G-Dragon Named 'Best Dresser of the 21st Century' by Complex

Singer G-Dragon has been selected as the 16th best dresser in the 'Best Dresser of the 21st Century' announced by the American fashion and culture media Complex Networks, his agency Galaxy Corporation revealed on the 18th.

G-Dragon is the only Asian artist on this list, standing shoulder to shoulder with global style icons such as Kanye West, Rihanna, Pharrell, and David Beckham.

Complex stated about G-Dragon, "He established fashion standards long before K-pop became a global sensation," adding, "He has always been a trendsetter, staying one step ahead."

The media continued, "Even nearly 20 years after his debut, G-Dragon continues to redefine the meaning of 'style' in K-pop," and added, "He inspires all genres to break boundaries and treat fashion as a form of self-expression."

G-Dragon has been noted for his unique fashion sense since his early debut, and is considered a key figure in establishing the so-called 'airport fashion' as a culture during airport arrivals and departures.

His fashion style is recognized as a form of artistic expression that goes beyond simply wearing clothes. From collaborations with high-fashion brands to street fashion, he has a continuous impact on the domestic and international fashion scene with his free styling that transcends genres.

In particular, he is credited with expanding the fashion spectrum of K-pop artists through genderless fashion, bold color combinations, and unique accessory usage.

Meanwhile, G-Dragon is set to hold a world tour encore performance in Seoul at the Gocheok Sky Dome from the 12th to the 14th of next month. His distinctive stage costumes and styling are expected to attract attention once again during this performance.
