VALENCIA.The other day I met a young couple who wore the same jeans and identical shirt with logo, also the same style of sneakers.The effect generated by seeing them was that of some grinding already growing to which their parents still insist on dressing the same.However, they were not twins but boyfriends.
It is logical to think that two people who share their lives and, surely, many concerns and tastes end up influencing each other and perhaps that, as in other aspects of their lives, also manifests itself in their way of dressing.If, for example, a couple likes the aesthetics of the 70s or both practice surfing, it will be easy to find in their cabinets of a very similar style.It is inevitable to be influenced by the environment.Undoubtedly, a couple who loves minimalism will coincide more than once dressed in a simple white shirt or in a total monochromatic look.This does not attract attention since it is quite expected.
Another very different thing is that a couple bought the same hunter or an exactly the same shirt, couples with twin cabinets that only differ in the size of the garments.People joined for love.
Experts say that this occurs from six months of relationship and that imitation is a very ancestral way to demonstrate that they like their partner.Perhaps among the animals it makes sense but that of wearing the same shirt to me does not seem to me anything ancestral, the truth.For couples, dressing identically to the person who loves himself is a way of demonstrating his love and who are united.They are also likely to think the same is a way of trying to fit perfectly with the other person, an osmosis that reaches aesthetics by erasing the identity of each one.It must be very boring to have the feeling that you are in love with a photocopy of yours.
The result is for many somewhat strange and absurd brushing the pathological and for others a demonstration of adorable love.
Keo-peul-look: la tendencia entre las parejas coreanas
The young Korean couples of dressing the same love.In a society where demonstrations of affection in public are practically non -existent, carrying the same sweater becomes a silent but effective cry of love.
This trend known as "Keo-Peul-Look" emerged there in the 90s when some Korean television stars began to wear the same.The trend became popular among Korean couples and there are specialized clothing stores where they can buy identical clothes and accessories to dress equally from feet to the head.They even have specific lines of sportswear, pajamas, for gala events ... Ggumdkji, run by Baek Eun-Joo and Lee Sang-Jun, is one of the most known brands specialized in “Keo-Peul-Look” best known by Korea.
The trend has extended to other Asian country such as China or Japan although at the moment in the West it seems complicated that it becomes popularized.However, although it is not common in the streets, on social networks the phenomenon has spread to many other countries.In a photo of Instagram it is curious and generates many likes, another thing is real life.
