Fashion Hits & Misses: 11/7 – 11/12

Another eventful week has gone by, filled with award show winnings, music videos, performances, and, of course fashion in the world of K-pop.  Let’s take some time to review this week’s fashion hits and misses.

Hits

Although some of us feel that sel-cas are tacky, I can’ help but love the picture Super Junior’s Donghae and Yesung released earlier this week. The boys look gorgeous in those black tailored suits.

f(x)’s Victoria’s cameo appearance in TRAX’s music video for “Blind” was also a hit in my book.   She wore a simple A-line brown dress and black-and-leopard platform pumps.  This simple yet feminine outfit immediately caught my eye.

Misses

G.NA sported a black mini dress to a press conference/photo shoot. She reminds me of celebrities that always feel the need to show off their bodies. G.NA, we get it: you’re gorgeous and your body is kick-ass. That being said, this is not a good look for you. That dress barely covers your backside – how do you move in it? And the stiletto heels and low-cut neckline only emphasize the tackiness of the look.

Miss A’s Suzy pulled a total opposite look with an overly prim dress when she was leaving for Australia with her crew.  If it weren’t for those sleeves, I would love her outfit but those overly puffy, Victorian-esque sleeves make her look frumpy.

What do you think of these looks?  Were they hits or misses in your book as well and do you have any other looks that you want to mention?

    Dunno, I like both G.Na’s and Suzy’s outfit.
    G.Na is just hot and the dress does look good on her. And Suzy is just adorable in her schoolgirl outfit.
    To each his own I guess.

    But really author, you could’ve find much greater flops is you tried. Just go to allkpop and click on the tag “2ne1″. Something will pop out.

      Lol if I did that than 2ne1 would be in the Misses section every week! That group is so crazy with style, it deserves an article of its own. I think there is an article about it somewhere, actually. But there wasn’t much this week. I was going through AllKpop and Soompi and there was little outfits for out and about celebrities, if I recall, and what else was there was pretty bland. Most of the articles had to do with gossip of some sort, like chart rankings or performance :/ . I’ll have to look harder in the future.

        2ne1 is a never-ending source of amusement for me. There are “trash parties” in my town, where basically you have to dress in the trashiest combination possible. 2ne1 inspires me, just like they do Jeremy Scott. :D
        Jokes, I like their music, but their style is too often too much.

      • eh

        …

        A writer for SB just admits trolling on Soompi and Allkpop for articles ideas. Come on now…I had a little faith in your guys.

          No, not articles, pictures. We use AllKpop and Soompi for pictures. The writers on SeoulBeats come up with their own ideas for articles but finding pictures with a ligitimate source is hard. Like, I’ve had an idea for an article in mind for awhile now but I’m having a difficult time coming across pictures. AllKpop and Soompi typically report gossip, so I go through there to see if anyone has posted a new selca or gone to an event or whatnot.

    i thought suzy’s outfit was really cute, but not suitable for Australia’s weather right now!

      I would love Suzy’s dress if the sleeves weren’t so puffy. I think she does look adorable but the sleeves were a miss on the designer’s part.

        I have to agree, I thought the sleeves were really awful. :-P

    G.NA needs to see her hairdresser and fix those roots :S

    (and btw, she is lovely but she is surely not the most elegant or classy girl in kpop…what she wears is 80% of the tomes a miss for me, and she needs to close that mouth when she takes pics. personal tastes, of course)

  • BabyItsColdOustside

    Gna… For somebody who once said she wants to be known for her talent sure is showing more of her body than anything else. . Every photo I see of her, she is showing off either her legs or her cleavage (both this time).

    There is something just off putting about the way she looks in general. But I guess she has what Korea seems to like…. Which is more trampy than sexy. IMO that is.

      I usually don’t mind when a woman flaunts her body if she wants too, because it’s what she wants. More power to them actually.

      But with G.na the case is just off putting, she doesn’t like the attention her boobs get but puts them on display every chance she has. People would probably talk less if they weren’t out all the time, just saying.

      That aside, what I find is really tacky besides the tunic length and low cut neckline is the frilly see through crap on the shoulder. I think that particular part cheapens the look for me. And her roots need touch up.

  • Kpopboi

    lol, maybe its because I’m just a dude.

    but G.na looks smoking hot there.

    am I missing something ? haha

    As for Suzy, I think that the dress is age-appropriate. It is actually nice on her.  It’s the bag that ruined the outfit because it did not match the look.  She should have taken a backpack or a cute shoulder bag that does not shout “expensive” and it would have been perfect for me.

      I’m sorry but that looks likes someone a 6 year old would wear (Suzy). She’s a teenager not a kid

    I love Suzy’s outfit! Super cute!

  • Kyana

    G.NAs dress would be so pretty if it wasn’t so short. 

  • eh

    The pictures are a bit small and not really flattering to actually see the full out-fits. Victoria is the only one who looks remotely decent; but hardly something to go ga-ga over. The boys well…I’ll give Yesung more credit than Donghae. G.Na’s dress is tacky and so are the heels. Suzy’s look is a train-wreck.
