8 Style Trends To Steal From Your Favourite K-Pop Stars

No one's doing it like them, afterall!

By Tinky Ningombam | LAST UPDATED: NOV 19, 2025

In 2025, K-pop isn't just influencing music charts, it’s dictating fashion trends.

While the West debates quiet luxury, Korean idols are remixing tradition with streetwear, proving that style should be anything but predictable. Think hanboks with hoodies, pant-less fits with elegance, and silhouettes that don’t play by the rules.

K-Pop Style Trends You Should Steal

K-pop isn’t chasing relevance, it’s setting it. And if you're not keeping it, you're missing out on the new definition of cool when it comes to menswear.

The Hanbok, Hacked

S.Coups of SEVENTEEN reimagined the hanbok at the 2025 Met Gala, blending traditional pleats with a modern cape. It's heritage with a twist. Regal, restrained, revolutionary.

Avant-Garde Streetwear

Wooyoung of ATEEZ layered textures and asymmetrical cuts in the "Crazy Form" MV, pushing streetwear into art territory.

Soft Boy, Grown Up

Korean soft boy style is now more textured, more adult. Case in point: Hongjoong (ATEEZ) in a draped beige jacket over loose culotte shorts, finished with a scarf and boots. Romantic without being costume-y. Clean without being clinical.

Textured Tailoring

Jackson Wang (GOT7) showed up at Louis Vuitton FW25 with a masterclass in mixing surfaces. Vintage LV knit, crisp pants, glossy boots. It was all black, but nothing felt flat. This is the monochrome evolution. Layering textures to keep the eye moving. Black, but busy in the best way.

Androgynous Aesthetics

At the Versace show in Milan, Hyunjin (Stray Kids) wore a flowing blouse with intricate detailing and tailored trousers. Proof that gender norms are just design notes, not rules.

Vintage Revival

J-Hope (BTS) pulled off retro without looking like a costume. Oversized check blazer, flared jeans, brown LV bag that felt more thrifted than flashy. The bob hat sealed the deal. Vintage, but with modern swagger.
