Following her appearance at Paris Fashion Week, it is being speculated that BLACKPINK's Lisa will sign as Louis Vuitton's next global ambassador. Keep on reading for all the details.
BLACKPINK Lisa Suspected to No Longer Be Working With Celine
In mid-January, it was rumored that BLACKPINK member Lisa and Celine no longer had a working relationship.
It all began when she donned a full Dior ensemble for the Disneyland Paris x Operation Pieces Jaunes charity event. The idol was seen with the French First Lady. Notably, the only Celine item Lisa carried was the Mini Besace Clea bag. Besides that, the idol was dripped in Dior from head-to-toe.
Netizens questioned why the global ambassador of Celine would wear Dior pieces at such a significant event. This sparked speculation that she no longer worked with Celine, especially considering Lisa's reduced frequency of sporting Celine outfits during her activities and at the airport during that time.
From late February to early March, Lisa was frequently spotted in Louis Vuitton pieces, notably during the SHINee and Taylor Swift concerts in Singapore. One piece that caught netizens' eyes was the Sunset Monogram Denim Bag.
Rumors even circulated among BLINKs on social media a month prior to Paris Fashion Week, suggesting Lisa's appearance at the Louis Vuitton show.
Will BLACKPINK Lisa Become a Global Ambassador for Louis Vuitton?
To fans' surprise, Lisa flew from Singapore to France. It was not known the idol would be attending Paris Fashion Week, as no photos of her at the airport were shared.
It was her Instagram story showcasing a special Louis Vuitton gift box for guests that caught attention. Moments later, she captivated fans with her stunning look at the Louis Vuitton show, stealing the spotlight from other notable guests and gracing Paris Fashion Week as if it were her personal runway.
Viewed from a broader perspective, Lisa's presence at the event wasn't made on a whim and actually carries significant implications. It's unprecedented for a brand ambassador to attend a rival's show with such enthusiasm, suggesting a potential parting of ways with Celine after four years.
Celine's absence from recent Fashion Weeks has put Lisa at a disadvantage compared to her BLACKPINK members. Additionally, the brand's global campaigns and magazine covers have become less prominent since the controversial Crazy Horse nightclub performance.
For Lisa to further her career in European and American markets and to elevate her influence, she may need to explore other options beyond Celine. With her global star status and rumored relationship with LVMH heir Frédéric Arnault, Dior and Louis Vuitton present compelling alternatives to Celine.
However, Lisa's loyalty to her BLACKPINK sister, Jisoo, who serves as Dior's global brand ambassador, may steer her towards Louis Vuitton. Will Lisa ascend to become Louis Vuitton's global ambassador post-Paris Fashion Week? Many are simply waiting for the announcement.
