Aespa’s Stylist Comes Under Fire For Giselle’s “Spicy” Showcase Outfit
Aespa held their showcase for their latest comeback, “Spicy,” on May 8, 2023.
In the music video for “Spicy,” along with the concept photos and teasers, fans loved aespa’s styling, which highlighted their incredible visuals and charms.
But even though fans were in love with aespa’s styling during the music video…

Aespa’s stylists have come under fire for Giselle‘s underwhelming outfit for the group’s showcase.
For their showcase, aespa posed in pink and white outfits that gave the group a cohesive look.
But fans are pointing out that Giselle’s outfit seems significantly lacking compared to the others.
Although fans don’t think the outfit is inherently bad, fans are upset because of how simple the outfit is, especially for a showcase. Some believe the look makes it seem like Giselle is going to the beach or participating in Mnet‘s Produce 48 rather than performing at a comeback showcase.

Fans were furious at the “lack of care” that seemed to go into Giselle’s “simple” styling.

We are fans of your artist, Giselle of aespa. We’ve seen mistreatment of Giselle many times. We’ve have grown increasingly more frustrated seeing the repeated lack of care you have for your artist.#GiselleDeserveBetter pic.twitter.com/fVVO4rARz6

And many are criticizing how even Giselle’s hair is just styled the way it typically is.

Giselle fit is so simple. It is save with her pretty face. SM stylist is such a hater. https://t.co/bwQBIZeWD4

Fans are pointing out that in other instances, “when the stylist takes time styling her,” Giselle literally “glows.”
Look how Giselle glows when the stylist takes time styling her. She's gorgeous pic.twitter.com/fWwHmzPL2Q

And some fans were also frustrated with Karina, Winter, and NingNing‘s styling as well, as they believed the looks were nothing new or exciting. Arguing that the outfits don’t flatter the idols’ visuals as well as they could.
Everything is the same except for Karina’s hair color. I’m tired of their image. Both the unattractive dresses and the hair styles that never change (especially Giselle). Isn’t their stylist working? Or SM doesn’t have a budget anymore because it’s all down with Naevis?

Fans are hopeful that aespa’s upcoming stages will have significantly better styling, especially for Giselle.
