The red carpet of any awards show, gala, or runway presentation is one of the most-watched fashion spectacle in history. And you can expect K-drama and K-pop stars to deliver plenty of memorable fashion moments on every occasion! From the beginning of the red carpet down to where the celebration happens, these stars never fail to charm us with their elegant and dapper looks.
To look back at our favorite red carpet looks in recent history, we rounded up the very best of Korean fashion in the gallery down below. From Son Ye-jin’s second skin-like Ralph Lauren gown for the 56th Baeksang Arts Awards, IU’s groundbreaking first appearance at the Cannes Film Festival in 2022 where she wore a custom grey Choi Jae-hoon dress adorned with Chaumet jewelry, to Song Hye-kyo’s Fendi couture gown at the 2023 Met Gala, these looks will forever go down in the history of red carpet fashion.
When it comes to menswear, there are plenty of outfits that are just as iconic! A crowd favorite is Hyun Bin and his navy blue Ralph Lauren tuxedo at the 56th Baeksang Arts Awards. Another red carpet standout is Park Seo-joon at the Chanel F/W 2023 presentation in Paris Fashion Week where he of course wore Chanel! And who could ever forget Jimin’s Dior tux styled with a Tiffany & Co. brooch at the celebration of Tiffany & Co.’s flagship store re-opening in New York.
There are 30 red carpet looks to marvel at in the gallery down below. Which one is your ultimate favorite?
