the maneskin dressed in this way out of provocation, because an ignorant and mentally closed Italian politician with the surname pillon, had criticized them for dressing in an eccentric and genderless way, damian in response to the politician said that at the next show they would dressed in a bow tie (papillon in Italian, thus creating a pun with the politician's surname) may seem boring than usual, but he was fully aware.
Yeah, not sure this was planned as a protest - as I doubt Gucci provided these suits in less than a week between EMAs and AMAs 🙄 I much prefer the idea this was a tribute to Four Seasons. In any case, it would be great if Luke could review some of Måneskin's other red carpet / performance looks ❤️
I'm not sure I understand. How is it provocative if they're basically giving in to societal pressure instead of doing whatever tf they want like usual?
the Maneskin actually normally have a really eclectic kind of style but they all wore smokings to protest to a very homophobic italian senator that made several comments about Damanio wearing too "femenines" stuff... So, yeah, not their most intriguing style but well worthing one

@Marija M actually I think they have their fair amount of wardrobe prepare for them, since they’re now representing the Gucci brand, but in that case, they said that next event they would be wearing a paPillon (that senator’s surname is Pillon) to “honor” him (sarcasm warning)
i would just like to add that the “tie” things on bts’ suits are actually hanbok knots! hanboks are traditional korean clothing so it was nice to see them representing their culture on the carpet
I read an article talking about all the details in BTS’s looks that we’re inspired by the hanbok! I think it was in VOGUE. Personally, I liked their looks, but generally agree that they are boring on US red carpets. Their street style clothes for the My Universe stage were really good and clearly individualized. Additionally, their Butter performance suits were amazing!
My mom also is an army and told me all about this, how the knots pay tribute to traditional korean hanbok, the belts being folded similarly to a 고름 (goreum I think would be the English pronunciation) but she was proud that they were able to do that and while I also do agree that the styles were quite dull and wish the stylist would showcase them more, I was glad they were able to show that part of the culture on such a big event
I am a bit confused with their styling on the red carpet, let me explain. Often for photo shoots and their videos I feel they are very liberated and free and experimental. And then red carpet happens and I’m like “ok, what is this”. I have a theory, I am probably wrong, but I think that they have been shamed for being colorful and therefore gay (not my opinion, nor I think colorful is gay, just saying what I’ve seen over social medias) so they avoid being like that for American market. Don’t know…
@@nv2605 I agree, I feel like stylists want to downplay the outfits so bts would be taken more seriously. They already get enough smack talk just by being a Asian boy group
BTS getting styled always feels so weird because they have a really individual style, and really understand how to put an outfit together, yet when they are styled for a red carpet clearly whoever is putting the outfits together is just trying to make them look like a group instead of having this individual flair and still feeling cohesive. I think the stage outfits they wore for either of their performances (or the clothes they changed into after the first one) would have had more of an impact
i think it’s because they’re still using korean stylists (maybe idk for sure) and that whole matchy matchy vibe is very very kpop idols at korean award shows, u kno? like for me as a kpop stan, it’s very normal to see bts wearing outfits like these on a red carpet because it’s the norm for kpop
It hurts my soul, as a fellow Italian, to see Maneskin finally featured in one of your videos with their most 'boring' outfits to date, even though they intentionally wore the smokings as a protest to an homophobic politician... Please react to their other fashion moments, trust me it's worth it!!! Ly
yes please!! They have been really showing up since ever and their style is always a talking point. I appreciate them finally being mentioned in a video of his, but I just really want Luke to react to one of their more "usual" looks :')
I'm the biggest bts stan and I'm definitely tired of their stylists always playing it safe at american award shows when back in Korea their outfits are always amazing. They definitely should dress like they do in their album concept photos. Those are amazing.
@@hayley_g probably because they have eyes and see what they write about them (xenophobic and transphobic comments) and the stylists are trying to make them “look serious”? i don’t particularly like how they style them but i understand the way they are thinking
This comment section is just non kpop fans being worried for Luke about being attacked and ARMY agreeing that BTS needs to step it up at the American awards
Who cares about oversensitive fans their stylist looks tacky painful to watch their jobs, he's stating facts he's explain THAT'S IT, people are not handle the criticism you know, he's gonna reply back 💖💖💖
I would love it if you did a video about Måneskin fashion style. Their evolution of style is so interesting. They started as buskers and wore whatever they could find from thrift stores but even then their style was quite unique. Now they are a global phenomenon with a Gucci contract and they have stated they are trying to get a message out through their styling. They bend gender barriers and taboos with each of their performance and every styling selection has been well thought.
about måneskin: they usually don't dress like this, in fact, when they went to the EMAs last week they were very different! but from what i know there are 2 possible reasons why they're dressed in suits. the first one is maybe an homage to the band that sings their hit "beggin'" originally. the second one is a dig to a conservative italian politician that criticized them for being too naked, so they said that the next time they would dress like him.

@@aspannas Jeg går ud fra at du også er dansk, så jeg skriver lige i dette sprog. Kan du forklare din tankegang ud fra at måneskin betyder Moonlight? Jeg frygter at jeg ikke følger hvordan det giver skal give mening.
@@moomin7777 I'm not Danish I'm Swedish, but I can understand you, not sure if you want me to reply in swedish or not lol. I mean moonshine and moonlight are pretty much the same thing, it's just that moonshine is related to homemade strong, illegal alcohol and people 99% of the time only use that word when they are talking about that, not the actual shine from the moon. So I think it's better to say moonlight because I've seen some Americans thinking they named it after alcohol. And måneskin means månsken in swedish, which then translates to moonlight in english.
@@aspannas Huh... ok then, you're right. Considering that the comment was about the danish language, I assumed you were danish as well, and that's why I switched to danish. I apologize for that. And thank you for not replying in Swedish, cause you may understand me, but I am clueless when people begin to speak swedish. Thank you for the clarification. I definetely see your point, considering that when I googled the word Moonshine the alcohol did show up before the light did. I wasn't aware of the alcoholic beverage before though, so when I was translating it, I just thought to do so, as accurately as I thought I could. I'll change the wording in my little fact box immediately, thank you for letting me know, and teaching me something new.
@@lobaetoile8440 just because i’m an ARMY doesn’t mean i can’t criticize their stylists’ fashion choices and want more out of them. they’re not gonna kiss your feet because u defended them. they looked good, that’s a given, but i do agree with what he said. these r seven boys that have given us amazing fashion choices whether it is personal or by a stylist. they have repeatedly toned it down in america. know ur place as a person who consumes media. fashion is art and art is always up for interpretation and criticism and change. if ur mad then be mad and if u want to appreciate their looks then go ahead, but stay off this channel if u can’t handle someone criticizing them.

