Where to shop for clothes

Dawon’s Article

Hi, I am Dawon, and today I would like to introduce you to where Korean students like to shop for their clothes. I noticed that many of my friends prefer to shop online than buy clothes online, so I would like to recommend some apps you can explore if you were to look for new clothes for winter!

#1 Musinsa

Musinsa is an app that became extremely popular among street fashion lovers. It was launched in 2001 but it became famous as an e-commerce fashion platform in Korea since 2016. Nearly all of my Korean friends have this app downloaded on their phones and would have experience purchasing items through this platform. The price range is quite high, but there are a lot of famous fashion brands are offered including luxury brands. The delivery fee is free and they offer quite a lot of coupons and discounts. The best part of the app is that there are a lot of reviews. Since it is the most widely used platform, there are a lot of reviews to refer to. And if you are looking for women’s clothes there is another app called ‘Wusinsa’ which gathers only female fashion brands.

 #2 Zigzag

If Musinsa was popular amongst nearly all 2030s, Zigzag is especially targeted for women. There are a lot of brands of female clothing and their price range is relatively low compared to that of Musinsa. But since they offer cheap products, sometimes their quality is not guaranteed. So I recommend you guys to check the reviews thoroughly before making a decision! The good part of this app is that you can search for clothes at the lowest price possible, so if you are looking for a basic item, it can be a reasonable choice! Additionally, they sell a wide range of items from clothing to cute items like Griptoks, and phone cases.
