Tems had a lot of expensive fashion brands, but most of Ayra’s outfits are unbranded or from independent, alt designers, making it difficult to know where she gets her clothes.

Tems’ style is more millennial and stylish, whereas Ayra frequently dresses up for fun as an anime character or a Bratz doll.

They both love braids

They both love lipgloss

Tems always favors classic silhouettes. For example, the silk gowns she wore to the 2022 BET Awards and the 2023 Grammy Awards are very similar.

Ayra’s outfits combine classic silhouettes with her own modern, Gen Z spin. She might even show up on a red carpet wearing boots.
