The fashion icon has worn a women’s jumper, launched his own fashion brand, and dyed his hair in rainbow colours
When it comes to fashion icons in K-pop, G-Dragon, who turns 30 today, is definitely one to look out for. The trend-setting superstar is currently on military assignment in South Korea, but his fashion moves remain legendary. Here are five of his most daring.
Unisex beauty: Wearing Chanel’s women’s wear in fashions shows
Unlike typical K-pop icons, G-Dragon has a sense of unisex beauty and temptation, which attracts many fashion followers. Heavy eyeliner, slim figure, feminine dressing style … G-Dragon challenges the stereotype of a male idol. And his unique mix of masculinity and femininity has won him a pass in the fashion world.
As a big fan of Chanel and a close friend to the maison’s head creative director Karl Lagerfeld, G-Dragon is always in the front row at Chanel’s fashion shows, and is bold enough to try its exquisite and elegant clothes. The fashion icon donned a black women’s jumper at Chanel’s 2018 Spring/Summer Ready-to-Wear show.
His long-term cooperation with Chanel has given him many opportunities in fashion. G-Dragon was announced as the brand’s ambassador in 2017, joining celebrities like Kristen Stewart, Cara Delevingne, Caroline de Maigret and Pharrell Williams. He has appeared in several Chanel fashion commercials.
Launching his own brand PeaceMinusOne: caps with long straps and clips lead the fashion trend
G-Dragon launched his fashion brand PeaceMinusOne in 2016, putting his fashion sense and design talent to use. The brand has been a huge hit.
