K-pop group Blackpink and singer Selena Gomez have unveiled a sugar-coated music video for their new track, “Ice Cream.”
Serving up a series of retro-inspired looks referencing 1950s pin-ups and 1970s flower power — think high-waisted beachwear and macramé outfits — the three-minute-long video boasts all the glossy visuals we’ve come to expect from both Blackpink and Gomez. In the opening scene, the American star pairs a striped bikini with a sailor hat, white gloves, chunky gold hoops and wind-tousled hair, as she drives up to meet the K-pop group in an old-school ice cream truck. Lisa, Jisoo, Rosé and Jennie — who are known for their maximalist fashion — then appear with chunky gold necklaces, a Dior newsboy cap, pink hair and cherry-shaped earrings. The message is clear from the start: Bold outfits and highly curated embellishments are the order of the day. From then on, it’s one colorful fashion moment after the other. Elsewhere, there are ultra-feminine floral dresses with giant puffed sleeves, and all-white tennis skirts and tops. Accessories help channel each member’s individual style, from Chanel belt bags to stacked statement jewelry and heart-shaped sunglasses.
