Aespa’s Karina, Giselle and Winter Style Strappy Heels at Melon Music Awards

Members of Aespa made appearances over the weekend on the red carpet, each donning similar shoe styles.

The K-Pop girl group hit the 2025 Melon Music Awards on Saturday in Guro-gu, Seoul. The award show honors South Korean artists. Other stars like Jennie, G-Dragon, Zico and EXO were also at the awards. Later in the evening, the group performed their songs “Drift”, “Rich Man” and “Dirty Work” on stage. They left the show with the Global Artist and Stage of the Year awards.

Before the show began, the women hit the red carpet in different looks. They each wore strappy heels but put their own twist on the style.

Karina wore a pair of black platform sandals. Her patent leather shoes featured thin straps around the toes and ankles for extra support. Giselle styled simple white heels, complete with thin straps attached to the toes and ankles, grounding the footwear. Finally, Winter wore black patent leather heels. Her pair featured stacked straps around the ankles as well as a sharp pointed toe with an embelishment on the shoe.

The women of Aespa paired their heels with various dresses, showing comradery without directly matching. Karina wore a black velvet midi dress with dainty bow straps, while Giselle wore a navy blue mini dress with a scoop neck exposing a matching crop top. Winter wore a fit and flare mini dress with a sparkly gold floral print over a black base. Each of the ladies added dainy jewelry to their outfits and wore their long hair down.
