With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, this edition of ‘Grab the Look‘ was inspired by one of K-Pop’s hottest on-stage couples, Trouble Maker!
Cube Entertainment‘s sexy duo — comprised of B2ST‘s Hyunseung and 4minute‘s HyunA — galvanized the K-Pop community with their sizzling choreography and music video. Trouble Maker’s modern spin on secret agent films from the 1960s can also be found in their fashion, which combines classic lines with contemporary patterns.
Hyunseung presented a classic silhouette with his tuxedo jacket, but made it trendy by choosing a bold animal print. To make this easier to wear, go with a less formal silhouette (such as a blazer) and select prints with colors that are more toned down (such as navy blue or black). Doing this also makes the jacket more of a wardrobe staple than a once-in-a-blue-moon piece.
The jacket can be dressed up with a light colored shirt and dark jeans, or dressed down with a graphic tee and sneakers. Finish the outfit with a cool belt buckle to add personality and a great pair of shoes that can go with anything.
Hyunseung’s partner, HyunA, wore a matching animal print in a sexy and seductive shape. Bold and vibrant, this dress can only be worn on special occasions, but it’ll be totally worth it since jaws will drop.
Find a great jacket to cover up the dress when travelling. You should look for a piece with strong construction and architectural lines, but is fitted to help bring out that feminine silhouette and show off the waistline. A cute heart wristlet will keep all your things close at hand while playing with the holiday theme.
Finally, add a fiery pop with red pumps to seal the deal. These are also a great wardrobe builder since they can be paired with other dresses and skirts, or dressed down with jeans.
Valentine’s Day is all about couples, so we’ve got some tips on how to wear ‘couple outfits’.
The ”Trouble Maker” video gives great insight on how to wear couple outfits — the ensembles all play with similar patterns, but are used in different ways to avoid a look that’s ‘matchy matchy’. The key to wearing couple outfits on today’s streets is to keep it subtle and let the details do the talking. Try wearing similar patterns or colors in different parts of the outfit, such as shoes or accessories.
And if you’re single this Valentine’s Day? Follow this style guideline and you definitely won’t be! (Although we hope your date will turn out better than HyunA and Hyunseung’s in the music video).
Happy Valentine’s Day!
