With the severe winter cold setting in, functional and stylish winter accessories are emerging as essentials.

 

This season, the balaclava—a snug head-to-neck covering—has taken center stage as a winter must-have, blending warmth with a bold touch of individuality.

 

Balaclavas are especially popular among young fashion enthusiasts looking to make a statement while staying warm in sub-zero temperatures.

 

The growing popularity of balaclavas is reflected in search trends and sales. Major shopping platforms in Korea, like W Concept and Ably, show these winter accessories ranking high in search terms, indicating a sharp rise in interest.

 

Fashion brands are launching diverse options that appeal to this demand, offering various designs, colors, and materials to cater to a wide range of tastes.

The Rise of Balaclavas in High Fashion

 

Although balaclavas have been around for centuries, their rise as a fashion item traces back to luxury and influencer trends.

 

Italian luxury brand Miu Miu featured the balaclava in its Fall/Winter 2021 collection, sparking interest among influencers and celebrities worldwide.

 

Since then, popular figures like BLACKPINK’s Jennie and Jang Wonyoung from IVE have been spotted sporting balaclavas, adding to their popularity.

 

More recently, Wonbin from the boy group Riize made headlines when he wore a balaclava as part of his airport fashion, driving up demand for the specific style, known as “Laju,” he was seen wearing. Due to this surge in interest, some retailers have even experienced delays in delivery.

 

This winter, the variety of balaclava styles has expanded. Beyond the traditional knit versions, newer designs incorporate fleece and other materials, giving buyers more options.

 

Many balaclavas now feature versatile designs that can also function as hoods or neck warmers, combining practicality with warmth and style.

Ear Muffs and Head Scarves: Cozy Trends for Winter

 

Balaclavas aren’t the only winter accessories in demand.

 

Ear-warming accessories like ear muffs and ear covers are also seeing a rise in popularity.

 

These cozy pieces not only provide warmth but also add a playful touch to winter outfits.

 

One standout product this season is the Cable Fur Knit Ear Muffs by Rockfish Weatherwear.

 

With a cable knit exterior and soft fur lining, these ear muffs offer both comfort and style, blending seamlessly with other winter staples.

 

Another trend crossing over from fall is the head scarf, which was popularized by artists like Jennie from BLACKPINK and G-Dragon.

 

Originally a lightweight accessory for summer and fall, the head scarf has been reimagined in knit and fur materials to suit winter weather.

 

This seasonal adaptation has helped the trend transition smoothly into colder months, allowing wearers to enjoy this chic look year-round.

The Practical Appeal of Winter Accessories

 

With the early arrival of cold weather this year, sales of outerwear and winter accessories have surged.

 

An industry representative noted that “orders for winter fashion items have significantly increased due to early cold snaps,” adding that various women’s fashion brands are expected to see continued demand throughout winter.

 

This year’s winter must-haves are especially versatile, serving as functional, stylish additions to any wardrobe.

 

 

 

From balaclavas to ear muffs and knitted head scarves, these accessories add both flair and warmth to winter outfits.

 

The surge in popularity of such items is not just a trend but a reflection of how young consumers prioritize both style and comfort in colder weather.

 

Whether it’s through a bold, full-coverage balaclava or a cozy pair of ear muffs, this season’s accessories are about creating a layered, fashion-forward winter look that keeps out the chill.

 

As temperatures continue to drop, these essentials are expected to remain in high demand, ensuring that winter style stays as warm as it is trendy.
