BTS’ Park Jimin Steals the Show at Dior

The K-chaos continued at Friday’s Dior show, with newly crowned global ambassador Park Jimin drawing hundreds to Paris’ Place de la Concorde ahead of Kim Jones’ latest collection.

The Korean pop star was joined by his BTS bandmate J-Hope, who also attended the Louis Vuitton show Thursday, keeping all of it within the LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton family.

It made for probably the most electric front row of the week, with Jimin and J-Hope seated between Naomi Campbell and J Balvin, just seats down from Eddie Redmayne and Robert Pattinson.

J-Hope chatted with LVMH scion and Tag Heuer chief executive officer Frédéric Arnault through an interpreter. He said he tried to atone for sleep after Thursday’s Vuitton show.

Despite the madness outside, Balvin felt that the vibe of the shows this season is “more chill than it was once.” He has develop into an everyday at Paris Fashion Week, and took within the Vuitton and Givenchy shows earlier within the week.

He chatted with Jimin and J-Hope at their seats, and proclaimed himself a fan of BTS. Asked if there could ever be a collaboration with the group or solo members, he was up for the thought. “I met them before and I mean they’re great. I might like to, why not?”

“They’re doing it amazing. I see how their mood goes up,” Balvin said of the group’s popularity. “They’re singing in Korean; I’m Latino and I’m singing in Spanish. It’s all about having a worldwide reach. I mean, you gotta get to know somewhat bit concerning the culture and the sound but I believe it’s great. Persons are connecting with their music, which implies they’re doing the best thing.”

Fellow face of Dior Pattinson seem unbothered by the commotion and chatted with Redmayne about upcoming travel plans. Redmayne, clad in a classic suit, complemented Pattinson’s kilt. “Slightly extra ventilation,” he joked.

Pattinson appeared on screen to perform T.S. Eliot’s poem “The Waste Land” with Gwendoline Christie, while models walked to a meditative mixture of their words and music.

“Kim is someone that I’ve known for a very very long time and we now have a shared history meaning an awful lot to me,” Christie said. “Kim demonstrated what he’s all the time so good at, which is with the ability to see in people what other people can’t necessarily see, and make connections another way. It meant an enormous amount to me to really be brought along with this text, which I’ve never performed before, and to work with Robert Pattinson, who’s one in every of my favorite actors.”

“It’s very overwhelming actually and emotional, and I loved the strategy of working on it,” she added.

“The White Lotus” star Adam DiMarco reflected on how much his life has modified up to now yr. He got down to film the cult hit on location in Italy last February.

“That is all latest to me, it’s a very foreign world and I’m just curious, attempting to be a sponge and learn as much as I can. My brain is taking some time to meet up with my body. It’s very surreal every little thing that has been happening,” he said of his sudden fame.

DiMarco promised to not take any sartorial suggestions from his character. “He wasn’t particularly well dressed, so I believe I learned what to not do,” he said. Sporting a velvet track suit, DiMarco said he had no idea if he would get to maintain the loaned duds. “It’s really comfortable — I hope so,” he said.

K-pop has dominated fashion week, with fans turning up for J-Hope on the Vuitton show on the Louvre, and Big Bang’s Taeyang at Givenchy. It follows the mobs that stood outside the Prada show in Milan for BTS’ labelmate Enhypen last week as K-culture continues to make its mark on the style world.
