G-Dragon's latest music video has ignited a fashion frenzy with his 'scant' coordination, layering a skirt over pants. This bold style choice is indicative of a broader trend gaining momentum in the fashion world: layered looks.
Fashion platform Zigzag reports a surge in demand for layered apparel. Over the past month, sales of items like layered skirts and skirt pants have skyrocketed, with some categories seeing growth rates of over 2000%. This resurgence of the 'skirt pants' style, reminiscent of 1990s trends, reflects a modern reinterpretation of retro fashion.
Luxury brands such as Fendi, Dior, and Kate have also showcased similar layered styles in their latest spring/summer collections, further cementing the trend's relevance. Korean brands are quickly catching on, with Dunst already experiencing sell-outs of their layered skirt lines.
G-Dragon, known for his gender-fluid fashion choices, has been a key figure in popularizing this trend. His recent music video appearance, coupled with past public appearances sporting similar styles, has solidified the 'scant' look as a symbol of modern, genderless fashion. Other K-pop idols like Taemin and BTS have also embraced this style.
The fashion industry views this trend as more than just a fleeting fad. Layering is seen as an evolving and inclusive style that transcends gender boundaries. As layering continues to evolve, it's expected to remain a prominent trend for all fashion enthusiasts.
