BLACKPINK's Jennie Went Full 2003 for Halloween, and the Original Suki Replied

Devon Aoki, the actress who originated Suki in 2 Fast 2 Furious, commented "Awww love this!!!" under Jennie's Halloween post. That is about as good as costume approval gets.

The BLACKPINK member posted a photo carousel on Sunday captioned "sukiiiiiiiii," showing her as the street racer from the 2003 film. She wore it to Kendall Jenner's birthday and Halloween party at Bar Marmont in Los Angeles, held on October 30.

The look, piece by piece

Jennie didn't go loose with the homage. She wore a purple crop top and a hot pink miniskirt, plus the corseted pink chaps that define the character. A long, straight wig in a warm brown-blond shade matched Suki's hair, and a statement belt with bedazzled hardware echoed Aoki's original styling. She posed in front of a red sports car, a nod to the franchise's car culture.

Suki is part of a Miami street-racing crew in the film, and her colorful, playful wardrobe set her apart. The pink chaps became her signature. In a 2020 retrospective of Aoki's most memorable outfits, i-D singled that ensemble out as her best from the film. Her pink Honda S2000 and unmistakably early-2000s style have kept a following alive for more than two decades, helped along by the Y2K fashion revival.

Friends, a second movie costume, and a new EP

The carousel also included shots from the party. Charli XCX appeared alongside Jennie and other friends, and she came in a movie costume too: Lee Holloway, Maggie Gyllenhaal's character in the 2002 film Secretary.

The pick suits Jennie's reputation as a fashion trendsetter. It pairs movie nostalgia with an era that younger audiences have adopted again. She has also recently released her physical EP Fallen Angel.
