Lunar New Year styling ideas from Giselle, Hyeri, Jisoo, and more

The Lunar New Year doesn’t require head-to-toe red, but it does call for a touch of it. Here’s how to wear the festive colour in a way that feels effortless and considered

Hyeri once styled a fairly neutral outfit with a red leather mini bag from Max Mara, instantly adding a pop of energy and brightness to the look. This approach is ideal for those who don’t usually gravitate towards bold colours. Just one single red accessory is enough to create a holiday ready outfit without disrupting your personal style.

Blackpink’s Jisoo has worn a red buttoned cardigan with clean lines and a simple silhouette, allowing the colour to appear refined rather than overly sweet. Meanwhile, Le Sserafim’s Sakura used a deep red faux-fur jacket as her outer layer, turning it into the focal point of the outfit.

When Aespa’s Giselle appeared with red hair, the rest of her styling leaned deliberately minimal, allowing the hair colour to stand as the sole statement. This requires a strong sense of balance, but it also proves that red doesn’t have to appear in clothing. One clear visual focal point is enough to convey a festive mood.

Twice’s Nayeon incorporated festive colour into a casual street-style look with a red cap from Twinbuta. Positioned close to the face, the colour brightens the complexion without overwhelming the outfit. It’s a practical choice for holiday outings or visiting family, when comfort is key.

Shoes

In another look, Hyeri opted for Ferragamo’s red Vara shoes. The red doesn’t demand attention at first glance, but naturally reveals itself in movement, adding a layer of subtle detail. Compared to red tops or outerwear, red footwear feels more restrained. Also, they are more wearable for long hours.
