Yet his jackets do not need to only be classic blue. As Instagram posts of Taeyong show, he has caught the eye while wearing denim jackets in various designs and colours.
3. Man in black
Taeyong also favours classic, vintage-looking all-black clothing on his travels.
He never fails to impress when he turns up at the airport dressed simply and stylishly in black from head to toe in a denim or leather jacket paired with a beanie or cap.
4. Streetwear ‘fashionista’
Looking cool on a plane is important, too.
Taeyong knows how to do this by wearing branded clothes, including those with bold logos on hats, jackets, T-shirts and belts, or more subtle links to fashion labels, such as a Burberry coat with its iconic tartan lining, or a scarf or other accessories.
One Taeyong fan, who compiled a “style page” of the K-pop star’s various outfits, wrote: “In 2018 Taeyong’s airport fashion, we see the rise of high-end streetwear and ‘hypebeast’ style. Taeyong has been seen wearing Balenciaga, Off-White, Gucci, Vetements, NBA, Yeezy, and Supreme. Trends include bucket hats, cross-chest packs, cargo [trousers] in socks and chains.”
5. Hip to be square
Staying warm on a cool, air-conditioned aircraft is important, so Taeyong often comes well prepared, dressed in a warm chequered shirt.
Taeyong proves that it’s hip to be square when pairing muted chequered shirts with black accessories such as rucksacks.
