They pulled off a “Mean Girls” inspired look.
Koreaboo

Fans were proud of how far they have come. KATSEYE delivered, but their technical and stylistic issues ruined the performance.
Netizens were initially hopeful for the performance, as it was the first time in a long time that all six members were present. Previously, Megan was on hiatus with a back injury and Manon was missing for MAMA Awards 2024 due to illness.

However, EYEKONS were disappointed with the girls’ style. Although the KATSEYE members coordinated in holiday-themed green and gold, the efforts did not appear the same across outfits. EYEKONS hoped that the outfits for their upcoming performances would be improved…
whoever designed Katseye for the jingle ball will need to be publicly fired

I still keep the hope of getting this style during Katseye’s second jingle ball show because I wasn’t feeling very good tonight, no shade… pic.twitter.com/UGPAr2DWDB

I don’t know what it’s about but Katseye stylists recently made the UGLIEST designs I’ve ever seen for these poor girls to wear like my God 😭😭

…and they have certainly been improved! It seems that KATSEYE’s stylist has listened to EYEKON’s criticisms and wishes.

Fans have long hoped that KATSEYE’s style was inspired by the iconic “Jingle Bell Rock” scene from the film Bad girls.
It looked like KATSEYE’s clothes for Jingle Bell in Boston, MA were inspired by just that, as the girls also recreated the scene for a social media video.

As it turns out, KATSEYE’s beautiful red Christmas dresses were custom made by the iconic designer and brand Anna Sui. No wonder they killed so hard!
