Actress Moon Ga-young is once again at the center of heated discussion after appearing at Incheon International Airport on September 17 in a lingerie-inspired look.
Moon Ga-young stepped out in a Dolce & Gabbana satin & lace slip, priced at approximately 2.2 million KRW (≈ $1,600 USD). The outfit, listed as lingerie on the brand’s official site, was worn as an outer garment, instantly sparking mixed reactions from the public.
Some praised her boldness, calling it a confident style statement and a successful viral marketing move for Dolce & Gabbana, for which Moon Ga-young is currently an ambassador. Others criticized the choice as inappropriate for a public space like an airport, with comments such as “She should respect TPO (time, place, occasion)” gaining traction online.
This is not the first time Moon Ga-young has drawn attention for daring fashion. In February 2024, she appeared at Milan Fashion Week in a lingerie-inspired outfit, which also divided opinions between “innovative” and “too much.”
On You Quiz on the Block earlier this year, she addressed her approach to fashion, saying: “People often assume I’m quiet and bookish, but I like to challenge expectations. I want to show that there are different sides to me.”
Some critics argue that Moon Ga-young’s increasingly provocative fashion choices may clash with her acting roles. She has reportedly been offered the lead role in the upcoming drama Whale Star: The Gyeongseong Mermaid as Heo Soo-ah, a character described as pure and mysterious. Skeptics question whether her bold public image aligns with such a role.
Fans who admired her intellectual and elegant image also voiced concern, warning that repeated lingerie-inspired looks might overshadow her acting achievements.
On the other hand, industry insiders point out that her choices have significantly boosted both her personal visibility and Dolce & Gabbana’s brand value. With 13.5 million followers on Instagram, every fashion moment creates instant viral impact. Some argue this proves her styling has successfully elevated her status as both an actress and a global fashion figure.
While Moon Ga-young’s recent dramas My Dearest Nemesis and Law and The CIty earned solid ratings and praise for her performance, her daring Dolce & Gabbana looks have dominated headlines—raising questions about whether fashion noise is drowning out her acting acclaim.
