Jennie of BLACKPINK, Chanel’s ambassador, made a dramatic entrance at the brand’s Spring-Summer 2025 show in Paris. While her presence was expected, it was her new platinum blonde hair that truly stole the show. When asked about the drastic change, Jennie simply laughed, saying, “There’s nothing to explain,” before launching into her admiration for Chanel. “They always inspire me and give me positive energy. I’m always looking forward to their show concepts and looks.”
Her new hair wasn’t the only star of the show. She paired a vibrant turquoise knit top with mint green hot pants, adding a touch of whimsy with pearl necklaces and her signature Chanel handbag. This refreshingly youthful look drew inspiration from 60s style icons Edie Sedgwick and Twiggy. “I wanted to reinterpret their signature pop color combinations and styles in a modern way,” she explained. “I love reinterpreting the elegant and feminine styles that the original models wore for these events, putting my own spin on it, sometimes making it funky, cool, and chic.”
With autumn in the air, what kind of fashion is Jennie embracing? “When it gets this cool, I love layering,” she said. “I always pull out my favorite leather jackets and enjoy the season’s mood.” She’s also currently on a mission to collect unique pieces. “I’m collecting brooches, scarves, cute socks – things that make my outfits unique. And pants. There are endless colors and fits – it’s like a never-ending journey.”
Fashion aside, Jennie has a busy few weeks ahead. She’s gearing up to release her new single “Mantra” this month. “We’re both really excited for this one. I want to create spaces for connection and shared experiences with my fans all over the world.” About the new track, Jennie said it’s “a fun, upbeat song that celebrates girl power and encourages all women to shine confidently as themselves.” With the success of her previous hits “You & Me” and “Solo,” expectations for her new single are high.
The buzz around Jennie’s bold new look and upcoming music proves her impact on the fashion and music worlds remains undeniable. This is just the beginning of what promises to be another exciting chapter for the BLACKPINK star.
