Since the release of their debut single album 2 Cool 4 Skool in 2013, BTS has skyrocketed to superstardom and amassed a mega fanbase dubbed the BTS ARMY. The South Korean septet consisting of members Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V and Jung Kook have not only dominated the Korean music industry. They have also conquered the global music scene by racking up substantial fanbases across the world, including the US, Philippines, Brazil and Mexico.
In 2018, BTS became the first Korean act to top the US Billboard 200 with their Love Yourself: Tear album. To date, the group has also won 33 Mnet Asian Music Awards, nine Billboard Music Awards and six American Music Awards.
The global domination doesn’t end there, either. With award ceremonies come red carpet appearances, and the band has captured the attention of the fashion set for their sleek sense of style. While the group has a penchant for classic tailoring, streetwear and matching ensembles, they do not shy away from a bold fashion moment on the red carpet.
In May of this year, BTS levelled up their sartorial game even further by becoming the latest house ambassadors of Louis Vuitton while the brand’s menswear division was under the helm of the late Virgil Abloh. Together, the two powerhouses ushered in a new chapter for the maison. In July, the Bangtan boys made a mark with their very first runway appearance at Louis Vuitton’s menswear autumn/winter 2021 show in Seoul.
As an ode to the launch of Vogue Singapore’s January/February ‘Grace’ issue as well as BTS’s unparalled sense of style, scroll on for a curation of the band’s best red carpet looks over recent years.