@@aaaamxr Playing it safe isn't how things are done on an American red carpet. They wind up looking like the poor cousin that the Hollywood rich kids are being charitable to. Given the fact that (outside of veteran megastars like Beyonce and Drake) they're probably the biggest money makers on any red carpet, why should that happen?
BTS has all the resources to be best dressed every time they step on the red carpet. I think they are above "having to play it safe" now. They should hire a different stylist for US promotions. Their AMAs outfit has a good meaning (it's meant to reflect Korean culture), but that doesn't mean it has to be boring.
Exactly I mean they could’ve gone with something similar to their IDOL performance outfits to really showcase their culture but I definitely think they play it safe here, they already get degraded at every turn😒
BTS always look so amazing in feathers and lace and tight leather so the suits are disappointing when we know we could be getting greatness and opulence. I wonder if they have different stylists for videos and photoshoots and for red carpets
I thought it was just me, i dont know why they made BTS to dress like that i mean they young people, they should play with fabric and colours, we wanna see little feathers there ...sparkles bit drama...anything , they all need colour. 😎
this probably is fully controlled by Louis Vuitton. Famous artist gets paid to wear designer's clothes so i think that's why they didn't go full in on the styling
@@thaobui7805 they might have a deal with LV where they only wear LV by Virgil to US events. That would explain why all of their US red carpets are boring. Just a theory though.
Someone online said "no one deserves to get their a** ate less than bts's stylists" and a truer statement has never been said. I'm so bored and unimpressed by their red carpet moments. They looked better at the events they attended in the fall in NYC than they ever do on the red carpet.. Also people say they turn it up for eastern events but let's not kid ourselves, those outfits aren't great either.
Their red carpet looks are always meh. They had one amazing red carpet and that when they were promoting wings, with the blood sweat and tears concept. Nevertheless, they have a lot of great performance outfits and occasionally good photoshoot outfits.
it's just been going downhill ever since they changed their stylist back in 2018 i think. i remember that i really liked their fits for 2018 bbmas but in 2019 they just started giving bts boring ass suits for every event
As an ARMY I’m also tired and bored with of the stylist, trust me we too want the stylist gone. I swear the stylist has been dressing them in the most boring outfits for years now and I don’t think it’s going to change anytime soon unfortunately.
@@minyoongi-wh5rg just because it pays homage to something makes it better. The tailoring on them was just horrendous, being one of the main ambassadors for LV’s men’s wear they could’ve given them a suit that could have been fit to perfection. Another thing was even though it pays homage to the “hanbok” it is still boring and simple, even the color they have chosen for their suits are simple, it almost looks like it was not a homage to the hanbok but rather just an ill-fitting suit with minor design changes than that of a traditional suit. Edit: i do not blame BTS for this because i know they have a styling team that could’ve given them better clothing for the red carpet.
@@minyoongi-wh5rg 한복에서 영감을 얻은 것이 아니다. Bts 의 코디네이터인 ' lee ha jung' 의 인터뷰를 보면 bts에게 아무런 애정이 없다. 스타일링을 귀찮아하는 것처럼 보인다. 그래서 한국 아미들이 매우 화가 난 상태이다. 어떤 아미는 교체되지 않는 이유에 대해 코디네이터가 방시혁의 연인이냐고 의심하기도 한다.
I’m an army but honestly, I agreed lmao. They still looks good though. Edit: Their stylist need to step up their game. We’ve seen the boys on more amazing outfits than just a simple coat/tux, so like just do it lol
@@minyoongi-wh5rg I know. But like, a pop of color would be nice you know? If just a normal person seeing it it’s still look like a plain grey/black coat. If they want to showcases korean style/inspired, I feel like they still could do it without being too plain. Sorry if this offended anyone. Also I expected to see more brave fashion choices for their Americas red carpet y’know, since it’s their 4th year. (I’m 2nd year fashion major too) Edit: to explain more, I’m not talking about the coat design or the knot (which is how they tied hanbok)
damn you went hard on brittany, also complete disagree about jojo. she's never worn a black dress in her life probably so it needed it's own moment in my opinion and the hair down, the makeup... it was very beautiful. going forward she can add elements of her "kookiness" into fashion maybe. i really loved olivia's dress.
Totally agree on jojo siwa, she’s invisibly trying something new and you can tell she feels beautiful! She doesn’t owe us colour and glitter and bows… she’s growing up and wanted to experiment with a new style 💕
that's all fine and while i agree that she looks pretty, the dress just isn't it. it looks cheap, like i could find this same dress at some prom store in my neighborhood. she can do this mature look but with better dresses.
It's so funny how Kpop groups serves us so many glamorous looks in their music videos and stage performances, but when they come to the US they wear their grandparents' clothes. I don't get it.
I actually wonder this too, like why is it always toned down in the US specifically? Do the stylists think they are gonna offend american's or something if they do anything out of the ordinary LOL-
@@Alex-ok5tp they already face so much discrimination in the west that their stylists always play SO safe and as a fan it’s so frustrating to see that we don’t get to see them properly expressed and go all out like they do normally for performances etc
@@charlottemegan8645 I cannot imagine anyone in PR or marketing would think that flying under the radar at all the important events is a good marketing strategy. 🤨 BTS & Black Pink really disappointed me. They have showed once again to the world the stereotypical Asian behavior of choosing to be meek and subservient to accommodate their surroundings instead of showing individuality. The Asians are naturally the odd one out at these events, now they have people wondering what's so special about them too with their boring wardrobe. SMH.. 😔 It's go big or go home in the US and they can all just pack up and go home. BTS hardly gained any new fans or respect in the west. They get invited to shows only because of how big their fandom is, not because they showed that they are a standout act. I'm more proud of Psy than of BTS
You should do a review of BTS stage outfits (in Korea. They always go so subtle in America ). As well as the ones they wear in their MV's. Now that's worth seeing cuz they have so many iconic looks and also a couple of funny ones. Their red carpet outfits are always so toned down, especially in America. (In Korea they have some way better looks) Gosh their outfits at music bank are so much more planned and accessorised than these red carpet look. And the outfits they wear in their concerts. If BTS dressed themselves instead of their stylists, and were able to chose anything from the collection, they probably would of served much better looks. Their personal styles are so much more interesting than a lot of the styles they are put in in America.
i know Luke probably is less versed in performance wear, but i would love to see him review some kpop stage outfits!! there's a ton of good and horrendous looks to choose from.
Thank you for saying that with BTS. They all have such unique styles and dress great, and it’s been reflected more and more recently. From their daily wear, to concerts and MV’s. But then their damn stylists goes and puts them in this?! I’m mean especially after you see their performance outfits. I can not honestly phantom why they were put in these unless the got paid a crap ton of money. (Well if they got paid a crap ton of money for it, I would wear it to I guess……. Damn now I need a number for the amount they got paid for this if this is the case.)
That's why BIGBANG ( bg) & 2NE1 (gg) & other 2nd gen groups are BEST edgy ( depends onthe concept) looks to me that's 2ne1's muse Jeremy Scott styled them back then.
Even if they're getting paid a ton of money to wear Louis, they can pick the best and coolest Louis outfits. Why wouldn't Louis Vuitton want thier finest offerings to be seen by millions of people. There's no good reason for the stylists to put them in those boring office suits.
@@lobaetoile8440 If that's the case, why didn't they have any bags and accessories? That's what Louis sells the most of. And LV is much more of a cool brand than a business brand when it comes to clothes. People are more likely to buy the vibrant clothes from them. Putting boring suits on the red carpet makes sense for Armani not Louis.
@@lobaetoile8440 you have a point. maybe this is why they are going with these "boring" and "unaccessorized" look for red carpet cuz they are simply comfortable, formal enough and easy to change into/out of for their stage outfits. bts are performers, not models. they live and breathe on stages. nothing comes before their stages and so their stage outfits must be prioritized before a red carpet look that lasts only a few minutes.
@@lobaetoile8440 BTS is already paying an army of people to handle these matters, and they have enough money to hire even more. When you're a megastar everything you do professionally has to be flawless, because you have the resources to make it flawless and everybody knows it.
I’m an Army, and I feel like the stylist for BTS focuses on having them look together and cohesive as a group vs having them look different individually right now. But I agree they could let them have more fun individually for red carpets
I'm not Army, so you're likely to know this more than I -- do they have stereotype personas to fit into? It's okay if not, actually kind of refreshing if not. Think Spice Girls or Backstreet Boys... a sporty one, a suave one etc. Could they be staying plain to avoid being incorrectly labeled by those unfamiliar with their actual personalities?
@@kneau I feel like they for sure have different personal styles and personalities but probably on a Western red carpet they’re probably trying to stay classic and fashionable to avoid all the criticism that red carpet fashion brings. For magazines and different stuff they’re more individual.
@@nicoleweber5695 neat. I did some quick looking & get the impression their version of 'individual' still is something complex. As in, they have actual personalities rather than just one highlighted trait. Which I like; people can be more than one sort of person.
@@kneau yeah they don’t have the Backstreet Boys kind of “types”. There is no “cute” one of “cool” one (I know nothing about Backstreet Boys lol). They are just them
If the stylist was any good at their job, they could make the boys look cohesive and cool at the same time, while still putting a little bit of their individual flair into the looks. They need to fire their stylist.
Totally agree about bts. They're beautiful and sexy and everything but I wish they would go over the top a little, as LV ambassadors I expected more diverse looks. Meanwhile my compatriots Maneskin I loved, they're always over the top so I liked the classic suits for once.
I'm kinda in between regarding the stylists of BTS. On one hand, maybe they're not as familiar with which red carpet they can go ham on so maybe they prefer to err on the conservative side. On the other hand, BTS had always been criticized for the smallest things like wearing make-up so wearing safe outfits might be their way to avoid that. I understand that parts of their outfits are a nod to the hanbok and I really appreciate that. Tailoring could have been better, but maybe there wasn't enough time since they arrived just a few days ago? Their outfits in the Butter performance are amazing ❤️
@@hana-fb1ue they dont decide how they dress for events like this?? they have a stylist for that. they really dont have the time to pick out clothes for all the members that's just not their job
@@hana-fb1ue Hana they literally have a team of stylists, one of them got interviewed recently. She said BTS can provide their own preferences sometimes but her job is the same as any other stylist. No one in the group chooses how they dress for such formal events. Brands send the stylists the clothes and they work accordingly. Stylists decide on a group esthetic and sometimes try to implement the members's tastes if it fits the general theme. The members have input but are not deciding on the final decisions.
@@hana-fb1ue what behind content are you talking abt😭😭 i've never seen a video of bts sitting in a conference room figuring out which lv fw collection they should be wearing at their next award show. they have stylists who pick out their clothes just like any other celebrity bc they just have more important things to do than having to worry abt styling too.
So happy you talked about Maneskin, I've been loving their rise from Eurovision and the looks they've been putting out! I think the other comments covered why they were all wearing suits here but I'd love your take on some of their other looks
