Whether you’ve just gotten into watching K-dramas or are a long-time fan, one thing is for sure: the spot-on style and flawless outfits of any K-dramas entire cast have us making mental notes on how to style our next outfit. It’s interesting because sure the main characters are dressed to the nines, but what always catches my eyes is that even a supporting character with mere minutes in screen time will have styling that’s inspiring. “I need that in my wardrobe!” can become a repeated refrain, even as you save the look for your Pinterest boards. K-Dramas are now everyone’s favourite comfort place, offering not just fan-favourite tropes, power characters, and magical music but also gorgeous, gorgeous fashion.
Fans are filling Instagram with over 80K+ K-Drama Fashion (#KdramaFashion) posts with styles inspired by some of the most popular characters. If I had to pick some of my favourite K-dramas on the fashion radar, it has to be Crash Landing on You, Business Proposal, or It’s Okay To Not Be Okay. All the ladies in these shows are always dressed to make a statement, especially Ko Moon-young from It’s Okay To Not Be Okay, who exudes major style changes throughout the show, moving from exuberant and fancy to quiet luxury and minimalist.
So, if you want to feel like a K-drama main character (minus the cute boyfriend) and revamp your wardrobe before winter winds hit the country, scroll down to shop from our curated list:
