F(x)’s Victoria, Krystal and Sulli, Song Ji-hyo, Se7en, Lee Yeon-hee, Lee Si Young, Hwang Jung-eum, Chun Jung-myung and many other celebrities attended the annual Marc by Marc Jacobs Fall / Winter 2010 show at 916 Building, Gangnam, Seoul, on the 24th of August 2010. The celebrities who attended the show were all decked in various Marc by Marc Jacobs apparels and accessories on the red carpet.

Over at Seoul’s Jamshil Olympic Stadium, SM Town Live ‘10 World Tour officially kicked-start with a press conference before the reported 6-hour long concert! SM artists who attended this press conference include Kangta, BoA, U-Know & Changmin of DBSK, Super Junior, SHINee, Girls’ Generation, f(x), CSJH The Grace, Zhang Liyin, The TRAX, Go Ara, Lee Yeong Hee and more.

Even though we can’t be there physically to cover this highly-anticipated event, the stream of photos coming in are enough to fill our excitement! Let’s take a look!

Media would never fail to make comparison between the Jung Sisters, Jessica & Krystal

Actress Go Ara (with Girls’ Generation Taeyeon) appears sophisticated in this black one-piece.

And who’s this lanky lady that SHINee’s Onew is giving way to?

It’s none other than actress Lee Yeon Hee from popular drama East of Eden. Yeon Hee stands out from the crowd in her refreshing red tube dress and her black ankle boots.

And here are more photos from the press conference :

Who do you think dressed the best? Personally, I loved BoA’s and Girls’ Generation Soo Young’s looks best; simple yet so elegant and stylish. Stay tuned as we identify the designers that the celebrities were decked in!

With lips full of shiny silver rhinestones, f(x)’s maknae, Krystal brings a whole new look in Nylon Korea. In this edition, she ‘blings’ up the issue and shines like no other.

This 15-year-old shows us that all you need is just some light and simple make up to pull off an elegant, sophisticated and glamorous look. Sometimes, girls, you don’t need such heavy make up to pull off a glamorous look. Take it from Krystal herself, she looks fabulous with some pale lipstick and just a dash of eyeliner.

What do you guys think? I really like the concept for this photoshoot! Maybe f(x) should do something like this for their next album?

Just last week, celebrities like SNSD’s Jessica, f(x)’s Sulli and Krystal, Kim Jung Eun, Jo Yeo Jung, Hwang Woo Seul Hye, Lee Si Young and Miss A attended the grand opening of Tory Burch’s flagship store in Cheongdam-dong, Seoul.

In the studded high heels by Tory Burch is Kim Jung Eun.

Upcoming JYP Entertainment girl group, Miss A, stole the limelight by choosing to debut through this event rather than the conventional method of music shows.

SNSD’s Jessica looking absolutely fabulous in these Rosun Lace Up Sandals, while f(x)’s Krystal and Sulli accessorize with clutches.

And of course we cannot forget the main star of the event, Tory Burch herself! Check out the full Tory Burch collection here!

No, I’m not talking about Big Bang’s T.O.P. but a genuine shirt that seems to be popular amongst both actors and idols alike.

Take a look for yourselves and judge:

The top that has captured the attention of these two is a design by designer Christopher Kane. I think all parties involved pulled the look off quite well. For f(x)’s Sulli, she brings a cute feel to the shirt as like the doll face print on the shirt itself, Sulli is cute and bubbly, and it brings out the youth in her. Her touch of a pearl necklace also somehow brings out a hint of elegance in the entire overall look. Actor Kang Dong Won, despite the design being doll face printed, he seems to be able to make it look like very natural and simple.

As for Big Bang’s Daesung, I think the black leather biker jacket fits very well with the concept of the doll face printed shirt. Donning on his dark blue denim jeans, everything falls in nicely in the end, and the look is completely with a pair of black studded high tops. In my opinion, I think Daesung has a bright personality and smile that would be able to pull off almost any look he dons on.

The Doll Face Jersey T-shirt by Christopher Kane can be found here the price of €161 (an estimated USD$198).