As always, you state your reviews based on analisis and taking in consideration the fashion house from which everylook hails from, thats why your channel is growing, you give honest complete reviews, AND👏IM👏HERE👏FOR👏IT!!!
Honestly what are they doing??? Why does BTS always look like they are on their way to prom?? Like, boring… thank you next. Don’t get me wrong I’m an ARMY but these outfits are just not it…
I honestly hope ARMYs make this video go viral, cuz I agree with you. BTS's outfits were so underwhelming, especially since this was their first in person award show after 2 years. For gosh sakes they "walked" the LV fashion show and were able to create interesting pieces there. Yet the stylists decide to give them these? It frustrated me so much.
I think BTS was warned at some point when they began with the usa invasion some years ago. We have seen a lot of videos from western society commenting rude stuff about them wearing make up, talking about them looking a little bit feminine, and their use of bright hair colors. I made my conclussions, i ve been into bts since 2018 and i remember them being a little more free before. I think HYBE decided to go for a more clean and manly image... thats why you see them sometimes wearing these kind of boring grey outfits... Actually during the last two years and a half we haven´t seen any of them coloring their hair nor pink nor purple , when it was really common before... now usually all of them have their hair color black or on a dark tone...
What bums me out in BTS' case is that if you take a look at them in casual settings such as the airport, in behind the scenes videos or just them strolling down the street, all of them have very distinct styles and know how to take advantage of that. They know how to style themselves. You'll always see them turn looks at Korean events or in their album concepts, but none of that translates to their American appearances, which I can understand because of what other people already stated (they've been mocked so much for supposedly being gay, or looking this or that way, and feeling emasculated because of stereotypes related to Asians, and stuff like that) so that they probably wanna play it safe to avoid mean comments and getting taken seriously. But it's a shame, really, because I know for sure that they do know how to turn a look
I'm an ARMY :). I just wanna say THANK YOU for this video because I thought I was the only one who felt this way about their AMA look. So often, I look at RM's suits and wonder, "Was his tailor away on vacation?!" Sadly, most of the outfits BTS wore on their PTD tour were unflattering, boring, and not nice to look at. To add insult to injury, their hair colors just didn't work :(. It made me SO sad. I want BTS to look like BTS wherever they go! 💜
Good for you. Most people are too afraid to treat BTS fairly because of the extreme amount toxic stans in their fandom. I’m an Army and you are a breath of fresh air on social media. The fandom is a dark dark place.
tbh with bts, i think the styling is intentionally “safer” (not that i agree with it), but i suppose if they were dressed in sequins and chains (quite normalised in the kpop scene), they would be afraid if westerners would view them as just an “Asian act” aka a trend that will pass. Dressing them more “serious” and thus dull, more “sophisticated”? look kinda forces people to take them seriously. I understand that it’s safe, but I wish that the stylists were more unapologetically BTS, time will tell on it’s own that bts is more than just a passing trend/ viral act. They’re so unique that it would really be a shame to not showcase it.
Could you maybe do a video/series of how you would style specific artists?? Like for bts how would you style them for different things. Or olivia rodrigo, how would you style her for things. Ya know? People that aren’t quite showing out but for sure could. I’d love to see your take!!
I'm so done with BTS styling team since the Bottega grammy disaster, they keep doing the same boring outfits. Also they're working with LV but the suits jackets look awkward and not fitted, the fabric looks heavy but flimsy at the same time, like are these suits actually tailored? I know they looked like that at the runway and that's the vibe but even there, it looks shein quality Also. Miss cardi saved the night 🖤 imo
Just FYI about Måneskin since I am sure they will be a part of many red carpets in the future. They are an italian rock band who won the Eurovision song contest this year, but their band name is Danish and means moonlight. They have also already been in a Gucci campaign, so expect more Gucci from them in the future. Since the letter Å doesn't exist in English, I would describe the pronounciation as the O in OMG. M-oh-ne (as the ner in nervous) skin. They have some amazing fashion looks (this one a bit meh though) so I can't wait for you to react to them in the future!! Also from the left: Ethan (drummer), Damiano (Frontman), Thomas (guitarist) and Victoria (bassist, and half-Danish, hence the Danish band name)
you're brave lol.. but as an army, i completely agree & i know many others agree too.. Want to know the truly depressing part? most of army agreeing are also very happy it's just boring, because some of the outfits BTS has been put in this year.. it's a sad case controversial: BTS' stylists are probably the most boring/untalented A-list-dressing stylists out there.
My favorite was Halle Bailey, the fit, the color, everything just looked perfect on her!! Also I think BTS's stylists should do something more like what Chloe and Halle do. In the past when they've shown up on the red carpets together, they'll have completely different outfits that show off their individual style, but still look cohesive side by side without actually matching. I thought Liza Koshy's dress was really cool actually, but I didn't like the styling (can we escape from the thigh high boots trend yet??). Also I don't know much about Larray so I don't have an opinion on the comments you made, but I thought the silhouette of his suit with the huge platform boots was actually really stunning.
What I would do for BTS if I was their stylist (i wish) is that if I was given this collection by Louie Vuitton then I would style them like this. Everyone knows that they have an hourglass shape. This is referenced by their belt thing which Im sure was meant to emphasize their waist, but it wasn’t giving. So what I would do is have some of them like Jungkook or Jin (I think Jin would look good in this because he has really broad shoulders) tuck their jackets into their trousers since their trousers go up to the waist area. This will in turn give them a nice hourglass shape which will then be further emphasized by the belt they would tie around their waist. Giving them a sort of cropped jacket look, with emphasis on their waist. But thats just me.
BTS are talented but I came to know them since 2018/19 maybe but all those years not even once I ve seen them dressed well for red carpet. they always seemed dressed in big designer's sample outfits.
2017 was a big transition year, and a new stylist team was hired, so it's been different since then. Wings era was definitely their best style era when it comes to red carpet looks for sure.
Honestly I don't think it's even only the US anymore lol. It has been a while of bts looking on their way to a corporate meeting for every award show 🙃
Love that people are defending Måneskin in the comments! I suppose Luke doesn't know much about them or has never even heard of them or about their sense of style, but I think he should definitely do more research on them and maybe make a video commenting on their fashion because they are very interesting and extravagant and their style deserves more attention and recognition
Imo. BTS has better looks in asian award shows... Like red V in that all red suit and red hair.. I think they are dressed more conservatively at US award shows for some reason
Hi Luke I’m Italian and I just wanted to explain the backstory behind why Maneskin choose such a boring look from Gucci for the AMAs compared to the extravaganza they always wear on the daily. Here in Italy there are a lot of politicians who constantly criticise Damiano and the other boys from the band for wearing feminine clothing. One of those politician, very conservative and against the lgbt community, decided to write a full rant on Instagram about Damiano way of dressing, saying stuff as “next what? Male bras?” so Damiano commented under the post and said “ok next time I will wear suit and papillon” and what you see is the result of that. I think that in a way this fashion choice was the best way to pick fun at Italian politicians and their sexist way of seeing fashion, so it’s actually pretty iconic.
i honestly would love to see the bts guys styled on red carpets like theyre styled during their performances because god they rlly have some amazing and iconic outfits from many stages
Completely agree with bts. Wonder if you saw the yellow set they had at the end of the show while holding their awards? It looks so much better than their red carpet. They wore bespoke Tailorable suits that reflected more of their individual styles.
While I agree with BTS’ styling for this being lackluster, I understand it and it’s pretty sad that they just can’t win. Bright colors, patterns, and glitter and they get called “gay” or “plastic”, simple monochromatic suits and it’s not enough and too westernized. I have to say, it would be amazing if they came in beautiful tailored hanbok like their “IDOL” era. Those are colorful and they stand out but they’re also authentic.
Luke is DONE lmaoo nah i love them but theyve had more interesting looks at the airport😩 you would never guess theyre fashionable boys by seeing what they wear on the (american) red carpet
tbh i was disappointed with bts' outfits too, they are gorgeous and can pull off anything i dont get why their stylists dont take a freaking risk!!! the only thing that saved them for me was yoongi's hair lmao anyway i still think they look amazing cause im in luv w them
Hey! I couldn't agree with you more! You should try rating BTS' fashion during their "The most beautiful moment in life" era. And I'm serious, it was such a thing. Their fashion has become quite boring. Around 2015-2016 they used to be heavily influenced in fashion by another group (BigBang) at that time of their transition in music genre, and it actually made them very popular among other idol groups. I don't understand what happened.
They did a fashion show for LV in Seoul, i think the stylists want to play it safe in the US to be taken seriously. As a fashion lover i'd love for them to wear some of these crazy outfits they have in photoshoots but if they don't care i respect that lol
@@livymandonguilles i didn't say anything about the belts 😭 i didn't know tho but it would have looked good if they wore a traditional x modern outfits like they did for Idol at Jimmy fallon
@@beautifulloly They are not super ill fitted, but they do not look tailored to them, which is what you should always expect from a red carpet and especially when they are being dressed by a brand.
I'm glad you talked about your honest opinion on BTS because so many fashion channels talk about them like there's a gun pointed at them off camera. Which, knowing what I know of the fandom, isn't too far off. Hope the ARMYs don't bother you too much
puhleeeez, i been begging forever for BTS stylists to pull some looks similar to their concept photo looks or on stage looks for the red carpet but they continue to play it safe..... they could literally pull off any look and make it work..... ya'll got the best canvas and ain't doing any work on it like????? do sumn' stylists
the maneskin dressed in this way out of provocation, because an ignorant and mentally closed Italian politician with the surname pillon, had criticized them for dressing in an eccentric and genderless way, damian in response to the politician said that at the next show they would dressed in a bow tie (papillon in Italian, thus creating a pun with the politician's surname) may seem boring than usual, but he was fully aware.
Thank goodness for your information, I was almost disappointed since they always have great outfits
Yeah, not sure this was planned as a protest - as I doubt Gucci provided these suits in less than a week between EMAs and AMAs 🙄 I much prefer the idea this was a tribute to Four Seasons.
In any case, it would be great if Luke could review some of Måneskin's other red carpet / performance looks ❤️
Also Måneskin*
And they themselves joked about looking like security guards ;-)
I'm not sure I understand. How is it provocative if they're basically giving in to societal pressure instead of doing whatever tf they want like usual?
the Maneskin actually normally have a really eclectic kind of style but they all wore smokings to protest to a very homophobic italian senator that made several comments about Damanio wearing too "femenines" stuff... So, yeah, not their most intriguing style but well worthing one

