5th Gen Girl Group’s Outfits Go Viral For All The Wrong Reasons
Is this deliberate “nerfing?”
Hearts2Hearts‘s stylists are catching flack for the group’s recent outfits.

In photos from their live performances, members’ outfits appear messy and mismatched.

When looking at each individual outfit, it seems almost as if the outfits were created at random.

Netizens stated the some outfits even look like a “punishment” and are not harmonious with one another.

However, the “rookie” styling is often known to be the starting point of a group’s stylists finding the members’ best aesthetics and will only improve as time goes on.

Netizens commented on the cordi’s choices, sharing their mixed reactions on the polarizing looks.
- “I think SM deliberately nerfs their hair, makeup, and cordi early in their debut, then gradually improves their styling as they gain more experience.”
- “They do well with basic styling, but when trying for a quirky, kitschy vibe, their sense of style just doesn’t work. I get what they’re aiming for, but the top and bottom don’t blend naturally, they just clash and look disconnected.”
- “Feels like they tried to copy the styling of KiiiKiii, ILLIT, Choi Yena, and NewJeans’ custom outfits but failed miserably.”
- “Sure, sometimes the outfits don’t work, but overall, don’t they dress them pretty well? Even just watching the style mashups, they usually pick nice clothes.”
