Jacket Styles

As the temperature has dropped, heavier outerwear is a much needed addition to your wardrobe. From classy to comfy, there is a wide range of jackets you can choose from that not only suit you but are inspired by your favorite Korean celebrities! 

Long Blazer Jacket

A long blazer jacket is the perfect outerwear piece for keeping warm and staying chic. Keeping it in neutral colors like beige and black makes it easy to layer over many different styles and to accessorize with scarves and hats. Many Korean dramas will use a variety of these classic long jackets for their cast and are a great place to look for inspiration. The popular drama Goblin displays a wide range of chic styles that can inspire you while you watch!

Long Puffer Jacket

When it gets into the winter months, a puffy jacket is a must-have item. As it was a previous trend from the ‘90s, the puffer jacket has made its way back and has become a continuous trend in Korea for the past few years. The long black puffer jacket has been a particular key item that covers your whole body and keeps you warm. Many idols such as BTS, BLACKPINK, and MONSTA X can be seen repping and advertising this style. 

Athletic Jacket

Activewear has become another popular trend that is both comfortable and fashionable. From celebrity ads, variety shows, hip-hop videos, and even the ISAC sport competition, tracksuits are constantly worn by different Korean celebrities such as GOT7 and ZICO. Athletic jackets can bring a fun pop of color to an everyday outfit.

Leather Jackets

Leather jackets are another classic style that can become a staple in your wardrobe. From a cropped leather jacket to oversized, there are many different ways to wear one. Celebrities such as Sunmi and Momo from TWICE sometimes wear a leather jacket with jeans in their daily looks to add an edge to their classic outfits.

Jean Jacket

Jean jackets are a versatile piece that can add an extra flare to any look; they are perfect for a casual look and can even become a statement piece to an outfit with different cuts and styles. For example, IU’s iconic jean jacket, skirt, and hat combo from the Korean drama Hotel Del Luna has bold gold dollar sign embellishments on it. The jean jacket, however, is most frequently seen on different Korean celebrities, such as Kai from EXO, for their airport fashion.
