Have you noticed with the rise of Korean skincare products or even K-pop music (we see you, BTS)? You aren't the only one. South Korea has become a leader in cultural movements and viral beauty fads, and we have a feeling it’s no different for Korean fashion trends.

If there’s anything you should know about what the fashion girls in Seoul are currently wearing, it’s that nearly everything in fashion is inspired by streetwear on one level or another. Of course, there are always a few other, more niche, trends to keep an eye on in the country, so we took a look through the coolest street style shots from Seoul Fashion Week to identify what’s dominating in Korea.
