BTS Offers Seven Takes on Modern Suiting at the Grammys
It’s a big night for BTS at tonight’s 63rd annual Grammys. Not only is the K-pop group performing at this evening’s music awards, but they are also nominated in the best pop duo/group performance category for their single, “Dynamite.” Ahead of the big show, the group’s seven members—Jungkook, J-Hope, V, RM, Jin, Suga, and Jimin—kicked off the event by hitting the red carpet in sleek, modern suiting looks by Louis Vuitton. Look closer at the details, and you’ll see that these are not your average two-piece suits.
Under the helm of Virgil Abloh, Louis Vuitton’s menswear has been all about fusing sportswear and tailoring, and BTS’s cohesive looks channelled this exact energy. Just take RM’s all-camel look, consisting of a hoodie with blazer-style pockets, or J-Hope’s black sweater with a giant flower lapel pinned onto it. These special design elements give the suits a more relaxed, casual feel. Other members like V and Jimin stuck to classic iterations, but even their oversized fits—as well as the addition of bold jewelry, like silver hoop earrings—made it feel cool and current.
BTS’s refined Grammys fashion looks tonight also ties into the group’s new style in general. Whereas they used to wear flashy Gucci fits on the red carpet, they are now all about stealthy-chic outfits that are more pared-back, having worn recent suiting by Bottega Veneta and Saint Laurent. This appearance only continues their winning style streak.
