7 K-Pop It Girls Who Are Rocking The Summer Mermaid Chic Trend

Nostalgia is a major hit in the fashion world right now, and there’s something so whimsical and sweet about mermaid chic that feels just right! In the late summer heat, it’s the perfect way to make the style fit the season. Whether you’re 50 feet or 500 miles from the beach, these K-pop It Girls are proving that a little seaside magic is always in for the summer.

Red Velvet’s Joy

During Red Velvet’s promotion for their recent comeback song “Surfin’ Boy,” the members have been serving some seriously stunning mermaid looks. This outfit from Joy is especially gorgeous – the flowing, draped fabric of the skirt is reminiscent of a mermaid’s tail! It’s the perfect choice for a fun summer party when you really want to make a splash.

LE SSERAFIM’s Huh Yun Jin

If you prefer a bit more of a laid-back look in your day-to-day life, Huh Yun Jin of LE SSERAFIM is your new style icon! Her brand of mermaid chic is perfectly chill while still exuding glamor. By choosing a shiny fabric in jewel tones for her top and letting her long hair flow down her shoulders, it’s almost like she’s a mermaid off-duty!

BABYMONSTER’s Chiquita

Ariel, is that you!? Nope, it’s BABYMONSTER’s Chiquita! You’d be forgiven for mistaking her for a Disney princess though—her red hair, ruffled dress, and delicate jewelry are the perfect princess combo. The small details truly make the outfit, so take a few tips from Chiquita next time you’re dressing up: a pearl necklace is a mermaid’s best accessory!

aespa’s Winter

A dress doesn’t necessarily have to be formal. Winter of aespa proves that they’re the perfect casual piece too! If you just want to throw on an outfit and get out the door, a loose, lacy summer dress is the perfect choice. It makes you instantly look put-together and like you just got back from the beach! Bonus points for voluminous beach waves tied back in braids too.

i-dle’s Miyeon

i-dle’s Miyeon has totally nailed mermaid chic, it seems. With elements of her look in blue, pink, green, and white, she’s shining like mother of pearl! By adding green eyeshadow and pink highlight to her makeup, she turns what might otherwise be a simple blue dress and white gloves into something fit for any mermaid princess. It’s all about the details!

Sunmi

If you can’t stand the heat and the thought of wearing anything that isn’t shorts and a shirt is too much, Sunmi has your back! She brings in all of the mermaid glamor through her accessories and styling choices alone. Peep the specifics—shiny nail polish, over-the-top pearl jewelry, voluminous wavy hair, and a little adventurous eyeshadow says it all!

BLACKPINK’s Jisoo

Last but not least, BLACKPINK’s Jisoo! She’s what every mermaid wants to be when they grow up. If you’re not a fan of ruffles and pearls, the beach-y vibes can still be achieved through linen and gold. Add a little blue eyeshadow, and voilà! The result is a mermaid that’s rocking the old-school cool. It’s a surprisingly grown-up look, but not boring in the slightest.

Watch: Sunmi, Girls’ Generation’s Tiffany Young, And VIXX’s Leo Take Over “Amazing Saturday” In Fun Preview

Get ready for a fun episode of “Amazing Saturday” featuring several idols who shaped the K-pop scene in the 2010s!

The popular tvN variety show has revealed a sneak peek of its upcoming episode, which will feature Sunmi, GIrls’ Generation’s Tiffany Young, and VIXX’s Leo (Jung Taek Woon) as guests.

The new preview begins by revealing that the theme for the episode is “Back to the 2010s.” Host Boom then assures Sunmi that “Amazing Saturday” cast members Kim Dong Hyun, Nucksal, and DAY6’s Young K will take care of promoting her new comeback song over the course of the show. But even without their help, Sunmi impresses everyone by revealing that she was able to catch most of the lyrics during the show’s signature guessing game.

Next, Tiffany proves she’s serious about promoting her upcoming musical “Yumi’s Cells,” even going so far as to become the first guest to hand out pamphlets to the cast on the show. Even after she’s already talked about the musical, Tiffany doesn’t miss an opportunity to promote it, and her bandmate Taeyeon explains, “She’s here on a mission today.”

Later, when the topic of Girls’ Generation’s recent unit HyoRiSoo comes up, Tiffany playfully suggests that it’s time for TaeTiSeo to step up and take them on. She and Taeyeon also take the floor to dance to TaeTiSeo’s iconic hit “Twinkle,” with Block B’s P.O hilariously stepping in to take Seohyun’s place.

Finally, Leo, who will be starring opposite Tiffany in the musical version of “Yumi’s Cells,” gets adorably nervous during the show. At one point, he wipes sweat off his forehead; at another, Tiffany explains that his energy is drained because he’s an extreme introvert. Leo gets so shy that he even asks Moon Se Yoon to help him explain the taste of a food dish he’s eating, only to have everyone point out with a laugh that Moon Se Yoon hasn’t eaten it yet.

Sunmi, Tiffany, and Leo’s episode of “Amazing Saturday” will air on July 18 at 7:30 p.m. KST. In the meantime, check out the new preview below!
