Seoul Street Style: 5 Fashion Trends Defining Winter 2025

The streets of Seoul are essentially a giant open-air runway. In Winter 2025, the K-Fashion trends sweeping through vibrant districts like Hongdae and Seongsu-dong are characterized by a mix of boldness and comfort.

Want to raid the closets of Korean fashionistas? Here are the 5 key items you absolutely cannot miss this season.

1. The Evolution of 'Gorpcore'

Outdoor wear worn as everyday street style has become even more sophisticated. Think technical Windbreakers or Cargo Pants, but styled with a cropped or slim fit to keep it looking "hip," not like you're actually going hiking.

2. Super Oversized Puffer

Short puffer jackets are in, but the volume is turned up to 11. It should look almost like you wore your duvet out!

• Style Tip: Match a massive puffer on top with tight leggings or skinny jeans on the bottom to create a cute yet slimming silhouette.

3. Y2K Leg Warmers

Is it the NewJeans effect? Leg warmers from the 2000s are back as a must-have item. Layer chunky knit leg warmers over UGG boots or sneakers. Not only does it keep you warm, but it also creates a visual effect that makes your legs look longer!

4. Balaclava

The Balaclava trend from last year returns with more variety in colors and textures. A colorful knit hood framing your face adds an instant point to a dull winter outfit. Plus, it keeps your ears warm and makes your face look smaller (a huge plus in K-Beauty standards!).

5. Vegan Leather

Value consumption is hitting the fashion world. Vegan Leather Jackets, made from plant-based or recycled materials, are the top choice for cool "Seoul Unnies" (older sisters). They offer the edge of leather without the environmental guilt.

Styling Tip: Mix & Match K-Fashion is all about breaking rules. Wear a sporty puffer with a feminine long skirt. Wear rugged boots with cute leg warmers. If you feel good, it's fashion!

Bring the hot energy of Seoul straight to your wardrobe.
