For its October 2025 digital edition, Allure Korea unveils a refreshingly spirited collaboration that pairs IVE’s Gaeul and Leeseo with Crocs in a pictorial that celebrates individuality, comfort, and modern youth culture. As two of K-pop’s most stylish rising figures, the duo embody Crocs’ evolving identity—where versatility meets fashion-forward playfulness—captured in an editorial that merges glossy pop aesthetics with elevated casualwear.
The shoot unfolds across pastel-toned sets and whimsical daylight backdrops that evoke a dreamy “modern wonderland” atmosphere, a visual cue reinforced by social media commenters comparing the styling to an Alice in Wonderland redux. Each frame balances Allure Korea’s refined editorial sensibility with Crocs’ iconic functionality, spotlighting both idols’ natural ease in transforming utilitarian footwear into fashion statements.
Gaeul’s first look pairs a cloud-blue oversized knit with crisp white platform Crocs, her hair in sleek chestnut waves softly tucked behind the ear to reveal subtle hoop earrings. Her makeup emphasizes muted rose tones and translucent skin, leaning into the dewy minimalism trending across Seoul runways this autumn. In the second ensemble, she contrasts structured khaki outerwear with soft cream joggers, embodying quiet sophistication—the perfect collision of city polish and laidback charm.
Meanwhile, Leeseo channels the youthful verve of Gen Z athleisure. In her first outfit, she sports a cropped lilac sweatshirt offset by white rubber Crocs adorned with vibrant Jibbitz—mini charms adding a personalized pop touch. Her makeup focuses on radiant skin and a light coral gloss, framing a look that feels at once innocent and spirited. A second look sees her don a sunflower-yellow mini dress layered with translucent nylon, giving off a futuristic gloss that harmonizes with the shoot’s playful palette.
Behind this collaboration lies a subtle evolution in Crocs’ brand narrative—transitioning from comfort staple to couture-accented streetwear essential—and Gaeul and Leeseo embody this shift seamlessly. Together, they represent a generation where comfort blends confidently with style, reimagining how everyday fashion can shimmer with self-expression. As Allure’s October cover pair, they don’t just wear Crocs—they elevate them into a statement of creativity, youth, and confidence in bloom.
