Who: With over 10 million fans on Instagram, this cheeky superstar made waves in the K-world when her band, BLACKPINK, broke out in 2016. The Thailand-born star has a penchant for street-chic fashion, which we love.
Steal her look: This cool gal often wears girly, floral numbers offstage. Who would’ve expected her to be so feminine? But the contrast is exciting.
Get your hands on this delicate, pink orchid-printed mini before Lisa does! Pair this with some espadrilles for a beach vibe.
Cool and easy, this viscose dress would go well with a pair of sandals and some hoops for the weekend.
This number will keep your arms warm on rainy days. Dress it up with a pair of combat boots to get the pop star look.
Who: Son Na-eun gained fame with girl group, Apink, in 2011. The doll-like beauty has since starred in several television dramas, such as The Most Beautiful Goodbye (2017) and Cinderella with Four Knights (2016).
Steal her look: She is ingeniously sleek and simple, often seen in a chic blazer.
Tweed is timeless. Rock this gorgeous piece with a matching skirt and you’ll be preppy — and happy.
Basics don’t have to be boring. Dress up a piece with this satin-esque lapel that works on any blazer.
Crafted from Punto Milano jersey, this dark number is appropriate for both work and play. Style it with a pleated midi skirt for the office. On the weekend, wear with a camisole and jeans.
Who: Making her debut at the age of 15, Sunmi was a former member of Wonder Girls. Despite the OG’s disbanding in 2017, her fame continues to skyrocket. She has released hit songs like Gashina (2017) and Heroine (2018) as a solo artist.
Steal her look: Statement jackets are definitely her thing. She knows that a good, bold jacket packs can elevate a simple ensemble.
This leopard lamé jacket is all about ’70s glamour and opulence. Be wild and wear it with a sequin dress.
Vermillion — always a great colour to help make a statement. Channel the quintessential casual Sunmi look by wearing it with a v-neck top and a pair of blue corduroy pants.
The striking hue and crushed texture are some of the things that we love about this velvet frock coat. Match this piece with an all-black ensemble.
Who: Starting out as a model, Seolhyun’s impressive resume now includes acting and singing credits when she made her debut as a member of the girl group AOA. This multi-hyphenate celebrity is also known as one of South Korea’s top celeb endorsers, after she won that title alongside actor Park Bo-gum in 2017.
Steal her look: She prefers pieces that are feminine, and mixes her looks with a sense of edge before finishing with an elegant pair of earrings or an eye-catching bag.
The bright lime green colour of this croc bag makes this piece a definite head-turner. Plus, the exaggerated bucket shape also helps to make it look and feel more fun and youthful.
A bright pink bag helps draw the attention towards it and away from the rest of your look. Our fave pick has to be the Gate bag, which features a gorgeous bright pink colour and can be carried for the weekend as well.
A subtler way to draw attention to your bag is to pick a rich jewel tone. This forest green slinger not only helps to keep your belongings safely kept away, it’s a chic colour that will add depth to any outfit.
