For years now, the members of BLACKPINK have been making the world their runway. Whether it's an appearance in Seoul, the Met Gala in New York City, a performance at Coachella, or a fashion show in Paris, the group is guaranteed to bring their A-game wherever they go. While Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa are often seen sporting the latest trends, they've also had some timeless looks over the years.

There's one look in particular that BLACKPINK has proven a classic: the little black dress. Fitting their group name, the members of BLACKPINK have made this wardrobe staple one of their signature looks. At concerts, fashion shows, red carpets, and even in a casual Instagram post, the singers have shown us time and time again that you can't go wrong with a LBD.

In an era where trends quickly come and go, sticking to the classics can seem a bit daunting. Luckily, BLACKPINK has given us plenty of style inspo, so we've re-visited some of their most memorable LBD looks over the years.

Going with an LBD doesn't always entail an all-black look, as demonstrated by Rosé. Elevating her previous sheer look, Rosé brought some sparkle to Yves Saint Laurent's pre-Oscars party in March 2022. Her glittering dress had speckles of red and blue, giving the look an unconventional pop of color.

As one of the first women in K-pop to attend the Met Gala, Rosé stepped on the red carpet in a trusty LBD from YSL. Of course, for the biggest night in fashion, Rosé gave it a twist with a white bow and styled it with a statement choker necklace, drop earrings, and pointy pumps. For glam, she went for a messy ponytail and graphic eyeliner, adding a bit of edge to the look.
