Halle Bailey Says Big Sis Chlöe Inspires Her To Take Fashion Risks

“I look back at some of my pictures on the red carpet and laugh,” said the singer.

Halle Bailey is blossoming in the fashion department.

During an interview for Cosmopolitan’s latest cover, the singer opened up on her style evolution and how her older sis Chlöe Bailey has helped her overcome her wardrobe insecurities.

For Halle, curating an outfit from scratch has not always been a skill she excelled in, especially during her younger days in the limelight.

“I’m definitely not a natural!” the “Angel” singer explained to the publication. “I look back at some of my pictures on the red carpet and laugh.”

Now, as an adult, those laughs are a thing of the past.

“But as I’m getting older and my body is changing, I’m learning who I am,” she explained. “I want to be sexy. I want to feel good. I want to wear clothes that embrace where I am in life.”

While Halle has been on a journey to find her personal style, she has not been alone. Her sister Chlöe has taken The Little Mermaid star under her wing, and now she has found her fashion voice.

“My confidence has gotten deeper and bigger with the help of my sister,” she expressed. “She’s always been an extroverted, sexy, demanding kind of presence.”

Halle also told the outlet that having a front-row seat to her sister's style choices has been helpful.

“As I’ve watched her, I’m like, 'That’s so cool,'” she shared. “I hope one day I can do that. She’s helping me find my footing in this whole adult-woman world.”

Last month, she talked to PEOPLE about the new pieces she likes to wear now and how body positivity plays an important role in her decisions.

“I’m more comfortable with wearing more form-fitting things and embracing my curves now.”

“My body type has always been a bit more straight-lined, I guess, and I’ve always wished I’d had more boobs and more butt, but I’m starting to embrace all the things that make me, me,” she added.
