BLACKPINK's Lisa And (G)I-DLE's Minnie Both Rocked The "Visible Thong" Trend, But Slayed In Completely Different Ways

Recently, K-Pop idols have been wearing or imitating the “visible thong straps” trend that was more prevalent in Western fashion in the late 1990s to early 2000s.

The sexy look has been done by many idols, including BLACKPINK‘s Lisa and (G)I-DLE‘s Minnie!

(G)I-DLE have often gone against the mainstream and proven they are a group that is not afraid to speak their minds, like when Yuqi stated that “girls dress for themselves.”

remember that song yuqi commented that “we girls dress for ourselves” and any note about clothes being too skimpy “is a prejudice”

rather than calling the girls/stylists out when there was no wardrobe malfunction, check yourselves and fight back against those who are the problem pic.twitter.com/sWYj4LMtnn

Minnie certainly did this when she participated in the trend in the spiciest way possible, wearing the lowest cut of pants.

Lisa recently joined the trend while on BLACKPINK’s Born Pink world tour. The rapper has gained attention for her stunning stage outfits before this, so it’s no surprise she’d experiment with her look in this manner.

Lisa debuted her visible thong look at BLACKPINK’s recent show in Taiwan, where she debuted a racer-like look. Her skirt features a v-shaped front, where two “thong straps” can be seen.

Netizens discovered the “straps” are actually part of the Namilia Speed Racer Longsleeve Bodysuit, with the skirt cleverly layered to give the thong-like appearance.
