Zomgzmg Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Would be good if you have a moodboard/style in mind for us to reference. There are some Korean labels here iirc https://us.wconcept.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G_ZK Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 prerequisite: you need to be pretty slim and have a small frame to look good in that korean look. if you workout and is buff, most probably you cant fit those style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure whether is it korean style, but saw a few people wearing big size shirt. But also can see they are quite buff inside. Very nice to see.

Mameha Posted October 4, 2021 Author Share Posted October 4, 2021 Defo not looking for traditional korean costumes like hanbok. i am not even sure how to describe this korean style or if this is even mainstream. But if u watch korean dramas, dont you feel although the actors don western clothes (be it casual or formal), the style is just different? Korean fashion have a unique way to transform normal western wears to something more tasteful and fitting for the asian body. And i am trying to ask if theres actually such online shops selling these apparels. Not looking for branded stuff, although i am aware of how heavily sponsored korean dramas are.

I started watching some K-drama on Netflix recently, and do noticed that they have a distinct aesthetics that seems to have evolved from Japanese. Very Uniqlo, but more muted in terms of colours. Western styles tend to focus more on emphasizing the body shape, hence more tight fitting/slim fit, with cropped tops, shorts etc. Korean style is more coverage, and as pointed out, design to fit Asian bodies more. The only western designer now I can think of that will fit East Asian bodies well now is St. Laurent. His clothes are really tiny, that even models have to starve themselves to work the runway. I think it also has a lot to do with the cultural sensibilities. I noticed in majority of the K-dramas I have watched, about 5 so far, couples don't kiss on the lips, even between a husband and wife. It is always a peck on the cheek. Some will sleep on separate beds, especially older couples, and they all wear pyjamas to bed. There is this site, Allblanc. You can check out their youtube site.

SopranoZOR Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 (edited) I rarely buy Korean-style clothes, but most of all, I like the Kooding store. It is a popular clothing store selling Korean fashion clothes. However, I don't like suits and tuxedos there. If I want to buy a nice suit or, for example, a tuxedo for a wedding, I usually order it at https://www.gentlemansguru.com/product-category/wedding-tuxedos/. I like this store the most because I like its price-quality ratio. I haven't found any other alternatives yet. I hope my post will be useful to you!

I checked out some of Allblanc TV videos on YouTube. Very nice. I might start doing those exercises when I am 90 years old. In the meantime, I continue happily with my Western style weight lifting and aerobics. Clothes and more clothes... so much fabric! But the FUNDAMENTAL question I have is: Where can one do some shopping for Korean-style BODY? ( cannot be online ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
