Sydney Sweeney Says Fashion Empowers Her as a Woman
By Danielle Campoamor,

From being on hit television shows Euphoria and The White Lotus , to movies like Anyone but You and Immaculate, it would be forgivable to assume that Sydney Sweeney is naturally confident.
“Fashion is a really fun way of embracing different sides of yourself. Some days, I might feel very girly, some days, I might feel edgy. Others, I might feel like I want to be more laid-back," she told the publication. "It's a way of being able to express those different sides of how I feel or who I am."
“It's always going to change,” Sweeney added, referring to her own personal fashion style. “That's what's so amazing, especially about being a woman, is being able to embrace all the different sides of ourselves, because we are so multifaceted and there's so much going on. I can never imagine being one thing for the rest of my life.”
The actress went on to say that she doesn't allow other people to "dictate" how she should feel or "what I should be doing or wearing," which just speaks to how fashion itself has empowered her to be unapologetically herself.

“If I put [clothes] on and I smile and I feel good [in them], then I know that's what I want to wear," she explained. "I don't really let other people dictate how I should feel or what I should be doing or wearing, because if I'm happy and it's making me feel good, that's what matters."
The actress spoke to the publication as a way of introducing herself, in a new way, to her fans via her latest partnership with HEYDUDE , a footwear brand she told the publication she has been "obsessed with" since forever.
"I'm always really proud to be very unapologetically myself and the director of my own life, which is what I think it means to be a dude," she said, adding that the partnership is her way of redefining what it means to be "a dude."
"I think that this campaign really just pulls back the curtains and shows who I am behind the camera and inspires people to be confidently themselves," she added.

While Sweeney admitted that the brand is "really popular among young men," she explained that to her the partnership makes sense because she has a history of gravitating "towards brands that I want to bring to a younger female audience."
"Everybody should be comfortable and confident," she added.
