From skinny jeans to side parts, some trends leave us divided. Now, BLACKPINK’s Rosé just made a convincing case for the newest polarising trend in fashion: sheer mesh flats.
On Instagram, Rosé shared a photo dump captioned “May” with a sun emoji. In a few of the pics, the K-Pop idol is seen wearing a tried-and-true graphic tee (she opted for Nelly Furtado merch) and jeans outfit, which you can never go wrong with. Rosé paired her oversized cropped t-shirt with black high-waisted flare jeans.
As a dutiful brand ambassador, she completed the look with a black Saint Laurent tote bag. Keeping the vibes casual and cool, she tied her signature blonde hair in a loose side braid and opted for a no-makeup look. The focal point of her look, however, was a pair of beige sheer mesh flats adorned with glittering silver gems all over — a trendy 2024 update on a classic look.
While mesh flats have been around for quite some time and became particularly popular back in the 2000s, it seems they’re on a revival tour. On TikTok, users are calling them the hottest accessories of the summer. While some have gladly embraced the trend, like Rosé in her Khaite Marcy flats, others are likening mesh flats to grandma slippers. To each their own!
Of course, this isn’t the first time Rosé has given a bold trend her stamp of approval. Earlier this year, she rocked trendy bayonetta glasses, giving us totally chic office siren vibes. Back in 2022, she also experimented with the viral anti-mascara technique for her stage makeup while on tour.
Whether you love them or could be warmed up to them, Rosé’s latest look is a prime example of how to style ballet mesh flats this spring and summer. Her BLACKPINK groupmate Lisa also gave us a lesson in wearing woven flats, too. So, if you’re in need of outfit inspo, look no further! See Rosé full photo dump below:
