Fangirling mode: ON.

Ok. I'm not really gonna fangirling.. Nope. But yes I'm gonna talk about Big Bang. Not for their music, but for their fashion sense. I'm not a fashion expert so probably I'm just talking nonsense here lol, it's only my opinion anyway.

Although I love Big Bang for their music in the first place, I cannot deny that I also love their looks. They're unique, in a sense that they're not just handsome, but there's definitely something about them that set them apart from the regular Korean boy-bands type. They have the faces, and they have the outfits.

Let's just say that they're not only great in producing music, but they also have such a great fashion sense. They can mix and match everything flawlessly. They can pull of some hilarious outfits which are surely cannot be done by any other people. So, guys, don't ever try to match them, okay? Just, don't. I mean, how can any other guys walking around with this jacket flawlessly like this man?

I don't care if it's Commes des Garcons or Chanel or Versace or whatever, if it looks weird, just don't try to wear them, kay? Weird things belong to Big Bang LOL.

But thankfully, they mostly wear something really nice, really good pieces instead of weird! They look good on them, I guess because they know what is good for themselves. Like TOP, he's already too comfortable with coats and jackets and everything long-sleeved. And although I really want to see him wearing something else which is more revealing, I must say that he looks very good in this style hahah! This man is all about classy and elegant anyway. And I ship TOP and Prada. Many fans hate the coats because they hide his sexy body perfectly LOL but please, you guys too must admit that this man looks very elegant and glamor and flawless in those long coats.

And then Taeyang and GD with their gangsta style lol. All golds and diamonds rest on them! They wear things from Chrome Hearts from head to toe like, all the time. I'm still curious why Chrome Hearts haven't offered them an endorsement contract to be honest... I mean, they're surely one of their loyal customers! And both of them have even already came to the head office of CH and met the designers and their family. FAMILY. They're truly CH's gems, right?! Ok. So. Their styles. Scarves.. Rings... Earrings.. Belts... Leathers... Tank tops... Caps.. Beanies... Varsity jackets... Baggy pants... Well, it's Taeyang who dressed more like this, lol.

But for GD, he's versatile. He wears, practically, everything. Suits? YES. Tracksuits? YES. Woman clothes? YES. Skirt? YES. And surprisingly, he's good almost in everything. Those woman clothes he wears, look good on him instead of me, I guess... Like the flower-patterned jacket from Celine he wore in the Vogue photoshoot.

 

 

Daesung and Seungri wear simpler clothes! Simple, but fun! Leather jacket.. Sweater... Simple long-sleeved shirts.. polo shirts... The maknaes love the simple ones! Who says simple is unattractive? Sometimes simple is better ;) And who would you prefer to bring to your parents: the one dressed in fresh, clean, sophisticated clothes, or the one dressed in studded stuff? :p (But I'm sure, Taeyang and GD WILL NOT wear any weird stuff when proposing hahah!)

 

 

 

 

 

As much as I love the way they dress themselves, I don't approve some. Like, GD in skirt? Sorry, man, no matter how good it falls on your legs, I can't let it pass :(

And not only GD, I also don't approve his friend, Soo Hyuk, wearing skirts... Fortunately he's only wearing it in runways. Haven't seen him wearing any in real life!!

And then this purple velvet suit TOP wore... That's actually one fine suit, but I don't like the v-neck shirt beneath. I mean v-neck.. shirt... in purple... umm no.

And then this hair... thank God we're already passed this phase.

They're getting famous day by day, getting all the loves... and once I wondered how many do these boys get? Hahah but they really, reaaaally deserve it :) Their hard work... All of those sweats turn into money, gifts, etc. Big Bang is Big Bang. A group of beloved boys with their distinctive charisma, voices, and fashion sense. They love fashion, fashion loves them. Big Bang, together and individually, have endorsed Calvin Klein, BSX, FUBU, North Face... (let me silent for a moment because CK and FUBU ads by TOP is just flawless)

Oh! Other thing that's interesting for me, is the fact that they can differ what to wear on stages and on daily life, without losing their style! It makes me think that, they are their own stylists. They dress themselves with something that they really like, that match their personalities. Or their stylist already know them so well, know what they want, and what look perfect on them.

And not only their stylists, apparently... fans also already recognize their style lol. Fans buy them all things -like shoes, accessories, clothes, that really suit them perfectly. And I'm also happy when I know that Big Bang wears the gifts they got :') TOP is recently seen wearing gifts from fans! Like this brown Prada shoes! It's a gift from one of his fansite, UTOPIA!

And I should add that, as a big fan of TOP, this man should try to walk on runway. He has the face, the talent, the good body's proportion. He should join his fellow model friend, Soo Hyuk!! I mean, really, he walks on airport like walks on runway...

Big Bang is indeed a leader. They lead the music wave... Kpop leader... Fashion leader... Yep, fashion leader. Even GD said he wanted to open a clothing line!! That must be E P I C. I'm really sure he would open one in the future, though. He's really into fashion. I mean, he even attended Paris Fashion Week 2012!! And his looks while attending the shows were very, very memorable. I mean, come on. Who would forget a man dressed like this in a bright pink hair?

They wear branded stuff. From Chanel to Versace to Chrome Hearts to Thom Browne to Dolce & Gabbana to Gucci... name it all. They have it on their closets. And unsurprisingly, those brands, love Big Bang back. Have you seen the quirky MV of Fantastic Baby? Notice the crowns they wear at the end of it? To be honest, I thought those are some pretty crowns made beautifully by the creative directors of the MV. But nope. Those are actually some magnificent crown jewels, art works by Comme des Garcons x Christian Astuguevieille. Those, are probably not for sale, since they're displayed inside the glass boxes at Comme des Garcons Seoul. I mean, look. The privileges they get...

