How To Nail The Korean Street Wear Look

Original Content from Sreya Sanyal Thread SG

We revere our K-Pop stars for several reasons, one of them being their impeccable airport style. Contrary to popular belief, you don’t need to break the bank if you want to adopt their grungy yet feminine aesthetic.

K-Pop idols are just like us — for them, comfort is key. Which is why their travel essentials consist of items such as jeans, skirts, graphic tees and sneakers. It comes down to mixing and matching your existing wardrobe to curate that perfect Korean street-star aesthetic.

  1. Retro Daddy: Long Pants + Graphic Tee + Sneakers

Girls under 160cm, rejoice! Here’s a neat trick to make you appear as willowy as your vertically superior counterparts: pair a solid pair of waist-hugging slacks (remember, the darker the colour the slimmer you appear) with a statement-graphic tee. Throw on a cap and a pair of sneakers if you’re a fan of the small-but-tough vibe.

2. Demure Chic: Slip Dress With Shirt

While you might think we’re insane to suggest that you wear a shirt underneath a dress in the sweltering summer heat: hear us out. Air-conditioned buildings can quickly get cold, and you might find yourself scrambling to wear your jacket, only to take it off once you step outside. Slip dresses with shirts prevent the extra hassle of having to carry a jacket around, and are a great option for those uncomfortable with showing off their arms.

3. High Society: High Waisted Skirt + Top

Who said high-waisted skirts had to be relegated to the area of office-wear? For the girls who love flaunting their legs, a waist-cinching high waist skirt combined with a striped or graphic is the ultimate summer uniform.

4. Tough Love: Bomber Jacket + Denim Pants + Crop Top

There’s something irresistibly badass about a sleek, well-fitting bomber jacket-bonus points if it’s quilted and velvety. If you’re in the need of an instant ego-boost, the bomber jacket-denim pants combination works wonderfully as a morale-fixer. You’ll feel like you own the streets!
