BTS is back on tour, and honestly? The outfits are doing something to us. Every night is a whole moment, but J-Hope? He is on another level entirely.
The man walked out in a crisp white button-down and straight denim jeans during their El Paso concert, and honestly, the classic look had us in a chokehold. Just two pieces. That’s it. And we were finished.
In his video while doing the Brazilian 67 dance trend, white shirt front-tucked, it was clear we need to rock this look, especially this summer.
Not a crease out of place. We don’t know his stylist personally, but we feel like we should send flowers.
Because that’s the thing about a white shirt and blue jeans. It looks simple until someone like J-Hope puts it on and suddenly it looks like it belongs on a runway in Seoul.
And women are running with it. Office girls. Street style girls. Girls going on dates, running errands, heading to class.
Everyone is taking the same two pieces and making them completely their own.
Oversized shirts, cropped shirts, tucked or half-tucked ,wide-leg jeans, barrel jeans, distressed, clean — the combinations keep on coming.
So we pulled over 30 of our favourite recreations together. Because if J-Hope taught us anything, it’s that the most classic outfit is always the most powerful one.
