I do not like cropped pants, Sam I Am, tho I probably wouldn’t have particularly noticed them on GD—it’s putting them on Taeyang that makes it such a noticeable crime (though at least he doesn’t have green suede loafers on).
But I love these guys playing the part of sharp dressers. This is a particularly well-done ensemble suiting, too, because it’s aware of the personas involved, and panders to them.
Both Daesung and Seungri are wearing skin-hugging jeans, because for some reason they are the metros of the group, but Seungri’s got the light-hearted plaid while Daesung has a more restrained grey-scale check. Throw something at Taeyang that’s almost as odd as what G-Dragon is wearing. Let TOP carry the straight-up look so the rest look like hiphop renditions.
I geek out a bit about Big Bang, I know.
There was one more buried in my favorites. Don’t shoot me.
But what is up with this crystal furniture, and where did they get it together for this shoot from? The down-the-rabbit-hole scale of the lamp, shaped like the ones on end-tables, makes GD’s character almost overshadowed.
The brilliant red velvet of that chair also kind of overshadows the fact that its legs are translucent, too.
Seriously, where is this, and what does it all mean?
I can’t help it. This shoot was fascinating.
Why does he look like such a manga character? Even the flappy boot-tops make him look a character from the Akuma De Sourou series, some tsundere rich-class boy who has been hiding his true face, and just dyed his hair to try and rebel and get the heroine’s attention…but it’s not working.

Further evidence of hot pink awesome. I thought these two posts were great just as they were, so I wanted to post both instead of refashioning them.

Also, why does GD have such pretty hands? I really don’t envy anything else here but that. (Okay, and the shiny pants. I have some, but they’re cheap and too small right now.)

Good goodness me. I’ve been on the fence over the bubble-gum pink on GD, but his sheer presence in this crossover fashion shoot…

If only for that sheer shirt with the tattoo showing through, I am totally for it.

This bottom right shot, also, makes me think unholy Loli-loving thoughts.

…how do I even tag this, except as “relevant to my interests”?

This is a little tame for GD, bling on the boots and jacket the only real off-beat element. But does he do it well.
Everyone should get a chance for a bit of a James Dean/Marlon Brando portrait, and this setting brings some grit to the otherwise upscale outfit—I love chainlink as a texture element, love that this fence is strung back together.
I also would love to have some leather-like pants with that awesome crinkle.
I just adore these boots, with the simple coloring of black accents against such a sheer white surface. I’ve seen them before, I think GD likes them to. He’s certainly showing them off with the length of that trouser…
This is a perfect casual but fashion-awake outfit—no one of the pieces is outrageous, each of them has that look of being a thing the wearer personally likes, and they go together seamlessly.

hey bro
Dear Crazy-Fashionista-GD: never change.
I mean, change your clothes and concept all the time as usual, but not…not this. The madcap ability to sell ridiculous glam-rock-vampire looks with a single facial contortion.
There is just so much going on in this photograph, and none of it matters, because…G-Dragon.
(There are probably tons of guys being accused of being the “Asian Johnny Depp”, and the Byung-Hee character played by Lee Min-Ki was totally on target that way, but for actual through-and-through original who creates personas to embody, I’m not sure anyone rivals Kwon Ji-Yong.)

Kilts. Do they make sense for this collection? No. And yet…

G-Dragon is pretty enough here you’d think there’d be more of a look of androgyny—especially with all this lace. But instead it just looks visual-kei macho. How does this work?

No comments. Just think this look wouldn’t work for me unless I’d seen it in black in white first, but it is oddly dashing.
Breaking it up a little with an ensemble.
My favorite is actually the plaid shirt with the sleeves rolled—though I’d like it better if there was a contrasting undershirt showing where it’s rolled. I always cry inside when I can’t buy that stuff off the mannequin…
Is it me or is Seungri weirdly macho these days?
What a fantastic shot. I feel like g-dragon’s getting more subtle with his crazy, so much so I didn’t capitalize his name… And TOP continues to stay outrageous yet classy.
Win. WIN.
G-Dragon! Another surprisingly low-key outfit from the Gaga-rivaling fashioniste, just enough clash to make it a G-Dragon special.

Dear Elle Korea:

Thank you for making girls’ dreams come true everywhere.

While you’re at it, can I have whichever of these jackets is closest to fitting me? I promise it will not look the same once I’m wearing it…

Again, Top is just a shade off from a classic, actual look, and G-Dragon is making a really non-fashionable look seem just a highlighter to his personality.

I so love your stylists, guys.
