Mahiwagang salamin, anyone?

Named by the internet as the new "it girl" of P-Pop, BINI's Maloi is a style star we're keeping on our radar. When she's not on stage with her seven bandmates-turned-sisters, the 21-year-old flexes her sartorial prowess with cool, casual looks. A must-have in her 'fits is a pair of bayonetta glasses, which have become trendy as of late.

A Quick Refresher on Bayonetta Glasses

Thanks to the uptick in academia dressing, bayonetta glasses are having a moment right now among fashion girlies. These sleek, rectangular-shaped specs got the name from Japanese video game character Bayonetta, who always donned a pair.

The sunglasses became associated with corporate style in the early aughts when the likes of Gisele Bundchen and Angelina Jolie wore them on-screen and IRL. In the fall season of 2023, models walked down the runways of Miu Miu, Balenciaga, and Stella McCartney rocking these bookish frames.

As bayonetta glasses continue to become an it-girl staple, it makes sense for someone like Maloi to always rock them. You could say a pair is her literal "mahiwagang salamin." (Get it, BINI fans?) For pointers on how to wear them, scroll through her looks we've curated below.
