BTS Arirang Tour outfit ideas: What to wear to the London concert 2026

You've probably already heard the news: BTS are back on tour and after lighting up stages around the world, they are about to take over the British capital.

If you are one of the lucky fans who made it through the ticket wars, you're probably searching for outfit inspiration just in time for the concert.

Thankfully we've rounded up a selection of concert-ready outfit ideas inspired by BTS to help you put together the perfect look for the occasion.

And because no concert look is complete without a makeup that lasts, we've also included a few Korean beauty essentials at the end to help keep your skin fresh and your glam intact, even in the summer heat.

Embrace Korean-inspired fashion

Since the BTS Arirang tour is inspired by Korean culture and tradition, what better way to embrace the theme than with an outfit influenced by hanboks? It’s the perfect opportunity to wear something distinctly Korean and stand out in the crowd.

At Malkn, you will find a wide range of trending Korean fashion brands, but one that perfectly embodies Korean traditions is Teterot Salon. This label draws inspiration from hanboks and reinterprets them in a modern way, creating pieces that feel unique but comfortable enough for everyday life.

If you are looking for a hassle-free option, you should consider the Goyouui Jumpsuit, a unique one-piece inspired by the Korean traditional Cheollik dress.

Lean towards the signature red colour

Focusing on the colour palette is another easy way to capture the spirit of the tour. Despite purple remaining a synonym of BTS, many ARMYs have opted for outfits in a rich dark red colour, inspired by the Arirang era. From tops and shorts to even accessories, outfits stand out more if in this colour palette.

For a Korean-inspired take, you can definitely match the red Danbi Mini Skirt with the Flower T-Shirt from Teterot Salon. Paired with some dark boots, it is definitely the perfect outfit for the concert.

Outfit ready? It’s time to prep your skin before the show

With your outfit sorted, it is time to prep your skin to ensure that your makeup stays flawless from the moment you join the queue to the last song.

Great makeup starts with great skincare, and hydration is the foundation of any long-lasting look. Begin with the Round Lab 1025 Dokdo Toner, a lightweight formula that absorbs quickly while gently exfoliating dead skin cells and leaving the skin deeply hydrated.

Next, lock everything in with a moisturiser. Given the recent London heat, we would recommend you switch to a gel-type texture. The Iunik Centella Calming Gel Cream might just be the excellent choice.

Finally, don’t miss SPF. If you are planning on wearing makeup, we suggest the Tocobo Vita Airy Sun Primer SPF 50+ PA++++. However, if you are looking for a specific result, you might want to check our previous blog for some recommendations.

What is the dress code for the BTS Arirang tour?

There is no strict dress code for the BTS Arirang Tour, but many ARMYs around the world are opting for either Korean-inspired outfits or clothes in the tour’s colour palette, more specifically red, black, and white. Since Arirang is deeply rooted in Korean culture and traditions, fans are wearing modern hanboks to match the theme.

If the idea sounds exciting, you may want to check our Teterot Salon collection for clothes inspired by Korean traditional hanboks. However, if you prefer to stick with the colour palette, there are plenty of options on our website in the Arirang Tour colours.

What exactly is a modern hanbok and how do I style it?

A modern hanbok is a piece of clothing inspired by Korean heritage that reimagines traditional elements, such as the wrapped Jeogori top or the Chima skirt, into wearable everyday outfits. It can be a one-piece product, such as the Goyouui Jumpsuit or the Ice Field Dress, or a combination of different elements, like the Dotted Line Jeogori paired with the Mini Line Dotted Skirt. Whether a one-piece, a dress or a matching set, these modern hanboks are designed to be styled easily and matched with clothes you already own.

What are the colours for the BTS Arirang Tour?

The BTS Arirang Tour focuses on three main colours: deep red, black and white. These are the official colours used for the album as well as most of the promotional material for the tour. To match the visual vibe of this era, ARMYs are dressing up in this colour palette for the concert.

How can I wear a traditional Norigae accessory without a full hanbok?

You absolutely don’t need a full traditional look to rock a Norigae, as it is very versatile and can be used as both an accessory and a cute keychain. For the concert, you can easily loop it through the belt loops of your denim shorts, jumpsuit, or skirt or tie it around your bag. If you are looking for a red one, the Norigae-Pomegranate is an excellent choice; however, Malkn offers plenty of other options if this one doesn’t match your vibe.

Where can I find all the outfits mentioned in the blog?

Every single piece highlighted in this guide, from the Goyouui Jumpsuit to the Danbi Mini Skirt and matching sets, is available right here on Malkn. You can browse our dedicated Korean-inspired collection or click the direct product links throughout the blog post to secure your favourite look before the concert.

How can I check if the size will fit?

Every product page on the Malkn website features a detailed sizing chart with the exact measurements for waist, bust, length, and hips. While Korean sizing might differ from standard UK sizing, there are plenty of available options on the website, ranging from S to 3XL. For the best fit, we highly recommend grabbing a measuring tape and comparing your measurements to the chart before placing your order.

Will the TIRTIR Mask Fit Red Cushion last the whole concert?

Absolutely. The TIRTIR Mask Fit Red Cushion became a global favourite because of its 72-hour long coverage. Its high-adherence formula is meant to last for long periods of time and not melt away from heat or humidity, meaning that you will have good coverage even at the end of the concert. For even longer wear, prep your skin with the TOCOBO Vita Airy Sun Primer SPF50+ PA++++ before applying your cushion foundation.
