Media have revealed 3 celebrities that have made retro fashion into a sexy trend.
On June 29, Mamamoo's Hwasa returned with her new song 'Maria' and went on the stage with loose gray training pants and nude color sleeveless top catching attention. Her outfit looked like a grandpa's early-morning walking costume with its loose style.
Hwasa's stylist Kim Bo-na stated, "I referred to styles by fashionistas in Hollywood for her styling. In fact, her top is a "Skims" body suit, a fashion brand by Kim Kardashian. I came up with a sophisticated syle that can express Hwasa's healthy sexiness. I wanted to create a "hip" feeling with a pant silhouette that is comfortable and will stand out when doing intense choreography."
Sunmi who made a comeback with her new song 'Purple Night' looked like a painting wearing an intense patterned costume with an exaggerated shape aka "romantic grunge look."
Her stylist Lee Ji-eun stated, "I wanted to create a style that would make Sunmi stand out as a solo artist on stage. I added rugged boots to neutralize the exaggerated princess vibes in the outfit."
On the 30th, Lee Hyo-ri (Linda G) showed off retro fashion as if she was back in the 1990s with a fluorescent power suit on a SSAK3 behind-the-scenes cut with Yoo Jae-Suk and Rain.
Stylist Lee Ji-hye stated, "We reformed vintage pieces mixed in with trendy clothes from current designers. That's why Linda G's outfit looks retro but still trendy reminiscent of charismatic Deux."
The image of a sexy diva seducing the public was once frowned upon but it appears this is the era of powerful divas who express their own style rather than being pretty.