After seeing the two pull off this very unique top, who do you think brings out the flavor of uniqueness for this top better? What do you think? Do you think you could pull off the same look as them and still look natural? Drop us a comment with your opinion!

You’ve seen the men, most of them going for the beast concept or donning the classic suits — but now, let’s get the lowdown on the ladies’ performance outfits for the Dream Concert 2010!

Each year, the ladies’ performances get fiercer and fiercer, as they start shedding their cute images and experimenting with sexier outfits and consequently teasing with more skin. I’m sure the fanboys are not complaining! Who was the fiercest of them all in last night’s ball?

Find out below as we line up the performance outfits of your favorite female KPop idols:

The girls of Rainbow went the schoolgirl route with their song, Gossip Girl.

However, they should have just kept the Blair Waldorf school girl look rather than trying to mix it up with the black and white stripes, because this only ended up making the concept/theme look all over the place. Their outfits were a bit blah and too casual for me. And for something as big as the Dream Concert, there’s really no room for safe dressing.

No change of outfit for our f(x) girls tonight, too!

Like SHINee, their male counterparts in the SM Family, the outfits of f(x) went straight from the red carpet to the stage, wearing amped-up red variations of their Nu ABO outfits. I am loving the girls’ unique, experimental style — you’ve got to admit, they don’t fit into the cookie-cutter styling of other girl groups who are all either: a) cute/girly b) fierce/sexy c) funky/Lady-Gaga-inspired.

Although, Amber? Plaid shorts over jeans? I don’t get it.

The ladies of Davichi were a tad bit underdressed.

White blazer and light denim shorts — while this outfit does look good in general — this is something you’d wear for a dinner with friends, or even to the mall. Not the Dream Concert. Note to Davichi’s stylist: that small amount of gold sequins don’t automatically make anything glamorous.

T-ara transformed into Korea’s cheerleaders that night as they performed their World Cup song.

The fanboys also loved it when they continued to sing Bo Peep in these outfits. While cheerleading outfits are a surefire crowdpleaser, they could have done more variations for every individual’s outfit other than the different pins and brooches they put on their skirts. Also, not a big fan of the huge “Cielo ♥ Egoist” print on their shirts.

Fresh off their first few comeback stages, 4Minute stuck to neutral tones tonight, but still managed to keep things interesting.

I think their stylist/s pulled off a great feat: the girls’ outfits looked mismatched and unique–but similar enough to still look coordinated. Still lacking that extra wow factor though! (Although Hyuna’s fiery red hair and hot dance skills more than compensates for that!)

And we see a re-appearance of the black and white stripes, this time on the gorgeous women of After School.

It is very disappointing because I’ve seen versions of their drummer girl costumes which are LEAGUES better than these striped, shimmery ones. I personally would recommend their simple red-and-gold or black-and-gold ones, because these drummer outfits (and their bare navels and long legs) are stunning in themselves, and could have looked fantastic onstage.

First look at Kara and the word ‘mermaids’ would probably come to mind.

Okay, while these outfits may seem too gaudy and slinky for most, we have to remember that these are stage outfits. When you’ve got a huge crowd of fans, most of which can only see a dancing speck on stage–the flashier and shinier, the better. Kara made the boldest color choice that night, and that deserves some merit. Although yes, the mermaid-like material is disturbing, and they could have gone with black footwear.

Korea’s original pop princesses are back, but their Dream Concert appearance has me crying 2 Different Tears.

First, I’m crying for joy: I love seeing the Wonder Girls back in Korea! Second, I’m crying because of their outfits! Unflattering light denim + scraps of lace + neon hair add-ons? And this from the girl group who captured the hearts of the entire world in their all-out retro concept for Nobody! Who can forget those iconic colorful mod dresses and those scene-stealing flapper dresses?

Girls, you better step your fashion game up!

Girls’ Generation channeled the King of Pop again that night!

