Take a cue from Lisa of Blackpink, Bretman Rock, and Bella Hadid as they embody the spirit of maximalist fashion

In the centric corner of minimalism, there is only the quiet, pristine, clean. In other words, it’s predominantly empty. In the exuberant revolution of maximalism, everything becomes a living art form, and breathing individuals become artists. Picture a room adorned with mismatched furniture, a patchwork quilt tossed carelessly over a neon-colored couch, and artwork that clashes most spectacularly—that’s the maximalist’s playground, or rather, Lisa, Bretman Rock, and Bella Hadid’s playground.

Lisa

Celebrated for her dynamic stage presence and trendsetting flair, BLACKPINK’s Lisa effortlessly embraces maximalism in her wardrobe. Fearlessly combining patterns, prints, and a rich palette of hues, she creates a vibrant and energetic expression that mirrors the vivacity of the K-Pop group’s performances. Compared to Rosé, Jennie, and Jisoo, Lisa often dons a daring ensemble—perhaps a vibrant print paired with metallic accessories and statement boots. Her maximalist style serves as a jubilant celebration of individuality, refusing to be confined by even those around her.

Bretman Rock

More is not enough for Bretman Rock. His looks combine neon eyeshadow, bold lip colors, and enough glitter to be seen from outer space. It’s a riotous fiesta where surfaces and colors mingle freely, ignoring the RSVPs from minimalism and further influencing the digital space. In Bretman’s playbook, the only rule is that there are no rules, and the dress code is a wild mix of everything—including chicken feathers. 

Bella Hadid

Bella Hadid Approach to Maximalism

The runway icon takes maximalism to new heights, and sometimes onto geek chic. Envision her strutting down the streets in an ensemble that defies traditional fashion norms that circle back to almost every day: a plaid shirt, khaki shorts, and some white socks over black loafers. It’s a clash of textures, avant-garde accessories, and a fearless attitude blended with the normalcy of tradition sans the dullness it attributes. It works because she owns it. Whether it’s an oversized statement coat or an ensemble adorned with eclectic accessories, Bella Hadid’s fashion choices resonate with the vibrant spirit of maximalism—just scroll through her Instagram. 

Life’s too short for subtlety, and maximalism is the anthem of those who dare to stand out in a world that sometimes whispers. It’s about embracing your quirks, celebrating your eccentricities, and throwing caution to the wind. It’s the kind of style that Lisa, Bretman, and Bella would approve of—bold, unapologetic, and a little bit messy.
