K-Pop Idols Killed It During Milan Fashion Week

It’s been a huge year for the intersection of K-Pop and fashion. Idols have become a staple at nearly all major fashion weeks around the globe.

Between Jisoo and Stray Kids’ Felix and Lee Know making a splash at Tommy Hilfiger’s show and Twice’s Dahyun making her runway debut in the Michael Kors show during New York Fashion Week, K-Pop stars have already made a big impact on the fashion world this month before even going into Milan Fashion Week.

Much like the last Milan Fashion Week earlier this year, a slew of K-Pop idols have become the stars of the show at their respective events.

BTS’ eldest member, Jin, attended Gucci’s show, his first as an official global brand ambassador. The singer was announced as the luxury fashion’s latest ambassador last month. He joined NewJeans member Hanni, who was also in attendance at the show, Squid Games star Lee Jung Jae and Korean rapper Jay Park on the brand’s roster of ambassadors.

Versace ambassador Hyunjin of Stray Kids was in attendance at the fashion house’s Milan show. Designer Donatella Versace couldn’t help but show her love for the singer, even posing with a small plushie of Hyunjin’s representative character and the group’s latest album. Last month, Donatella posted a video of the singer visiting the designer’s home for a special fitting for Stray Kids’ upcoming world tour.

Ateez member San was also at Milan Fashion Week, attending Dolce & Gabbana’s Saturday show. Despite it being San’s first time at MFW, he looked right at home during the show and its afterparty, even stopping to pose for a photo with music icon Madonna.

To see the K-Pop idols who attended Milan Fashion Week, check out the list below.

Jin, the eldest member of BTS, has been booked and busy since being discharged from his military service earlier this summer. The 31-year-old, fittingly known by his nickname Worldwide Handsome, attended Gucci’s Spring Summer 2025 show, unsurprising as Jin was announced a brand ambassador last month. The singer looked stunning in a brown and maroon ensemble, finishing off the look with a silver Gucci key necklace and a silver Gucci trademark necklace.

It feels fair to say that Versace loves Stray Kids member Hyunjin, who has been a global brand ambassador for the luxury fashion house since 2023. The 24-year-old wore a patterned top and black necklace for the show, channeling his inner rockstar. Hyunjin, captured in an adorable photo holding hands with Donatella Versace, opted for a long red jacket over a black turtleneck for the designer’s afterparty.

Ateez’s San made his Milan Fashion Week debut by attending Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring Summer 2025 show. The 25-year-old singer made a splash at the luxury fashion house’s Alta Moda show earlier this year for his daring, structural look. He opted for a chic all-white look for the show, a perfect contrast to his all-black ensemble for the brand’s afterparty.

Boy group Enhypen looked chic and classy while attending Prada’s Spring Summer 2025 womenswear show. The seven members are brand ambassadors for the luxury fashion house, so it’s no surprise that they made an appearance at the show.

The group spoke with THR earlier this year about how their music was evolving. “We’re opening up a new chapter of Enhypen with this album, and I think it’s going to be a turning point, which will open up new potential for us,” member Jay said of their latest album, Romance : Untold.

Jaehyun, a member of NCT and its subgroups NCT 127 and DoJaeJung, opted for a sleek all-black look for Prada’s Spring Summer 2025 womenswear show in Milan. The effortlessly cool look paired perfectly with the singer’s newly debuted platinum hair. The 27-year-old also attended the luxury fashion house’s Spring Summer 2025 menswear show back in June, wearing a denim on denim ensemble for the occasion.

Last month, Jaehyun spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about his first solo album, J. “I really wanted this album to feel classic, so as time passes by, you could still listen to the album,” Jaehyun said of the eight-track album.

Seventeen member Hoshi sported an edgy and stylish ensemble for Diesel’s Spring Summer 2025 runway show in Milan, fitting for the elaborate backdrop of the show (the set was made of denim scraps to “highlight Diesel’s commitment to circularity in production,” according to an Instagram post). The 28-year-old singer signed on as a Diesel brand ambassador earlier this year. Hoshi and the rest of Seventeen just wrapped up a headlining performance at Lollapalooza Berlin and is preparing for an upcoming world tour.

Twice’s Momo rocked a stunning new blonde bob look at Onitsuka Tiger’s Milan show. The 27-year-old wore all black, a trend among idols during MFW, it seems. The singer is preparing for a new album fittingly titled Haute Couture with MISAMO, the Twice subunit comprised of Momo and the group’s other Japanese members, Sana and Mina.

NCT’s Jungwoo, a member of NCT 127 and DoJaeJung, wore the ultimate fall outfit to Tod’s Milan show. The 26-year-old opted for a trench coat over a pair of slouchy jeans. The singer, an ambassador for the brand, also attended their last Milan show earlier in the year.

Itzy’s leader Yeji made a bold statement with her stunning, dramatic ensemble at Dolce&Gabbana’s Spring Summer 2025 show. The 24-year-old channeled old Hollywood with a veil covering her face, along with her bright red lip makeup look, paired with an all-black look. Yeji and the rest of Itzy are preparing to release their next album, Gold, which will feature new versions of songs from their last album as well.
