Since our Brat queen, Charli XCX, released her sixth studio album earlier this summer, she has made it our life goal and mission to become the ultimate Brat cause it’s a lifestyle that we must live up to before it’s too late.

In a TikTok interview, Charli XCX explained the essence of being a Brat: “You’re that girl who is a bit messy and loves to party and maybe says dumb things sometimes. She’s honest, blunt and a little bit volatile. That’s Brat.”

Clean Girl, Mob Wife, Coquette, they can all move aside as there’s a new aesthetic in the space, and she’s the equivalence of a hot girl summer, and in the words of Charli, we are bumpin’ Brat for the next few.

Here are clubs in Dubai that exude brat energy, which is all about having fun and being messy.
