Style Idea For K-Pop Fans
KATSEYE writes and performs as a six-member group, though only five took the Sahara stage at Coachella 2026 while Manon Bannerman was on hiatus. The sheer corset and knee-high boot combination each member wears is what carries the look, since every member styles it in a different color. Their debut Coachella set landed one day after “Pinky Up” released (Wikipedia), so recognition depends on how closely your crowd follows K-pop right now.

Daniela’s outfit runs on contrast: a nude top over hot pink bottoms, split by striped stockings in between. The high twin pigtails carry most of the recognition here, so take the time to section the wig into two instead of leaving it loose. The arm sleeve only comes in black rather than the nude shown in photos, so plan on that color swap.

Lara wears the only true corset in the lineup, boned rather than soft, and it’s what actually shapes her waistline. The gold bindi and face jewels come from her own festival style rather than the costume itself, since she’s worn similar pieces before as an Indian-American artist. Skip the corset and the whole outfit loses its structure.

Megan’s corset matches Lara’s nude mesh build, but the elbow-length hot pink gloves are what pull the eye to her arms instead of her waist. A small cluster of black feathers pinned to the belt is easy to skip when you’re packing, but it’s the one piece that breaks up all that pink and nude. Loose gloves slide down within an hour, so size them snug.

Sophia is the only member in a striped corset instead of a solid one, which makes her the easiest to pick out in a group photo. The white feather trim tied around her waist adds movement none of the other four looks have. Order the corset a size too big and the stripes stretch out of shape across the chest, the one detail that actually sets her look apart.

Yoonchae’s look is the softest of the five, with fuzzy leg warmers and feather trim doing more visual work than the corset underneath. The barbed wire choker is the only hard edge against all that fur and feather, so don’t treat it as optional. Leave it off and the outfit just reads as pink and fuzzy instead of deliberately edgy.
All five looks share the same bones: a sheer mesh corset or bralette top, a coordinating bottom, a wig in a distinct color, and knee-high boots. Go too matchy and it looks like a costume rental instead of five separate style choices. At a party, the fastest way to lose the reference is skipping the wig. The hair color is doing more work than people expect to separate one member from another.
Midway through their set, KATSEYE brought out EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami, the real singers behind HUNTR/X from KPop Demon Hunters, to perform “Golden” together. It was the first time the Oscar-winning song and a live K-pop group shared a stage. The crowd reaction was loud enough that clips of it outran the rest of the set online. That’s the moment worth referencing if you’re doing this as a themed group costume with friends already dressed as HUNTR/X.
Assign looks before you shop
With five different outfits, someone always wants Daniela’s pigtails and nobody wants to be the corset-and-belt member. Decide who’s doing which look before anyone starts ordering, or you’ll end up with two Sophias and no Yoonchae.
Don’t go full hot pink
Every look here mixes hot pink with a nude or tan neutral. Wearing hot pink head to toe without the neutral base skips the actual color balance that makes these outfits look intentional instead of just pink.
Corsets and wigs are worth buying new for the shape and color match. Base layers, thongs, and stockings are the easiest pieces to already have on hand.
KATSEYE’s whole identity is the five of them working as a unit rather than one lead singer with backup.
Start with a sheer mesh corset or bralette top, then add coordinating bottoms in nude or hot pink. Put on a statement wig and knee-high boots, then finish with pink or silver accessories. Each of the five members below wears a different color combination, so pick the one look that matches what you already own.
Yes. This was their first-ever Coachella set, and it happened one day after they released “Pinky Up,” their first single without member Manon Bannerman. The group also brought out the real voices behind HUNTR/X from KPop Demon Hunters to perform “Golden,” the first K-pop song to win an Academy Award. That combination made the set one of the most talked about moments of the festival.
Sophia Laforteza has said, “We’re only as strong as our weakest member. We need to make sure that we’re all showing up for each other.” Daniela Avanzini has said, “Having my five sisters being there for me is helpful because I know that I’m not in it alone.” On Manon Bannerman’s hiatus, Lara Raj has said, “She’s our sister forever. We love her so much and we built this together.”
Bannerman announced a temporary hiatus in February 2026 to focus on her health. The group performed Coachella as five members instead of six, and “Pinky Up,” released the day before their set, was their first single recorded without her.
They opened with “Pinky Up,” then played “Internet Girl” and “Mean Girls.” They closed with “Golden,” joined on stage by EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami, the real singers behind HUNTR/X (KATSEYE).
No. Each member’s outfit works fine as a solo look. Doing all five with friends just makes the reference land harder at a party. People will recognize the lineup as a group rather than five separate pink outfits.
KATSEYE has six members: Sophia Laforteza, Lara Raj, Daniela Avanzini, Megan Skiendiel, Yoonchae Jeung, and Manon Bannerman. The group formed through the 2023 reality competition Dream Academy, a joint project between Hybe and Geffen Records.
