Channel J-Hope’s Iconic Style for His “Hope On The Stage Manila” Concert at the SM MOA Arena!

ICYMI—J-Hope is coming back to Manila for “Hope On The Stage Manila,” and it’s about to be legendary! The SM Mall of Asia Arena is set to explode with energy as Hobi takes the stage for his two-night, sold-out concert on April 12 and 13, 2025. Fans are already gearing up with epic projects, and you just know the crowd is going to bring the hype like never before.

But if you’re still stressing over what to wear, don’t worry—we got you! We’ve rounded up some outfit inspo straight from J-Hope’s Instagram, so you can channel his style and show up serving looks worthy of the dance king himself.

J-Hope’s fashion style is the definition of effortlessly cool, blending streetwear, high fashion, and playful experimentation. He’s all about bold colors, oversized fits, and statement pieces that exude confidence. Think baggy pants, graphic tees, bucket hats, and layered accessories—all styled with his signature swag.

Aviator Sunnies, and Bandanas

Here’s a comfy Hobi-inspired fit that’s perfect for rocking at “Hope On The Stage Manila”! Since we know you’ll be heading to SM Mall of Asia Arena waaay early—meeting up with fellow ARMYs, finally seeing your online friends IRL, and collecting all the best freebies—you’ll want an outfit that keeps you stylish and cool under the Manila heat.

A bandana scarf is a must to stay fresh, and don’t forget your sunnies for that extra touch of swag! While J-Hope is sporting the Louis Vuitton Ride Sunglasses in this look, you can snag a similar pair without breaking the bank. The Rocco sunnies (PHP 1,495) from Sunnies Studios serve the same UV protection with style, coming in three sleek colors.

For the bandana, Bench has got you covered! Their stylish bandanas come in a variety of colors and designs, all for just PHP 79—a total steal for that Hobi-inspired drip!

You can find Sunnies Studios and Bench at SM Mall of Asia and various SM Malls nationwide.

Nike Air Jordans

You’re gonna be on your feet all day—walking around to meet fellow ARMYs, hopping from one spot to another in search of the best eats (that aren’t already packed!), and sprinting to make sure you’re in the right queue before the show starts. And once J-Hope hits the stage? Get ready to jump, dance, and vibe nonstop to his greatest hits!

Graphic Prints

Whether it’s bold typography, abstract patterns, or artsy illustrations, J-Hope always makes graphic prints look effortlessly cool. From oversized tees to statement jackets and even printed pants, his wardrobe is the perfect mix of playful, edgy, and high-fashion vibes.

Commonwealth, which you can find in SM Aura, still has a selection of HUMAN MADE shirts and sweatshirts up for grabs. And hey, who knows? Wearing a brand Hobi loves might just make you stand out in the crowd!

Fancy Bling

J-Hope’s jewelry game is just as fire as his fits—he knows how to take any look to the next level with statement bling. From chunky silver chains and stacked rings to sleek earrings, his accessories always add that extra touch of swag.

Take this photo, for example—our Louis Vuitton ambassador is shining in the Monogram Big Party Necklace, a bold piece that screams luxury. But if you’re looking for a more budget-friendly alternative, Swarovski’s Gemma necklace is a great pick for that elegant yet stylish vibe.

That said, while rocking jewelry at the concert is totally fine, always keep an eye on your valuables—you’ll be moving, dancing, and vibing in a crowd, so make sure your bling stays secure!

You can find Swarovski in either SM Mall of Asia or The Podium.
