When Lisa Manoban first burst onto the scene in 2016 as the youngest member of BLACKPINK, her look was quintessentially K-pop: high-octane, experimental, and overly styled. Onstage, she’d wear thigh-high patent boots paired with leather skirts and shimmering crop tops — fashion that was emblematic of a performer just beginning her journey: exciting, youthful, and built around spectacle. Bright colours, bold prints, and clashing textures were her calling card, while vinyl minis and sequin-saturated jackets acted as a shiny foil to the band’s young fans, amping up BLACKPINK’s pop princess credentials.
