Decoding Jennie’s charm (Blackpink): the element that is sought after by all fashion brands

Not surprisingly, on the official launch day of the camellia fashion house’s new collection, she was one of the top guests in the front row to achieve a wide-ranging media effect: the hashtag #JENNIExCHANELFW23 received more than 158,000 tweets.

Since her debut, Jennie has been an attention-grabbing “magnet”, acting as the perfect bridge between the high-end brand and the mass audience. Even Jennie’s personal bandages worn under her eyes due to her injuries have become a popular makeup trend recently. Not ashamed to be called “Living Chanel”, Jennie has the ability to create trends with just a bandana.

“Trendnie Kim” won the hearts of the masses thanks to two contrasting images. On stage, she radiates the aura of a lady that makes others jealous, easily “weighing” every item with her sharp beauty and luxurious aura. On the contrary, on Instagram and variety shows, the female idol approaches the audience with a familiar and close side, with a sweet fashion sense like a “neighborhood friend”.

Jordan.

The mini bag born in Chanel’s attempt to “rejuvenate” the brand perfectly matches the confident “plastic” of Kim Jennie.

The commercial success of the marketing method in the new era makes Kim Jennie the face of many brands. “Shaking hands” with Chanel since 2018, making friends with Jacquemus and Gentle Monster, resonating with the fact that Jennie is one of the idols with the most followers on Instagram, the road between female idols and high fashion is being experienced. full of flowers, promising to bloom even more.