Their Michael Jackson inspired black military jackets with strong, sequined shoulders made the girls look classy and stunning. Their looks were made even more interesting and stage-appropriate with their shiny tank tops and leather knee-high boots. If you noticed, it was the perfect mix of their Run Devil Run and Oh! concepts.

The Queen of KPop is back and looking younger and fiercer than ever!

Really, who else at the age of 31 can pull off this outfit but Lee Hyori? Her military-inspired, tough chick outfit was simple, but nobody can doubt the powerful impression it made! An outfit, indeed, is only as good as how its wearer carries it. And nobody does it like Lee Hyori.

Overall, many of the ladies could have done a lot better. Or is the Dream Concert not as much of a big event as the year-end music festivals? What do you think? Tell us in the comments below!

You’ve seen what the guys were spotted in for the Dream Concert 2010 red carpet. Now, let’s take a look at what the beautiful ladies are wearing on the Dream Concert 2010 red carpet! Seen on the red carpet are f(x), 4Minute, After School, T-ara and SNSD; however, female performers, Rainbow, KARA, Lee Hyori, Davichi and Wondergirls are missing in action.

The ladies’ were all pretty well-dressed for the red carpet- I’m especially in love with their lovely shoes! While SNSD are in pretty little white dresses, 4Minute and T-ara were all glammed up in black, rocker-vibe outfits, and After School, while they were not in a coordinated color, were still looking awesome in their smart casual outfits. f(x), on the other hand, were spotted in the same set of outfit for the red carpet and their performance (a tad disappointing).

Check it out, and remember to vote and leave a comment at the end of the post.

No change of outfit for f(x) girls, who went straight from the red carpet to the stage, wearing varied outfits from their Nu ABO album concept. Though no change, I’m still loving their layered, street-styled outfits, especially Sulli’s monochromatic layered look with her oversized printed jacket.

And yes, I still don’t get Amber’s plaid shorts over jeans look.

Check out Sulli’s interesting eye make-up!

4Minute were glammed up in black outfits and gorgeous platform heels and boots. The girls are looking fierce in these outfits that are similar to what they are spotting in their ‘HUH’ Hit Your Heart mini album concept photos.

Red-haired HyunA is seen here wearing the Gucci ‘Venus’ high heel platform sandals.

After School looked sexy in smart-casual outfits on the red carpets of Dream Concert 2010. Cute dresses, hot trousers outfits, and of course, lust-worthy platform heels are seen on the After School members. I have to say that I love their red carpet outfits much more than their ‘cheerleader’ stage outfits.

T-ara were seen in little black dresses (LBD) on the red carpet. Love the peep-toe ankle boots that the girls are sporting; however, the five of them wearing the same pair of heels make the group-look seem weird.

SNSD / Girls’ Generation were all seen in white mini-dresses in different designs. Love some of the cutting and designs of these dresses; however, some of these dresses are either too ‘normal’ or too weird-looking. My favorite would be Yuri’s outfit, and my least favorite would be Tiffany’s (I don’t understand the shredded white strips on the skirting).

Jessica is seen wearing the Christian Louboutin Studio 120 peep-toe pumps.

Kokokoreano’s choice for the best-dressed is After School! Worst-dressed? T-ara.

Tell us what you think.

Avant-garde fashion stars, G-dragon, Lee Hyori, Yoon Eun Hye, Ha Ji Won and Kim Hye Soo are dressed in beautiful blend of trends.

f(x) girls Amber, Luna, Sulli, Krystal, Victoria’s Chapter 3 official pictures are out! I’m loving most of their outfits, but I feel that should have gotten a nicer background for the shoot.

They have some cute accessories though ^^

Photos…

Amber’s super oversized grey sweater actually looks really nice (and comfy)! And her crown makes her look like a little prince. Cute~

Luna’s scarf plus hat ensemble looks so… weird?

She looks pretty; should have tried some structured mini dress or something!

I love Krystal’s sequin hat/beret!

Sulli! Love her jumpsuit; should have better accessories though.

Victoria looks CUTE!!!

…

I wonder which ‘chapter’ will they release till… Hmmm…

Love,

Lynette
