The beautiful women's wool vest is not only a revived "classic" item, but also a sophisticated choice for Gen Z girls who are pursuing a feminine, modern but not too ostentatious style. Learning from Kim Jiwon's way of mixing and matching clothes - the actress is famous for her gentle, minimalist dressing style - the wool vest becomes a poetic highlight for everyday outfits.

When Wool Vests Return to Korean Fashion

Wool vests (also known as wool vests) used to be a familiar item in school uniforms or classic vintage style. However, in the past 2-3 years, wool vests have been "reborn" in a new light by the Korean fashion world: more modern, easier to coordinate and especially suitable for the elegant aesthetic that Gen Z pursues.

Kim Jiwon – one of the leading fashion inspirations among Korean youth – is no exception to this trend. Every time she appears in a vest, she receives many compliments from Korean netizens for its gentleness, elegance, and "real life" look.

Suggestions for Mixing and Matching Woolen Vests Like Kim Jiwon

1. Vest + Collared Shirt + Straight Pants

The “school office” style is very popular in Korea. You can wear it to school or work. Round neck or V-neck vests combined with collared shirts make the overall look more elegant.

2. Vest + Midi Skirt + Mary Jane Shoes

A little bit of retro mixed with classic femininity. This is the style that Kim Jiwon often wears in youth dramas – both familiar and emotional.

3. Vest + Croptop + Blazer

A more unconventional version, for days when you want to add a personal touch. The crop top inside helps to reduce the “seriousness” of the vest, while the blazer outside creates a stylish, cool layer.

Why Is Gen Z "Crazy" About Wool Vests?

Wool vests are not only suitable for many situations but also easy to transform. You can layer them in winter, wear them thin and light in autumn or mix them minimalistically in spring. The unisex and gentle vibe also help wool vests not be bound by gender or body shape. Moreover, combining vests with secondhand, recycled or sustainable local brands is also a friendly fashion trend that is strongly supported by Gen Z.
