K-pop idols may be known for their captivating stage presence, but walking the runway and performing on stage are two completely different things. Here are eight of the many K-pop idols who have captured global attention as they have a passion for fashion and attend high-end fashion shows worldwide!

1. EXO Sehun

Many EXO members are known as ambassadors for several different luxury brands — Kai, who works with Gucci, Chanyeol, who works with Prada, and Lay, who works with Valentino — and Sehun is no exception. Sehun has been working with Louis Vuitton for several years already, after making the whole world wonder who he was during the 2017 and 2018 Paris shows.

2. WINNER Mino

In 2019, WINNER’s Mino became the first-ever K-pop idol to walk the runway with the brand, Louis Vuitton. Mino was hand-picked by the artistic directors of Louis Vuitton himself, who said he appreciated both his music as an artist as well as his unique, eclectic style.
