Blame it on Filipinos’ love of K-drama, blame it on the quarantine, blame it on the binge-worthy plot and relatable characters. Blame it on whatever, but one thing’s certain: these Korean drama shows sure have some fashionable characters and drool-worthy ensembles.
In the latest K-drama fashion roundup, after the well-loved Crash Landing On You, we list down a few of the designer bags Jo Yi-Seo (played by Kim Da-Mi) in Itaewon Class totes around all cool and classy.
Power blogger and DanBam manager Jo Yi-Seo is the queen of cool with her Loewe Gate Mini Bumbag (P83,000), a chic belt bag she pairs with oversized coat.
Sparkly but tough, that’s the vibe Yi-Seo exudes in her black and gray outfit punctuated by a small Alexander McQueen Jeweled Satchel (approx. P121,990).
Yi-Seo is the girl many Itaewon Class fans want to be when she totes two arm candies in Episode 7, a Loewe Mini Lazo Tote (P98,100) on her right and Park Seo-ro-yi (played by Park Seo-joon) on her left.
It’s leather on leather as Yi-Seo pairs a black Valentino Garavani Candystud Quilted Leather Shoulder Bag (approx. P121,200) with a black leather jacket.
In her transformation (spoiler alert!) from bar-restaurant manager to company CFO, Yi-Seo swaps her leather jackets for more structured suits but with the same edgy style.
A structured and solid-colored Mrs. Thom Mini Crossbody Bag (approx. P127,600) stands out from her bold checkered trench coat.
Complementing her corporate-cool look in Episode 14 is an equally chic and cool arm candy, the Bottega Veneta BV Twist (approx. P78,900).
Bucket bags get much-deserved attention when Yi-Seo wears a black and tan Loewe Balloon Bag (P169,800) in the final episode.