I believe you can also see it as a tribute to the original artist behind the song beggin. Btw Damiano* not Damanio.
@Marija M actually I think they have their fair amount of wardrobe prepare for them, since they’re now representing the Gucci brand, but in that case, they said that next event they would be wearing a paPillon (that senator’s surname is Pillon) to “honor” him (sarcasm warning)
@Skabbråttan sorry, totally right! I didn’t see the bad spelling! Horrible thing is that I’m Italian😅
I think it was more a tribute to Frankie Valli
What we must discuss is the evolution of these titles
I’m here for it
Luke has no fear 😲
Hi man! It's nice to see here!!😁😁
that's what i was about to say lmao, I'm all ready for the discussion
OMG HIIII
i would just like to add that the “tie” things on bts’ suits are actually hanbok knots! hanboks are traditional korean clothing so it was nice to see them representing their culture on the carpet
I read an article talking about all the details in BTS’s looks that we’re inspired by the hanbok! I think it was in VOGUE. Personally, I liked their looks, but generally agree that they are boring on US red carpets. Their street style clothes for the My Universe stage were really good and clearly individualized. Additionally, their Butter performance suits were amazing!
My mom also is an army and told me all about this, how the knots pay tribute to traditional korean hanbok, the belts being folded similarly to a 고름 (goreum I think would be the English pronunciation) but she was proud that they were able to do that and while I also do agree that the styles were quite dull and wish the stylist would showcase them more, I was glad they were able to show that part of the culture on such a big event

