Affordable dresses in K-pop are more than a red carpet trend, they're an emerging staple in high fashion magazine pictorials. Jill Stuart, Alexander Wang and Michael Kors are just three of the major fashion houses that have released affordable diffuse lines. An example of a popular economical dress is the Michael by Michael Kors Long-Sleeve Fringed Lace Sheath Dress. The piece has been worn by f(x)'s Victoria in InStyle's February issue and Go Ara in The Traveller's January issue.

Another popular and reasonably-priced dress is H&M's $60 Beaded Dress. The article was worn by three K-pop idol favorites in 2014!

4Minute's HyunA donned the dress in the August issue of Grazia with a pair of chunky boots. SISTAR's Dasom wore the dress in the September issue of Esquire while lounging on a bed. Finally, "Gwiyomi Song 2" singer Clara modeled the dress in the October issue of Men's Health while enjoying a yummy cupcake.

The dress is part of H&M's Studio Collection. It's described by the label as a "short dress in sheer mesh with beaded embroidery. [It has] Raw edges, a button at the back of the neck, and chiffon lining." You can shop for the unique dress below!
