In the early hours of March 4 (KST), one of the most anticipated shows of Paris Fashion Week—Saint Laurent—unveiled its Fall/Winter 2026 collection beneath the sparkling backdrop of the Eiffel Tower. As cameras from global media outlets zoomed in on the star-studded front row, it was Rosé who once again commanded attention with a look that was understated yet radiant.
The BLACKPINK member opted for a neon yellow-green off-shoulder mini dress crafted from embossed brocade that shimmered dramatically under the Paris night lights. The fitted silhouette hugged her frame, while voluminous sleeves added a subtle vintage touch. Paired with her signature platinum blonde hair—reportedly maintained with bi-weekly bleaching—and fresh, glowing makeup, Rosé exuded effortless elegance. Compared to her previous Paris appearance, where her romper and viral photo alongside Hailey Bieber, Zoë Kravitz, and Charli XCX sparked unexpected debate, this season’s ensemble felt noticeably more refined and “safe,” allowing her natural poise to take center stage.
Under creative director Anthony Vaccarello, Saint Laurent has gradually expanded beyond its classic black palette, and Rosé’s evolving wardrobe mirrors that shift. In recent seasons, she has embraced brighter, bolder hues, signaling both her personal growth and the brand’s refreshed aesthetic.
Sharing the spotlight were global icons such as Kate Moss and Zoë Kravitz, as well as Asian stars including Milk Pansa and Kiko Mizuhara. Milk Pansa, recently appointed as Saint Laurent’s brand ambassador in January 2026, delivered a powerful monochrome statement with an oversized white bow blouse, leather jacket, and pencil skirt—an image far sharper and more mature than her on-screen persona.
However, one of the most talked-about shifts this season was the absence of Cha Eun Woo, who had previously been closely associated with the French house. In his place stood Ahn Hyo Seop, the only Korean male star in attendance. Standing at 1.88 meters tall, the Canadian-Korean actor embodied a commanding “CEO aura” in a tailored look from Saint Laurent’s Men’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, featuring the collection’s signature tucked-in tie detail. His sleek black hair and composed demeanor reinforced his image as a rising global fashion figure.
The front row also featured DJ Peggy Gou, model Lila Grace Moss, and actor Lewis Pullman, further cementing the show’s blend of music, cinema, and high fashion.
With Rosé maintaining her quiet yet magnetic presence and Ahn Hyo Seop stepping into a prominent spotlight once occupied by Cha Eun Woo, Saint Laurent’s FW26 presentation not only delivered cinematic style but also subtly signaled a new chapter in its relationship with Korean stars on the global stage.
