On October 4, BLACKPINK’s Jennie departed from Incheon International Airport Terminal 2 en route to Paris for the Chanel 2026 Spring-Summer Ready-to-Wear Collection Show. Known as the “Human Chanel,” Jennie’s airport look immediately caught global attention.

She wore a navy long coat with gold buttons that extended below the knees, combining classic elegance with a sophisticated finish. The oversized fit offered both comfort and a polished silhouette. She paired the coat with a beige knit sweater and black pinstripe wide-leg pants, featuring white stitching details for a modern touch.

Jennie accessorized with a black quilted mini bag featuring a gold chain strap, complemented by simple silver bracelets and rings. Her long hair was styled naturally, and her minimal makeup highlighted her clear skin and defined features. Fans and photographers alike were captivated as she waved, exuding both approachability and grace.

Fashion experts praised Jennie’s restrained elegance, noting her style is both trendy and timeless. Beyond K-pop, Jennie has firmly established herself as a global fashion and beauty icon, celebrated for her dual appeal of stage charisma and off-stage sophistication.

Since being named Chanel’s global ambassador in 2018, Jennie’s outfits whether airport fashion, photoshoots, or stage costumes have frequently sold out, demonstrating the so-called “Jennie effect.” Her ability to blend classic pieces with her own unique flair continues to set global fashion trends.

Jennie’s global influence extends beyond fashion. Her 2018 solo release SOLO surpassed 800 million YouTube views and topped music charts, showcasing her prowess as a solo artist. With 80 million Instagram followers, she is the most-followed Asian female soloist, underscoring her international reach.

Her professionalism, multilingual abilities, and global perspective shaped in part by her studies in New Zealand further enhance her versatility as an artist. Jennie continues to dominate the K-pop scene as a BLACKPINK member, while expanding her solo music and acting career, making her a true multi-faceted global star.
