Stargirl” is a self-directed editorial exploring love, heartbreak, and self-discovery. Rooted in my personal experiences navigating relationships over the past two years, it reflects on the strength it takes to love others and ourselves — even after pain. Through writing, imagery, and design, this project aims to remind people of the power their love holds, the importance of self-compassion, and the courage it takes to keep believing in love. It’s a visual and emotional journey of finding light in darkness — and choosing to embrace it.
I chose the name Stargirl because this editorial is a reflection of my journey — a process of finding, recognising, and embracing myself. Over the past year, moving through different stages of love and loss, I’ve learned not just to exist as her sometimes, but to fully embody her. The name holds meaning; it took moments of darkness to realise that I shine through it — that it’s often in the darkest places where we truly see who we are and who we want to become
This is my editorial, Stargirl.
