This is not the first time that Blackpink has melded Korean traditional elements into their fashion.
Taking the stage at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival last Saturday in southern California, as the first headlining K-pop girl group, Blackpink also used the historic moment to turn the world's attention to hanbok, Korean traditional dress.
These hanbok outfits designed by Kumdanje and OUWR, decorated with Rimm's butterfly brooch on the shoulders, were worn by Blackpink at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival Indio, California, on Saturday. – Photo: Kumdanje/OUWR The outfits also came in tune with the stage backdrop, which featured elements from the tiled roofs and eaves of traditional Korean houses or hanok – the exact features incorporated into OUWR's signature"cheoma"-patterned shoulder bands on the four jackets.
