KATSEYE just served major looks in their latest interview with SSENSE.

The shoot, photographed by Jason Omar Al-Taan and styled by Spencer Singer, saw the girl group dressed head-to-toe in pieces currently available on SSENSE’s website. Set against a dramatic black background and a mirrored floor, the “Gnarly” singers modeled to their heart’s content, styled in girly and sporty silhouettes from top brands like Versace, Wales Bonner, Sporty & Rich and Vivienne Westwood, among others. From Lara to Sophia, each member wore two outfits that best coordinated with their curated personas.

Following the shoot, the members were also interviewed by Hyunji Nam in a piece titled “Embrace the Chaos.” In it, the group spoke about their new EP Beautiful Chaos, which drops on June 27. The new EP follows the group’s breakout debut EP, SIS (Soft Is Strong). They also spoke as a group to their strengths. Manon, the group’s center and visual, remarked, “What forced us into learning how to communicate was learning how we work with each other—and I think that was one of the biggest areas of growth and change.”

To celebrate the news of their upcoming EP and their stellar fashion moments, we’re picking our favorite pieces that the members wore for the shoot that you can shop now on SSENSE.

Styled on Lara, the group’s vocalist, this Wales Bonner piece is a glittering dream. The singer wore this high-waisted skirt alongside a brown triangle top and a billowing cream-colored button-up jacket. Retailing for $970.00, the garment is a minty hue constructed of silk organza and crinkled viscose layered overtop a twill midi skirt.

The layered construction gave way to sequins and beaded detailing that gave the piece a high-shine feel and textural interest. Darts at the front and back near the waistband offer the skirt structure We’d recommend sporting this skirt with pastel garments. Think pink, pistachio and light blue. You’d also want to offset the high-waisted nature of the skirt with something short on top, like Lara. For the warmer months, we could see this skirt styled with a white cropped tank, accompanied by low-top sneakers or thong sandals.

This sporty little number was also worn by Lara in her secondary look, styled with a plunging cowl top and a green and blue trucker hat. The Varsity Crest Disco shorts, hailing from Sporty & Rich, evoke retro vibes like something out of a 70s film. These shorts are high-waisted and made of a breezy bright red cotton jersey.

A contrasting white logo can be seen close to the hem of the shorts reading “Sporty & Rich Country Club.” Additional details include a concealed drawstring for a custom fit and three pockets to hold all your valuables. Casual and comfy, sporty pieces might work best with this one. We’re thinking colorful athletic sneakers or a cozy zip-up. To create contrast, you might want to opt for more formal pieces, like Lara.

In preppier fashions, Yoonchae wore this ultra-cozy Vivienne Westwood sweater. The group’s vocalist and lead dancer wore a coordinating argyle top to match, along with a micro skirt and heels. All preppy and sweet, this designer piece consists of a cotton knit and cinched ribbed trim that offers the sweater a form fit. Button closures give way to an orb logo detailing stitched to the bodice, an iconic design detail of Vivienne Westwood’s garments. To style, we recommend playing into the preppy vibes with this one, donning things like pleated tennis skirts or structured slacks. Or go the less-formal way like Yoonchae in micro shorts and your favorite kitten heel.

Worn with her Vivienne Westwood sweater, Yoonchae sparkled in these Valentino Garavani Ladycrush patent leather sandal heels. Retailing for $1,290.00, the footwear choice is glitzy and glamorous, equipped with glossy patent leather uppers in black and crystalized detailing affixed to the 3-inch heel.

The toes of the shoe are caged in, while the soles are gilded and embossed with the brand’s logo. Thin but sturdy ankle straps keep the shoe in place, made adjustable thanks to gilded buckle closures. All in all, this sandal evokes the flappers of the 1920s all liberated and whimsical. It’s a retro-esque silhouette that would look best with other formal pieces like a black silk maxi dress or a structural pinstriped suit.

