K-Pop and K-beauty have taken the world by storm. With all the fascination over Korean culture, K-fashion is becoming famous amongst the masses. Korean fashion is similar to American streetwear – bright colors and bold patterns. They are the standard fare if you see any K-Pop video – vibrant set with excellent lighting and some equally cool fashionable clothes. Many of the Korean fashion brands are marking their presence in fashion weeks alongside the world-famous brands and they are favored by your favorite K-pop idols!
With the vast K-Pop fanbase, the Korean fashion industry is certainly benefiting. K-pop boy bands and female K-pop stars like BTS, EXO, and Park Bom are ‘global influencers’. They simply drive the fashion trends – be it in clothing or accessories. Fans are wearing the same designers as their K-pop idols and making them famous. Fans imitate their favorite K-pop stars by dressing like them.
The K-pop stars’ fashion sense is not simply blindly followed by fans, rather it is recognized by one of the top fashion magazines. In this year’s Louis Vuitton Resort 2019 show, Sehun from the K-pop boy band EXO was named as the ‘best-dressed man’ by Vogue. His outfit was inspired by the K-pop looks with vivid colors, bold patterns, and soft fabrics.
