"Chic Black vs. Elegant White: Contrasting Coat Styles"

The crowning touch of winter fashion is undoubtedly the coat. Recently, celebrity fashionistas Cha Jung-won and Han Ji-hye have captured the public's attention with their distinct coat looks. Cha Jung-won showcased the essence of minimalism without any frills, while Han Ji-hye exuded elegance with an all-white look from head to toe. Let's learn some outerwear styling tips for this winter from their style points.

1. Cha Jung-won: The 'Effortlessly Chic' Daily Look with a Black Long Coat

Actress Cha Jung-won, known as the goddess of casual wear, once again showcased her signature 'effortlessly styled' vibe.

*Styling Point: She chose a black long coat of maxi length as the main item. To lighten the potentially heavy look of the black coat, she layered a deep V-neck black knit and a light white T-shirt inside, which was a masterstroke.

*Mix & Match: She paired wide-fit light blue jeans for a casual vibe. A simple black belt defined her waistline, creating the effect of longer legs, while a brown suede shoulder bag added a warm accent color to the look.

*Editor’s Tip: “If the weight of a long coat feels overwhelming, try using light denim or inner layering like Cha Jung-won. You can achieve both chicness and functionality at the same time.”

2. Han Ji-hye: Ultimate Elegance and Luxury Mood with All-White

Actress Han Ji-hye perfectly embodied the winter's most daring yet charming 'All-White' styling, reaching the pinnacle of elegance.

*Styling Point: She wore an ivory double-breasted coat with a soft texture. The inner was also matched with a white blouse featuring frill details at the neckline and wide slacks in the same tone for a cohesive look.

*Accessory: To add a striking point to the potentially plain all-white look, she paired it with a vivid yellow tote bag. She also chose white ankle boots to maintain a seamless flow, enhancing the overall silhouette to appear longer and slimmer.

*Editor’s Tip: “If an all-white look feels daunting, try mixing different textures. Like Han Ji-hye, combining a sleek blouse with a cozy wool coat creates a three-dimensional look, even in the same color.”