BTS can literally be the best dressed only if the stylists would go a little out of box and be more daring.
At the same time i want them to wear some of these crazy outfits they Wear for photoshoots but i also want them to not care
I am a bit confused with their styling on the red carpet, let me explain. Often for photo shoots and their videos I feel they are very liberated and free and experimental. And then red carpet happens and I’m like “ok, what is this”.
I have a theory, I am probably wrong, but I think that they have been shamed for being colorful and therefore gay (not my opinion, nor I think colorful is gay, just saying what I’ve seen over social medias) so they avoid being like that for American market.
Don’t know…
@@nv2605 I agree, I feel like stylists want to downplay the outfits so bts would be taken more seriously. They already get enough smack talk just by being a Asian boy group
Kpop has never been about experimentation on the red carpet, sadly
@@dreamcometrue461 exactly, pretty simple and straightforward explanation
BTS getting styled always feels so weird because they have a really individual style, and really understand how to put an outfit together, yet when they are styled for a red carpet clearly whoever is putting the outfits together is just trying to make them look like a group instead of having this individual flair and still feeling cohesive. I think the stage outfits they wore for either of their performances (or the clothes they changed into after the first one) would have had more of an impact
Agreed
Exactly! Each member has such a distinct style! We play this game on Twitter where we can tell which member it is just from looking at the clothes
They have much better outfits in Korean award shows
@@sophieh.4097 Maybe they did at one point, but the Korean red carpets from the last few years have been pretty dull too.
i think it’s because they’re still using korean stylists (maybe idk for sure) and that whole matchy matchy vibe is very very kpop idols at korean award shows, u kno? like for me as a kpop stan, it’s very normal to see bts wearing outfits like these on a red carpet because it’s the norm for kpop
It hurts my soul, as a fellow Italian, to see Maneskin finally featured in one of your videos with their most 'boring' outfits to date, even though they intentionally wore the smokings as a protest to an homophobic politician... Please react to their other fashion moments, trust me it's worth it!!! Ly

