A beloved member of BLACKPINK, Kim Ji-soo, also known as Jisoo or Sooyaa, has been making waves for quite some time. The K-pop star is not just a music powerhouse, but a fashion force in the truest sense. Jisoo’s best style moments constantly inspire fans, each showcasing her fashion prowess that is effortlessly chic and undeniably her.

From her debut as a lead vocalist for the girl group in 2016 to breaking records with one billion streams on her solo album ME (2023) while also gracing the screen with her presence in the TV series Snowdrop (2021), Jisoo has aced the idol life. She has also been the global ambassador for Dior Fashion and Dior Beauty since March 2021. Her name thus became synonymous with the French Maison, earning her the nickname ‘human Dior’ or ‘Dior princess’ from her fans. Jisoo is also the brand ambassador for Cartier and the face of fashion brands like Alo Yoga, Self Portrait and Dunst.

As reflected in her stage wardrobe, red carpet and promotional event looks, Jisoo embodies the feminine and elegant vision of Dior, favouring A-line and plaid dresses as well as mini and midi skirts. When not in the limelight, she’s seen in a more casual look that includes oversized knitwear, T-shirts, wide pants and floral dresses, always accessorised with a signature Dior handbag.

Style yourself like Jisoo, with the Blackpink star’s iconic fashion moments

Dior’s princess look

In the heart of Seoul, the global ambassador of Dior graced the LadyDior Celebration exhibition with her signature poise, wearing a meticulously designed DiorAW23 princess gown by Maria Grazia Chiuri. Jisoo paired it with pointed pumps and a Lady Dior bag with the iconic ‘cannage’ pattern. You can channel Jisoo’s style in a similar ball dress that echoes your signature style.

Off-shoulder glamour

To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of the Cartier Trinity series in Singapore at The Arts House, Jisoo wore The Mina Rafia golden brown, off-shoulder mini dress from Italian brand GCDS Spring 2024. Being a fashion icon in her own right, Jisoo’s elegant dress is the perfect inspiration for date-night outfits and evening parties.

Cosy in layers

For her 2023 Paris lookbook, Jisoo was seen in a cosy outfit, embracing the layering trend with a white top, animal-printed fuzzy knit jacket and flared grey jeans. She accessorised with the Miss Dior mini bag and Nike Airforce 1 sneakers. Inspired by this simple yet trendy ensemble, you can recreate a similar look for a foreign trip or even a casual city outing.

Matrix-inspired winter look

The key to dressing like the South Korean style icon is to mix and match pieces. Jisoo wore a Matrix-inspired leather trench coat with a turtleneck top and cream wide-legged pants, finally rounding off the whole look with chunky black boots. Balancing the grunge vibe, she wore a vintage 1960s Cartier watch, renowned for its distinctive Crash design — a shape inspired by a damaged Cartier watch involved in a car accident during the 1960s.

Jisoo carried a black CD signature oval camera bag from Maria Grazia Chiuri’s Dior Fall 2023 collection to complement the overall aesthetic. For a similar winter ensemble, incorporate statement wintry pieces like a trench coat, double-breasted blazer or stockings with a mini skirt or dress.

Two-piece classic

In November 2023, Jisoo and other band members were invited to Buckingham Palace to receive an MBE from King Charles. Gracing the occasion with her signature elegance, she was seen wearing a Dior fitted, short-sleeve jacket and a mid-length, straight-cut skirt. The dress was complemented by the Métamorphose belt, an oval bag and sandals from the same brand with Trinity earrings, finger rings and the Crash watch from Cartier.

Jisoo’s masterful execution of formal wear, like this look, is a lesson in confidence and elegant fashion.

Off-duty carefree style

Jisoo carries off hyper-feminine silhouettes playfully in her off-duty styles. Rocking Acne Studios’ tie-dye wrap dress with slit, cut-out shoulders, this Parisian summer day outfit looks good on her. Jisoo further added a ‘girl-next-door’ touch to her sporty-stylish ensemble, by adding a Dior book tote and Walk’n’dior sneakers. You can put this ensemble together for brunch with friends or weekend getaways.

Black and bling

One of Jisoo’s best style instances during the Born Pink concert in Sydney (2022) was the LEEWÉI Pidey skort, featuring a leather knot along with a sequinned, halter-neck top. Ravishing and gorgeous, you can let your inner dance queen shine with this two-piece ensemble. This statement outfit is the ultimate Jisoo-inspired pick to channel her confidence for your next disco night or music event.

Street style

Dressed like a GenZ icon on her day out, Jisoo posted some happy pictures of herself in a basic cropped zip hoodie, T-shirt and high-waist cargo trousers from ALO, alongside a large croissant bag from Lemaire and Adidas Samba OG shoes. Proving basics can be anything but boring, Jisoo’s casual and chic outfits are just the right inspiration to add some fun to regular wear. You can incorporate this look for a day out with friends.

Switch up things by adding trendy sunglasses, or a bandana or replacing the cargo pants with wide-legs jeans or even a midi skirt.

Casual and chic

The K-pop idol took to her Instagram handle to share photos from her France vacation in a casual yet chic ensemble. She wore a striped, black-and-white sleeveless top paired with black wide trousers and styled with a black cap, white sneakers and a classic black Dior bag. Comfortable, stylish and versatile, the look is perfect for a day of exploration.

For windy days or a touch of warmth, you can amp up the outfit by layering it with a denim jacket.

Ethereal in tulle

At the BLACKPINK Born Pink World Tour (2023) in Seoul, Jisoo dolled up in a nude crystal tulle gown from the British luxury brand Aadnevik and paired it with Cartier earrings. The couture gown, designed for her All Eyes On Me performance, shimmered with lace embellishments, a dainty sparkly ribbon and layers of tulle. Completing the mesmerising look, she had peep-toe glitter pumps to go along with the outfit.

If you are preparing for a lavish party, make a statement in a similar gown with a sequinned bodice.

Effortless vacation style

Jisoo’s Los Angeles adventures served up major style inspiration. Seen at the Getty Center and other tourist spots in California, the Blackpink idol wore a flowy R13 Tape tie grunge slip dress with Courreges wave logo sandals. Accessorising it with a Fujifilm camera in place of a sling bag, Jisoo’s stunning combination is everything we desire for our holiday ensembles.

Timeless glam

Some of Jisoo’s best style moments were at the Born Pink World Tour in Riyadh (2023). She looked exquisite, wearing a Nana Jacqueline dress. Romantic and chic, the red and black off-shoulder outfit combination in velvet stunned the audience and the diamond embellishments shimmered under the stage lights. Exuding an aura of timeless glamour, you can wear this for a variety of special occasions — from an intimate dinner date to a music concert and cocktail parties.