And few days ago, GD tweeted that he got a gift from Chanel and Taeyang tweeted that he got two pairs of shoes from NIKE...

Our gold and diamond boys, indeed!!! Ah! I'm writing this because I just randomly lurking around this blog: bigbangswaq.tumblr.com. And the source of some pictures I included here are from this blog. From this blog we can know what Big Bang wear... and they also tell the price and where to buy! But.. but.... they're freaking expensive I can only admire them from afar, while they're rested on Big Bang!

Oh, before I end this blabbering post. I think I could find a lot of better pictures of them, but I'm just too lazy lol. Sorry! Just trust me. They really, really, reaaaally have a great fashion sense! Fashion crime is far from them!

I was so excited when I heard that Daesung would have his own solo ALBUM and solo CONCERT. I mean, wow! After all he went through in past year, this could be his jumping stone to get better individual acknowledgment as an artist, as a singer. I love his vocal so much. He also deserves the chance to get a spotlight just for himself, once in awhile. 

But then, I got a little bit confused when the album would be a Japanese album, and the concert would be held in Japan. Japan, first? I know that it'd be such brilliant work from him no matter it's Korean or Japanese, but it's kinda weird, to be honest.  I mean why not Korea, where he has a lot of loyal fans who've been cheering for him since debut. I just think that YG should back him up for producing a nice, surprising gift for them. 

And then, couple days ago, I just figured out that it's a cover album. Means that Daesung will some already existing songs. I... got more confused. Again, although I know that he'd be amazing whatever he sings, I also know that he deserves a more proper album. By proper, I mean the album which really belongs to him, in which he has all the songs are owned by himself. The track  list can be found here. I'm a little disappointed, to be honest. I was expecting an album of him which has more tracks like Wings which is such a nice and sweet work from him and GD. I don't know is it the company's decision to produce this cover album, or Daesung's. But well, yeah, as disappointed as I am, I still believe that whatever it is, it's probably the best for Daesung for the time being. 

I don't know what are the reasons but I just wish he'd do well, although I know that he will :) And I really want to attend the concert, but no chance for me at all, unfortunately. No when I'm still a college student with limited money and time. I always cheer you from this faraway land, Daesungie! And I'm still very excited!!! I really am!!!! I'm very happy that finally we'll get a solo album from Daesung!! I'm never bored by saying this, but YEAH IT'S GONNA BE AWESOME!

While waiting for the album to be released, this is Wings, everyone. 

And... meanwhile. While Daesung's fans will get his own album, when will be Choi Seunghyun's turn..? I know, I know that he's busy in acting and I can't wait for his upcoming movie, Alumni, which I believe will be daebak (just like Into The Fire that made me crying for minutes). But I know him and I love him first as a brilliant, outstanding rapper, so I really wish he'd release his solo album sometime (sooner, please, I'm begging...) in the future. I know that he's more than capable in writing lyrics and producing good songs. I love what he has released before, like Oh Mom and Turn It Up. Especially Oh Mom. The lyrics, the story behind the lyrics, the overall song itself, the way he sings it, really melt me down. 

I mean, just look at his performance.

Another thing that I'm expecting? GD&TOP Vol. 2. As much as I want TOP to have his solo album, I also want this magical collaboration to be happened again. Just like what they said, GD&TOP is a double combo. Double perfection. The first album, GD&TOP Vol. 1 is pure gold, and I'm craving for more. Together, they're oozing their perfection, sexiness, and of course, the amazing natural rapping skill that they have. Have you seen the performance of Big Bang in MAMA 2012? Or I should say, the most amazing performance of that night? 

Here, if you missed it.

The first song they sang is actually GD's solo song, Crayon. And I got stunned, at the very beginning, when TOP came out and suddenly rapped his own version of Crayon and that's just awesome. And to be honest I thought that would be another GD&TOP stage just like in MAMA 2010. Oh, by the way, GD&TOP (and Taeyang) really owned the stage, in MAMA 2010. 

Flawless. Unexpected. Fierce.

My favorite track from GD&TOP Vol. 1 is Baby Goodnight. That song, and the music video, just go straight to my heart and I can't help but love it so much. First impression about this song: sexy. I'm not lying, but this is the sexiest song I've ever heard. Well, not only the song, the music video is also... sexy. But nothing beats the sexiness that they're oozing in live performance, to be honest.

Yes, I love live performance better. This is actually why I love Big Bang in the first place. They really sing with their mind and heart in every stage's they're performing in, and they always nail it. They have the right attitude on stage, no body can resist their charisma. And this is why I really enjoyed their live performance in Jakarta couple months ago. Best night ever.

Well, that's it. From Daesung.. to TOP, to GD&TOP. I really want them to be happened soon soooo bad. It doesn't mean that I'm not waiting for another GD/YB/Seungri solo, though. Three of them already have their solo albums. And actually I'm expecting Taeyang's work next year since actually he's been working for it for some time now! And GD actually has just released his new album this year, and Seungri just released his album VVIP last year. So, yeah, I'm just waiting for Daesung's and Tabi's turn...

Oh, you know what else I'm expecting for? Another Big Bang epic comeback, which is rumored to be released by fall next year. But seriously, since YG's calendar is messed up, so... better be ready for the expected shifted dates.