yes please!! They have been really showing up since ever and their style is always a talking point. I appreciate them finally being mentioned in a video of his, but I just really want Luke to react to one of their more "usual" looks :')
I'm the biggest bts stan and I'm definitely tired of their stylists always playing it safe at american award shows when back in Korea their outfits are always amazing. They definitely should dress like they do in their album concept photos. Those are amazing.

I know. I was so excited to see their outfits after so long and they turned up in that... 🙃
how come they play it safe in america?
@@hayley_g probably because they have eyes and see what they write about them (xenophobic and transphobic comments) and the stylists are trying to make them “look serious”? i don’t particularly like how they style them but i understand the way they are thinking

I would love it if you did a video about Måneskin fashion style. Their evolution of style is so interesting. They started as buskers and wore whatever they could find from thrift stores but even then their style was quite unique. Now they are a global phenomenon with a Gucci contract and they have stated they are trying to get a message out through their styling. They bend gender barriers and taboos with each of their performance and every styling selection has been well thought.
That’s a great idea!
Yessss we need a måneskin fashion analysis asap
They aren’t global yet.
G DRAGON KING G DRAGON KING
Yessss plsssss
about måneskin: they usually don't dress like this, in fact, when they went to the EMAs last week they were very different! but from what i know there are 2 possible reasons why they're dressed in suits. the first one is maybe an homage to the band that sings their hit "beggin'" originally. the second one is a dig to a conservative italian politician that criticized them for being too naked, so they said that the next time they would dress like him.
G DRAGON KING

As a bts fan, their red carpet styles are always so boring... their concerts + concept outfits are so good !!!

@@moomin7777 I'm not Danish I'm Swedish, but I can understand you, not sure if you want me to reply in swedish or not lol.
I mean moonshine and moonlight are pretty much the same thing, it's just that moonshine is related to homemade strong, illegal alcohol and people 99% of the time only use that word when they are talking about that, not the actual shine from the moon.
So I think it's better to say moonlight because I've seen some Americans thinking they named it after alcohol. And måneskin means månsken in swedish, which then translates to moonlight in english.
@@aspannas Huh... ok then, you're right. Considering that the comment was about the danish language, I assumed you were danish as well, and that's why I switched to danish. I apologize for that. And thank you for not replying in Swedish, cause you may understand me, but I am clueless when people begin to speak swedish. Thank you for the clarification. I definetely see your point, considering that when I googled the word Moonshine the alcohol did show up before the light did. I wasn't aware of the alcoholic beverage before though, so when I was translating it, I just thought to do so, as accurately as I thought I could. I'll change the wording in my little fact box immediately, thank you for letting me know, and teaching me something new.

