t care or stand for boring sameness.

In a recent editorial for GOAT, she showcased the power of oversized leather jackets by Christian Wijnants and Moncler, building layers with a Tibi skirt. The full outfits give space to streetwear with boots by Bottega Veneta and, obviously, sneakers by Adidas.
