How to

1. Read MUSINSA's February 11 runway report alongside Vogue's Seoul street-style gallery. Separate theatrical runway styling from what individual attendees actually chose to wear.
2. Layer a charcoal tailored coat over a grey hoodie and dark indigo jeans. Check shoulder clearance and move the hood so it sits naturally instead of bunching behind the neck.
3. For a less formal office, keep a blazer and charcoal trousers but switch the shirt to a simple fine-gauge knit. Maintain any dress requirements specific to your workplace.
4. Skip copying a huge faux-fur runway piece. Instead try one textured scarf or bag with otherwise straightforward clothes. One unusual detail creates a contrast without overwhelming the outfit.
5. Mix a clean black jacket with faded jeans, or a long brown coat with casual trainers. Before leaving home, test how the outfit feels walking, sitting and carrying a bag.
