Duff's career follows the Disney Channel arc precisely: Houston local theatre and television commercials, then the title role in Lizzie McGuire, which made her a teen idol, then the 2003 movie version of the same character. The film run that followed — Agent Cody Banks, Cheaper by the Dozen, A Cinderella Story and its sequel — was aimed squarely at the same young audience, and those four films rank among the biggest commercial successes of her career. For a fashion guide, the teen-idol phase matters because it is when a performer's clothing is copied most directly by its audience.
The later credits show the range widening: independent films War, Inc. (2007) and Bloodworth (2011), television dramas Ghost Whisperer, Gossip Girl and Two and a Half Men, and production credits shared on some projects — plus the entrepreneurial and author credits that round out her listing. This page gathers Hilary Duff news, style coverage, photos, glam features, videos and blog posts, and the H-letter directory places her beside Hilary Swank — note the spelling: Hilary with one 'l' in the middle, where Hillary Clinton, the third H profile with a similar name, spells it with two.

The term glamour was originally meant to be; a spell cast over someone, particularly to change how things appeared to them. The primary modern meaning of the word relates to fascination, charisma, beauty, or attraction. Celebrities are often referenced as glamorous. In addition to celebs being glamorous, regular every day people, or their lifestyles, can be described as glamorous. Although many words which end in "our" in British English are spelled with "or" in American English, "glamour" is an exception with the "u" usually being retained. This may be due to its original being Scottish rather than French or Latin. The alternative spelling "glamour" is sometimes used in American English, but not as frequently. Also, Glamour in modern day is occasionally abbreviated as simply Glam.