Sophia, the group’s lead vocalist and leader, was styled in a Simone Rocha slip in a bridal white. The chosen garment was uniquely layered beneath a belted pleated skirt and a baby tee. It served as a supporting role in her ensemble, however, it’s a stand-out in our hearts. Worn on its own, the dress is simple and versatile, equipped with adorable white lace trim that further diversifies the otherwise plain silhouette.

The bodice is pleated and strappy, while the skirt is rather boxy, creating a welcomed juxtaposition. We envision this dress worn with contrasting biker-esque boots in black, bringing edgy vibes to this soft and subtle slip. Or you could play into the girly aesthetic and switch out the boots for ballet flats in a sweet pink hue. Otherwise, you could make like Sophia and layer this slip beneath something like a graphic tee or leather jacket.

Baby blue and absolutely perfect, these Manolo Blahnik Callamu heeled sandals just scream Sex and The City. Sophia wore these cute sandals alongside gray trousers and a deep blue cropped polo. The designer style is comprised of patent calfskin uppers in a delicate powder blue that transitions into crisscrossing straps atop the toes and a short and walkable 2.25-inch kitten heel. The shoe is backless, making it easy to slip on and off.

Working this style into your summer wardrobe will be a piece of cake. While the color might scare some of you, you have nothing to fear. The construction is simple enough that you can get away with wearing the Callamu with a bunch of different ensembles, formal or otherwise. For a casual brunch, we’d recommend pairing these heels with classic barrel jeans and a lacy white blouse. Headed to a formal dinner date? You can pop these on with a plunging ruffled maxi dress in black or white to offer the ensemble a pop of playful color.

Chopova Lowena is a designer best known for its whimsical skirts, often adorned with charms and edgy hardware. The group’s dancer and vocalist Megan wore this piece, accompanied by a striped polo top. The Sonny skirt is brown and green and features a cotton seersucker knife-pleated fabric that makes up the base of the skirt, attached to a grained leather belt.

The piece is littered with silver hardware, from carabiners to charms and adjustable buckle closures that juxtapose the skirt’s girly nature. We’d recommend going the maximalist route like Megan by tucking in a top with bold coordinating colors. To be truly maximalist, the chosen top should be filled with whimsical prints, clashing colors or patterns that create contrast when worn against the subtle checkerboard print found on the skirt.

Dsquared2 Khaki Jacquarded Poker Cropped Vest

A cropped poker-inspired cropped vest.

This knitted shetland wool vest was worn by Daniella, the group’s other lead dancer. The vest was styled alongside shorts with a built-in skirt and a choker necklace. This piece is playful, evoking nights spent raking in the dough at poker games.

Key details include a shawl collar, two-way zip closure and a cable-knit cropped hem that offers a cheeky peek of the navel when worn with low-rise bottoms. Card and dollar sign graphics are depicted on the front, while Dsquared2 branding reading “DSQ2” can be seen on the back. Chunky knitwear pieces like this are extremely statment-making. For this reason, we recommend you style this vest with toned-down pieces that play with structure rather than color or print like low-rise jeans or a gray bubble skirt.

Manon made like Madonna for the photoshoot, dressed in a Dolce & Gabbana cone bra made of shiny black satin fabric. The performer paired the bra top with a pink button-up worn open and black pleated trousers. This piece is structural and sensual, featuring a sweetheart neckline and dramatic conical padded cups. To style, we’d envision this piece worn with a suiting-inspired moment, like Manon. Choose formal pieces that juxtapose the bedroom-esque nature of the top like pleated trousers or a business-y pinstriped blazer. Sleek black patent leather pumps would look great with the designer top too.

Both Yoonchae and Sophia wore a Versace Gianni headband, red and silver respectively. Retailing for $179.00, the sparkling accessory features a raised and sculptural bow fixed to the top with an ornate Versace logo in the center. The headband is made of metallic silver patent leather calfskin. You’ll likely find success styling this piece as a statement alongside simpler pieces to make it more wearable. Yoonchae and Sophia wore the metallic accessory with preppy-inspired ensembles, something we’d bet would look good on you too.