@@aaaamxr Playing it safe isn't how things are done on an American red carpet. They wind up looking like the poor cousin that the Hollywood rich kids are being charitable to. Given the fact that (outside of veteran megastars like Beyonce and Drake) they're probably the biggest money makers on any red carpet, why should that happen?
BTS has all the resources to be best dressed every time they step on the red carpet. I think they are above "having to play it safe" now. They should hire a different stylist for US promotions. Their AMAs outfit has a good meaning (it's meant to reflect Korean culture), but that doesn't mean it has to be boring.
Exactly I mean they could’ve gone with something similar to their IDOL performance outfits to really showcase their culture but I definitely think they play it safe here, they already get degraded at every turn😒
BTS always look so amazing in feathers and lace and tight leather so the suits are disappointing when we know we could be getting greatness and opulence. I wonder if they have different stylists for videos and photoshoots and for red carpets
I thought it was just me, i dont know why they made BTS to dress like that i mean they young people, they should play with fabric and colours, we wanna see little feathers there ...sparkles bit drama...anything , they all need colour. 😎
this probably is fully controlled by Louis Vuitton. Famous artist gets paid to wear designer's clothes so i think that's why they didn't go full in on the styling
i think they tone it down or have completely different stylists in america cause they always look 10x better in korea
@@ZymonB i thought the clothes were provided by Louis Vuitton but the stylist choose them?
@@thaobui7805 they might have a deal with LV where they only wear LV by Virgil to US events. That would explain why all of their US red carpets are boring. Just a theory though.
Someone online said "no one deserves to get their a** ate less than bts's stylists" and a truer statement has never been said. I'm so bored and unimpressed by their red carpet moments. They looked better at the events they attended in the fall in NYC than they ever do on the red carpet.. Also people say they turn it up for eastern events but let's not kid ourselves, those outfits aren't great either.
Korean stylists as a whole are wack if we have to be honest
it sucks cuz individually they've all got style but the stylists just,, don't understand the assignment.
Their red carpet looks are always meh. They had one amazing red carpet and that when they were promoting wings, with the blood sweat and tears concept. Nevertheless, they have a lot of great performance outfits and occasionally good photoshoot outfits.
sorry i laughed because i though the a** eating thing was a complement
it's just been going downhill ever since they changed their stylist back in 2018 i think. i remember that i really liked their fits for 2018 bbmas but in 2019 they just started giving bts boring ass suits for every event

damn you went hard on brittany, also complete disagree about jojo. she's never worn a black dress in her life probably so it needed it's own moment in my opinion and the hair down, the makeup... it was very beautiful. going forward she can add elements of her "kookiness" into fashion maybe. i really loved olivia's dress.
Totally agree on jojo siwa, she’s invisibly trying something new and you can tell she feels beautiful! She doesn’t owe us colour and glitter and bows… she’s growing up and wanted to experiment with a new style 💕
that's all fine and while i agree that she looks pretty, the dress just isn't it. it looks cheap, like i could find this same dress at some prom store in my neighborhood. she can do this mature look but with better dresses.

The Asians are naturally the odd one out at these events, now they have people wondering what's so special about them too with their boring wardrobe. SMH.. 😔
It's go big or go home in the US and they can all just pack up and go home. BTS hardly gained any new fans or respect in the west.
They get invited to shows only because of how big their fandom is, not because they showed that they are a standout act.
I'm more proud of Psy than of BTS
You should do a review of BTS stage outfits (in Korea. They always go so subtle in America ). As well as the ones they wear in their MV's. Now that's worth seeing cuz they have so many iconic looks and also a couple of funny ones.
Their red carpet outfits are always so toned down, especially in America. (In Korea they have some way better looks)
Gosh their outfits at music bank are so much more planned and accessorised than these red carpet look. And the outfits they wear in their concerts.
If BTS dressed themselves instead of their stylists, and were able to chose anything from the collection, they probably would of served much better looks. Their personal styles are so much more interesting than a lot of the styles they are put in in America.
i know Luke probably is less versed in performance wear, but i would love to see him review some kpop stage outfits!! there's a ton of good and horrendous looks to choose from.
@@kaemincha Yes. So many iconic outfits and so many much more interesting ones in performance wear.
I think they want to be taken more seriously in the states but the stylist needs to realize we love extra 🤣.
@@kristykim9972 yeah we do
They picked thier own outfits for the Louis Vuitton photo shoot, and it was a million times better than this.
Thank you for saying that with BTS. They all have such unique styles and dress great, and it’s been reflected more and more recently. From their daily wear, to concerts and MV’s. But then their damn stylists goes and puts them in this?!
I’m mean especially after you see their performance outfits. I can not honestly phantom why they were put in these unless the got paid a crap ton of money. (Well if they got paid a crap ton of money for it, I would wear it to I guess……. Damn now I need a number for the amount they got paid for this if this is the case.)
That's why BIGBANG ( bg) & 2NE1 (gg) & other 2nd gen groups are BEST edgy ( depends onthe concept) looks to me that's 2ne1's muse Jeremy Scott styled them back then.
Even if they're getting paid a ton of money to wear Louis, they can pick the best and coolest Louis outfits. Why wouldn't Louis Vuitton want thier finest offerings to be seen by millions of people. There's no good reason for the stylists to put them in those boring office suits.
@@lobaetoile8440 If that's the case, why didn't they have any bags and accessories? That's what Louis sells the most of. And LV is much more of a cool brand than a business brand when it comes to clothes. People are more likely to buy the vibrant clothes from them. Putting boring suits on the red carpet makes sense for Armani not Louis.
@@lobaetoile8440 you have a point. maybe this is why they are going with these "boring" and "unaccessorized" look for red carpet cuz they are simply comfortable, formal enough and easy to change into/out of for their stage outfits. bts are performers, not models. they live and breathe on stages. nothing comes before their stages and so their stage outfits must be prioritized before a red carpet look that lasts only a few minutes.
@@lobaetoile8440 BTS is already paying an army of people to handle these matters, and they have enough money to hire even more. When you're a megastar everything you do professionally has to be flawless, because you have the resources to make it flawless and everybody knows it.
The only time I gasped at the fashion was when Luke came on screen. Fabulous.
I’m an Army, and I feel like the stylist for BTS focuses on having them look together and cohesive as a group vs having them look different individually right now. But I agree they could let them have more fun individually for red carpets
I'm not Army, so you're likely to know this more than I -- do they have stereotype personas to fit into? It's okay if not, actually kind of refreshing if not. Think Spice Girls or Backstreet Boys... a sporty one, a suave one etc. Could they be staying plain to avoid being incorrectly labeled by those unfamiliar with their actual personalities?
@@kneau I feel like they for sure have different personal styles and personalities but probably on a Western red carpet they’re probably trying to stay classic and fashionable to avoid all the criticism that red carpet fashion brings. For magazines and different stuff they’re more individual.
@@nicoleweber5695 neat. I did some quick looking & get the impression their version of 'individual' still is something complex. As in, they have actual personalities rather than just one highlighted trait. Which I like; people can be more than one sort of person.
@@kneau yeah they don’t have the Backstreet Boys kind of “types”. There is no “cute” one of “cool” one (I know nothing about Backstreet Boys lol). They are just them
If the stylist was any good at their job, they could make the boys look cohesive and cool at the same time, while still putting a little bit of their individual flair into the looks. They need to fire their stylist.
Totally agree about bts. They're beautiful and sexy and everything but I wish they would go over the top a little, as LV ambassadors I expected more diverse looks. Meanwhile my compatriots Maneskin I loved, they're always over the top so I liked the classic suits for once.
Yeah for Måneskin that classsic look is so rare that the suits stood out in contrast
You NEED to do a BTS airport style video. Each member’s style is very different.
Agreed! Their personal styles are way more interesting!
yes sure but I think that Kpop idols are wearing more basic clothes than they would in asia to fit in as they are discriminated already idk
I'm kinda in between regarding the stylists of BTS. On one hand, maybe they're not as familiar with which red carpet they can go ham on so maybe they prefer to err on the conservative side. On the other hand, BTS had always been criticized for the smallest things like wearing make-up so wearing safe outfits might be their way to avoid that. I understand that parts of their outfits are a nod to the hanbok and I really appreciate that. Tailoring could have been better, but maybe there wasn't enough time since they arrived just a few days ago? Their outfits in the Butter performance are amazing ❤️
Right
I don’t get why BTS looks boring every time it sucks they’re so cute they deserve better stylists and tailors

No one in the group chooses how they dress for such formal events. Brands send the stylists the clothes and they work accordingly. Stylists decide on a group esthetic and sometimes try to implement the members's tastes if it fits the general theme. The members have input but are not deciding on the final decisions.
@@hana-fb1ue what behind content are you talking abt😭😭 i've never seen a video of bts sitting in a conference room figuring out which lv fw collection they should be wearing at their next award show. they have stylists who pick out their clothes just like any other celebrity bc they just have more important things to do than having to worry abt styling too.

