The 2025 Menswear Paris Fashion Week is in full swing and K-pop stars could not be left behind. June 27 saw luxury menswear brand Dior open up its doors for some fun and adaptive clothing, with Korean stars from the groups SEVENTEEN and TOMORROW X TOGETHER marking their attendance. Dressed in business casual fits, they graced the event, which also saw attendance from the likes of industry biggies like Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, Mile Phakphum Romsaithong and Apo Nattawin Wattanagitiphat, Josh O'Connor, Li Yunrui, Pharrell Williams, Mia Goth, and Daniel Craig.
Mingyu's look for the 2025 Paris Fashion Week
Framing his 188 cm (6'2') frame in a monochromatic look, the SEVENTEEN member slipped into a white shirt and white shorts combo accentuated by a stunning brown belt. His footwear matched his fit, as the singer exchanged flirty gazes with fans on the way in. Lightly tousled brown hair resting comfortably on top of his head, Mingyu seems to have taken the theme to heart with a laid-back appearance.

4th Generation IT boy group, TOMORROW X TOGETHER, showcased a large spectrum of accessorised looks with bags and jackets adding more drama to their serious expressions on the carpet. Multiple pops of colors could be noted in their fits as the group seems to have assembled with business in mind. Youngest star of the team, Huening Kai, was nowhere to be seen as he was previously noted taking on another overseas event instead of this, carrying on his team's name far and wide.
The members were spotted exchanging chatter with 007 himself, opening up to Daniel Craig about their upcoming album and overall being an adorable bunch at the gig. This year's looks from the ready-to-wear Spring-Summer 2026 collection were right on brand and very acceptable, and we're expecting to see them around the blocks soon!

G-Dragon REACTS to allegations that BTS's J-Hope ‘copied' him
After BTS member J-Hope was accused of 'copying' BIGBANG's G-Dragon during Paris Fashion Week, the latter has finally responded in a way that has managed to garner a lot of attention online. Earlier this week, J-Hope, along with various other names in K-pop like GOT7's Jackson, Mark and BamBam , attended the Paris Fashion Week. While most were excited about the attendance, some netizens were quick to accuse the BTS rapper of 'copying' G-Dragon's style. A video of the idol taken by a fan had gone viral online after he was seen entering and exiting a popular luxury brand's headquarters. While covered in bling head to toe, most fans were delighted to see the idol's new style. The video, however, earned a lot of criticism after fans of G-Dragon called him out, saying that the new style was a direct copy of what the BIGBANG member has been doing for years. G-Dragon reacts While netizens were criticising J-Hope for his new style at Paris Fashion Week, it was G-Dragon who made the first move in the most subtle way. The BIGBANG member ended up liking a post that featured the BTS member in Paris, thus putting an end to the speculations and showing his support for the 'Killin' It Girl' singer himself. Fans react G-Dragon's activity on social media garnered a lot of attention, both positive and negative. While some cited that the idol was showing his support to put an end to unnecessary hate, others started criticising him instead. Some netizens, however, took over and defended both of the idols, calling people out for saying that the situation is being blown out of proportion. One fan commented, 'Why can't you accept they have a healthy senior and junior relationship?. And even without this, Gd likes everything; I got a few from him too, so I'm being stalked by him?'

Jonathan Anderson for Dior was a calculated, slightly dishevelled debut
The most eagerly anticipated show of Paris Fashion Week landed quietly but assuredly with Jonathan Anderson's debut for Dior Homme. Front-row seats at the Hôtel National des Invalides were filled by fashion powerhouses and cultural icons alike: Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, Sabrina Carpenter, and Daniel Craig, all lending star wattage to the occasion. After being named artistic director of Dior womenswear just weeks prior, Anderson becomes the first designer since Christian Dior himself to oversee everything: menswear, womenswear, and haute couture at the LVMH flagship. This was not a show trying to impress with scale. It whispered its point, trusting you were listening. The Dior tailoring —impeccable, still — was softened, made breathable. Jackets retained their lines, but with a shrug. Trousers came with a drop down crotch and relaxed, more exhale than exclamation. This was Jonathan Anderson doing what he does best: filtering heritage through instinct, turning formality into something that breathes. 'It's like pulling your favourites from a wardrobe,' says Akshay Tyagi, Mumbai-based celebrity stylist. 'It's got a bit of edge. It's got panache. But it's also easy and chill.' That balance is the essence of what Anderson delivered. Past meets present The official Dior press note framed it as 'a spontaneous, empathetic collusion of then and now… a reconstruction of formality' and that was clear. Donegal tweeds, regimental neckties, and 18th-century-style waistcoats were reinterpreted, not just revived. Diorette charms, delicate florals, and embroidery hinted at Monsieur Dior's love for Rococo romanticism and British culture, but were deployed with a kind of self-aware restraint. 'There's a youthful energy here,' says Dheeraj Reddy, Mumbai-based fashion creator. 'The reconstructed suit shorts, oversized bow ties and flowing capes were sharp but whimsical.' Dheeraj points to the cropped blazers and structured shopper bags as future must-haves. Meanwhile, the military jackets brought back a touch of Kris Van Assche-era (artistic director for Dior Homme from 2007 to 2018) structure, but less rigid. Arson Nicki, a US-based fashion commentator, calls it 'the strongest debut at a couture house in quite some time.' He cites the first look — imperial collars, bar-jacket silhouettes, sculpted cargo shorts, and fisherman sandals — as a thesis in itself. 'It was unmistakably Dior, but also recognisably Jonathan Anderson,' he adds. 'Anachronistic and of-the-moment; challenging and immediate.' Still, one could not ignore the elephant — or rather, the heatwave — in the room. Europe has been burning through summers in recent years, which made Anderson's use of heavy outerwear — full-length capes, trench coats, and tailored layers — feel at odds with the spring/summer label. Strip it down, though, and there is plenty that works: tailored striped shorts, cropped waistcoats, and a standout white jumpsuit that looked like it was plucked from naval history. The white jumpsuit with the black tie and backpack, which could be a hit among GenZ, was a sleek fashion moment—it echoed the union suit, a one-piece undergarment worn by sailors and workers in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Anderson's version, minimalist and sharply cut, felt like a modern-day wink to that utilitarian history. Less costume, more quiet reference. It is safe to say the collection flirted with commercial polish, occasionally wavering between clarity and contradiction. There were shades of Hedi Slimane-era Dior Homme in there — boyish, skinny, insouciant — but Anderson's voice stayed intact. A first show does not have to solve it all. Anderson's Dior debut was a careful tune-up. A calculated start for a new chapter —one that may speak louder with time. And in a market that is shifting fast towards quiet luxury, modular dressing, and stylistic fluidity, this collection feels future-proof.
