‘Gossip Girl’ Predecessor RBD Makes Comeback With ‘Soy Rebelde’

‘Gossip Girl’ Predecessor RBD Makes Comeback With ‘Soy Rebelde’

Latin pop-rock group RBD is back after a 15-year break with the “Soy Rebelde” world tour. The group, which began as a fictional band within the Mexican soap opera “Rebelde” in 2004 and went on to sell 15 million records worldwide, will travel across North, Central and South America starting in August. The announcement follows the Y2K-era revival in entertainment and fashion, as seen with HBO Max’s “Gossip Girl” reboot, which was canceled this week after two seasons.

Like the unique “Gossip Girl” from 2007, the “Rebelde” series also followed the lives of elite students in private school. The solid reflected the 2000s aesthetic on-screen in addition to of their real-life RBD music group, where they took the style to stages worldwide. In actual fact, the Mexican group was already influencing teen fashion before Serena van der Woodsen and Blair Waldorf arrived on TV.

The recognition of the series attracted guest stars Lenny Kravitz and Hilary Duff. Netflix rebooted “Rebelde” this 12 months on Jan. 5, now set 16 years after the series wrapped in 2006.

Throughout the series, Anahí, Dulce María and Maite Perroni, the trio who played Mia, Roberta and Lupita, respectively, often wore pointy knee-high leather boots, cropped button-down shirts, bedazzled denim and low-rise miniskirts — a silhouette that was resurrected by Miu Miu at its spring 2022 Paris Fashion Week show.

The RBD singers’ outfits would flirt with Paris Hilton, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera’s 2000s style, mixing with the schoolgirl aesthetic portrayed in Japanese anime and ending with a rebellious touch of soppy grunge inspired by Avril Lavigne’s “Let Go” era.

Supermodels like Gigi Hadid and Emily Ratajkowski, the present Y2K fashion renaissance, might be seen wearing pieces that will fit perfectly into the RBD wardrobe, including their distressed blazers, acid-wash jeans, slipdresses, sequined purses and thigh-high socks.

When touring, the RBD members would explore their aesthetic even further, adding lace corsets, slipdresses and combat boots to their looks. Alfonso Herrera, Christopher von Uckermann and Christian Chavez, who played Miguel, Diego and Giovanni within the soap opera, were also influencing teenagers with their colourful hair and NSync-inspired outfits.