So happy you talked about Maneskin, I've been loving their rise from Eurovision and the looks they've been putting out! I think the other comments covered why they were all wearing suits here but I'd love your take on some of their other looks

Honestly what are they doing??? Why does BTS always look like they are on their way to prom?? Like, boring… thank you next. Don’t get me wrong I’m an ARMY but these outfits are just not it…
OMG sorry 🤣🤣🤣
I honestly hope ARMYs make this video go viral, cuz I agree with you. BTS's outfits were so underwhelming, especially since this was their first in person award show after 2 years. For gosh sakes they "walked" the LV fashion show and were able to create interesting pieces there. Yet the stylists decide to give them these? It frustrated me so much.
I'm an army and I agree. Thank you for not critiquing their outfits and not bashing their characters or etc.
I think BTS was warned at some point when they began with the usa invasion some years ago. We have seen a lot of videos from western society commenting rude stuff about them wearing make up, talking about them looking a little bit feminine, and their use of bright hair colors. I made my conclussions, i ve been into bts since 2018 and i remember them being a little more free before. I think HYBE decided to go for a more clean and manly image... thats why you see them sometimes wearing these kind of boring grey outfits... Actually during the last two years and a half we haven´t seen any of them coloring their hair nor pink nor purple , when it was really common before... now usually all of them have their hair color black or on a dark tone...
What bums me out in BTS' case is that if you take a look at them in casual settings such as the airport, in behind the scenes videos or just them strolling down the street, all of them have very distinct styles and know how to take advantage of that. They know how to style themselves.
You'll always see them turn looks at Korean events or in their album concepts, but none of that translates to their American appearances, which I can understand because of what other people already stated (they've been mocked so much for supposedly being gay, or looking this or that way, and feeling emasculated because of stereotypes related to Asians, and stuff like that) so that they probably wanna play it safe to avoid mean comments and getting taken seriously.
But it's a shame, really, because I know for sure that they do know how to turn a look
I'm an ARMY :). I just wanna say THANK YOU for this video because I thought I was the only one who felt this way about their AMA look. So often, I look at RM's suits and wonder, "Was his tailor away on vacation?!" Sadly, most of the outfits BTS wore on their PTD tour were unflattering, boring, and not nice to look at. To add insult to injury, their hair colors just didn't work :(. It made me SO sad. I want BTS to look like BTS wherever they go! 💜
Honestly it breaks my heart to see them in such boring clothes cause like if u look back on their looks they have had such fun fashion moments
2000- 2014 in South Korea are booming back then not nowadays JESUS
I like how you can’t tell if OP is referring to BTS or maneskin
You are a brave person, and we love you for that.
BTS stage outfits looked like butter in different stages of melt…their red carpet clothes would have been better, and that’s not saying much:/
Good for you. Most people are too afraid to treat BTS fairly because of the extreme amount toxic stans in their fandom. I’m an Army and you are a breath of fresh air on social media. The fandom is a dark dark place.
The title has me expecting that this isn’t going to any ordinary everyday roast, it’s going be the thanksgiving roast for a serving of 12
BTS shouldve worn the green Louis Vuitton Fall collection.
tbh with bts, i think the styling is intentionally “safer” (not that i agree with it), but i suppose if they were dressed in sequins and chains (quite normalised in the kpop scene), they would be afraid if westerners would view them as just an “Asian act” aka a trend that will pass. Dressing them more “serious” and thus dull, more “sophisticated”? look kinda forces people to take them seriously. I understand that it’s safe, but I wish that the stylists were more unapologetically BTS, time will tell on it’s own that bts is more than just a passing trend/ viral act. They’re so unique that it would really be a shame to not showcase it.
"smooth like butter ? this is not."
i snorted
Could you maybe do a video/series of how you would style specific artists?? Like for bts how would you style them for different things. Or olivia rodrigo, how would you style her for things. Ya know? People that aren’t quite showing out but for sure could. I’d love to see your take!!
Could you do a review of the EMAs? Måneskin’s range in outfits will surprise you lmao
I was waiting for thisss!!!
I'm so done with BTS styling team since the Bottega grammy disaster, they keep doing the same boring outfits. Also they're working with LV but the suits jackets look awkward and not fitted, the fabric looks heavy but flimsy at the same time, like are these suits actually tailored? I know they looked like that at the runway and that's the vibe but even there, it looks shein quality
Also. Miss cardi saved the night 🖤 imo
Just FYI about Måneskin since I am sure they will be a part of many red carpets in the future. They are an italian rock band who won the Eurovision song contest this year, but their band name is Danish and means moonlight. They have also already been in a Gucci campaign, so expect more Gucci from them in the future.
Since the letter Å doesn't exist in English, I would describe the pronounciation as the O in OMG. M-oh-ne (as the ner in nervous) skin. They have some amazing fashion looks (this one a bit meh though) so I can't wait for you to react to them in the future!!
Also from the left: Ethan (drummer), Damiano (Frontman), Thomas (guitarist) and Victoria (bassist, and half-Danish, hence the Danish band name)
Yes, more Måneskinn !!! Love them
you're brave lol.. but as an army, i completely agree & i know many others agree too..
Want to know the truly depressing part? most of army agreeing are also very happy it's just boring, because some of the outfits BTS has been put in this year.. it's a sad case
controversial: BTS' stylists are probably the most boring/untalented A-list-dressing stylists out there.
100% agreed from fellow army. Their outfits were heartbreaking and dissapointing.
My favorite was Halle Bailey, the fit, the color, everything just looked perfect on her!! Also I think BTS's stylists should do something more like what Chloe and Halle do. In the past when they've shown up on the red carpets together, they'll have completely different outfits that show off their individual style, but still look cohesive side by side without actually matching.
I thought Liza Koshy's dress was really cool actually, but I didn't like the styling (can we escape from the thigh high boots trend yet??). Also I don't know much about Larray so I don't have an opinion on the comments you made, but I thought the silhouette of his suit with the huge platform boots was actually really stunning.
What I would do for BTS if I was their stylist (i wish) is that if I was given this collection by Louie Vuitton then I would style them like this. Everyone knows that they have an hourglass shape. This is referenced by their belt thing which Im sure was meant to emphasize their waist, but it wasn’t giving. So what I would do is have some of them like Jungkook or Jin (I think Jin would look good in this because he has really broad shoulders) tuck their jackets into their trousers since their trousers go up to the waist area. This will in turn give them a nice hourglass shape which will then be further emphasized by the belt they would tie around their waist. Giving them a sort of cropped jacket look, with emphasis on their waist.
But thats just me.
BTS are talented but I came to know them since 2018/19 maybe but all those years not even once I ve seen them dressed well for red carpet. they always seemed dressed in big designer's sample outfits.
For korean red carpet they're dressed to the nines
2017 was a big transition year, and a new stylist team was hired, so it's been different since then. Wings era was definitely their best style era when it comes to red carpet looks for sure.
Honestly I don't think it's even only the US anymore lol. It has been a while of bts looking on their way to a corporate meeting for every award show 🙃
Love that people are defending Måneskin in the comments!
I suppose Luke doesn't know much about them or has never even heard of them or about their sense of style, but I think he should definitely do more research on them and maybe make a video commenting on their fashion because they are very interesting and extravagant and their style deserves more attention and recognition
Whatever happened to the Met Gala Roast Part 2? 🤔🤔
Hearing Luke say ‘Kookie Crazy’ brightens my day. 😍
Also, Luke looks fabulous in this video!
i’m obsessed w how many times luke described things as “looking sweet” in this video
Imo. BTS has better looks in asian award shows... Like red V in that all red suit and red hair.. I think they are dressed more conservatively at US award shows for some reason
luke i must know where this turtleneck is from im obsessed
serving tiger queen luke thank you x
The. Best. Look. Worn.
Ever, LOVE this sweater Luke. Well done
Omg you have to take a look at BTS’ outfits for the song Black Swan in the PTD concert… They’re absolutely gorgeous
Hi Luke I’m Italian and I just wanted to explain the backstory behind why Maneskin choose such a boring look from Gucci for the AMAs compared to the extravaganza they always wear on the daily. Here in Italy there are a lot of politicians who constantly criticise Damiano and the other boys from the band for wearing feminine clothing. One of those politician, very conservative and against the lgbt community, decided to write a full rant on Instagram about Damiano way of dressing, saying stuff as “next what? Male bras?” so Damiano commented under the post and said “ok next time I will wear suit and papillon” and what you see is the result of that. I think that in a way this fashion choice was the best way to pick fun at Italian politicians and their sexist way of seeing fashion, so it’s actually pretty iconic.
i honestly would love to see the bts guys styled on red carpets like theyre styled during their performances because god they rlly have some amazing and iconic outfits from many stages
Zegna is actually Italian🇮🇹 love ur videos Luke! Love from Spain
Thanks from Italy!!
K-pop industry is known for it's fashion meanwhile BTS is always dressed as if they are going to meet your partner's parents.
When BTS' (house/casual) outfits at In The Soop were more interesting than AMAs red carpet.
BTS stylists, plsss bring back the Blood Sweat and Tears suits, PLEASE.
I mean BTS as individuals have such a cool and unique style when they chose themselves their fits, their stylists just REALLY love costumes.
Completely agree with bts. Wonder if you saw the yellow set they had at the end of the show while holding their awards? It looks so much better than their red carpet. They wore bespoke Tailorable suits that reflected more of their individual styles.
While I agree with BTS’ styling for this being lackluster, I understand it and it’s pretty sad that they just can’t win. Bright colors, patterns, and glitter and they get called “gay” or “plastic”, simple monochromatic suits and it’s not enough and too westernized. I have to say, it would be amazing if they came in beautiful tailored hanbok like their “IDOL” era. Those are colorful and they stand out but they’re also authentic.
im an army and i have to be honest i HATE the stylist that gave them all these basic looks…like ever since 2020 their looks have been going down 💀🥲
Luke is DONE lmaoo nah i love them but theyve had more interesting looks at the airport😩 you would never guess theyre fashionable boys by seeing what they wear on the (american) red carpet
tbh i was disappointed with bts' outfits too, they are gorgeous and can pull off anything i dont get why their stylists dont take a freaking risk!!! the only thing that saved them for me was yoongi's hair lmao anyway i still think they look amazing cause im in luv w them
oh bestie the title- 😭
I mean I get u but it hurt my little BTS fan heart 😔😂
RIP TO VIRGIL ( LV) , HE PASSED AWAY FEW DAYS AGO AT THE AGE OF 41
Whatever BTS wear they can carry it amazingly, so wether it’s not your taste or you like ,, it’s not important..
Bts had phenomenal outfits during the concert my hopes were really high. Even tho I don’t like the styling team now, I think they still pulled it off
Hey! I couldn't agree with you more!
You should try rating BTS' fashion during their "The most beautiful moment in life" era. And I'm serious, it was such a thing.
Their fashion has become quite boring.
Around 2015-2016 they used to be heavily influenced in fashion by another group (BigBang) at that time of their transition in music genre, and it actually made them very popular among other idol groups.
I don't understand what happened.
They did a fashion show for LV in Seoul, i think the stylists want to play it safe in the US to be taken seriously. As a fashion lover i'd love for them to wear some of these crazy outfits they have in photoshoots but if they don't care i respect that lol
Sis the suits are inspired by Korean traditional clothing. The knots of their belts are done the same way a hanbok would
@@livymandonguilles Doesn't change the fact that the suits are ill fitted and boring.
@@livymandonguilles i didn't say anything about the belts 😭 i didn't know tho but it would have looked good if they wore a traditional x modern outfits like they did for Idol at Jimmy fallon
@@aspannas i honestly don't think they're that illfitted
@@beautifulloly They are not super ill fitted, but they do not look tailored to them, which is what you should always expect from a red carpet and especially when they are being dressed by a brand.
I'm glad you talked about your honest opinion on BTS because so many fashion channels talk about them like there's a gun pointed at them off camera. Which, knowing what I know of the fandom, isn't too far off. Hope the ARMYs don't bother you too much
Always looked forward for your reaction, I'm an army and I agree
Honey I’m glad you said it but that title is going to make the army drag you to hell with them 😭😭😭 Ily tho, was nice knowing you
Oh no, we agree with him, we know they can do and have done better
Liza Koshy is my favorite look. I love how she wore a babydoll dress in an modern way.
i think that olivia's dress would look a lot better if it was a bit longer so it would reach the ground
love bts proud of their achievements in the AMAs but exactly thank you for spitting facts luke. those pants and shoes 😩😩😩 someone save them pls
I actually liked the outfits BTS wore for the My Universe performance. It reminded me of Mic Drop era BTS.
puhleeeez, i been begging forever for BTS stylists to pull some looks similar to their concept photo looks or on stage looks for the red carpet but they continue to play it safe..... they could literally pull off any look and make it work..... ya'll got the best canvas and ain't doing any work on it like????? do sumn' stylists
No matter how BTS Dresses they all always look amazing 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
