After back-to-back hit albums and having just completed its first world tour in September, K-pop girl group Aespa is making a comeback on November 10 with its fourth mini-album, Drama.

Deviating from Aespa’s distinct funky and bass-driven futuristic soundscapes, Drama showcased a darker tone.

The group, composed of Karina, Winter, Giselle and Ning Ning, has not only achieved remarkable success in the music industry, but has also solidified its presence in the fashion world.

The foursome are brand ambassadors for luxury labels such as Chopard and Givenchy. Additionally, during this year’s fashion weeks, they were spotted at the coveted front-row seats at shows like Givenchy and Thom Browne.

To showcase the ladies’ impeccable style, here is a compilation of Aespa’s best looks of 2023.
