K-pop star Rosé of BLACKPINK has been spotted embracing a surprising summer trend: high-end flip-flops. The singer has been seen wearing The Row’s Beach Flip Flop, retailing at $650, on multiple occasions.
Rosé paired the flip-flops with various outfits, from menswear-inspired looks to Y2K-style dress-over-jeans ensembles. These flip-flops are part of her all-Saint Laurent outfits, aligning with her role as a brand ambassador for the fashion house.
This trend isn’t limited to Rosé alone. Other celebrities like Kylie Jenner have also been seen sporting similar high-end flip-flops, suggesting a broader shift in summer footwear preferences. This marks a notable change from previous summers’ popularity of Birkenstock sandals, indicating a potential new direction in casual luxury footwear.
While celebrity-endorsed flip-flops come with a hefty price tag, more affordable options like Havaianas are available for those looking to adopt the trend.
