A Partnership Built on Mutual Admiration
Mingyu’s relationship with Dior began formally in August 2024, though his affinity for the brand had been evident throughout his career. When the luxury powerhouse announced him as their newest ambassador last year, they celebrated with an Instagram post that perfectly captured their artistic alignment:
“Dior is delighted to welcome MINGYU (@Min9yu_K) from SEVENTEEN (@SayTheName_17) as its new ambassador. Pictured here in a burgundy Oblique suit, the musical artist incarnates the spirit and singularity of the Dior allure, endlessly reinvented by @KimJonesStudio, Artistic Director of the House’s menswear collections.”
Social Media Eruption
Within minutes of Mingyu’s appearance, social media platforms experienced what fans are calling a “Mingyu meltdown.” Multiple hashtags, including #DiorPrinceMingyu and #MingyuInParis began trending globally on X (formerly Twitter).
One viral clip capturing Mingyu’s playful wink to photographers has already garnered massive amount of views, with fans dissecting every frame. “HE LOOKS SO DAMN GOOD! DIOR PRINCE MINGYU AT PFW,” exclaimed one enthusiastic follower, while another commented, “The way he carries himself in that suit should be studied in fashion schools.”
Adding to the excitement, photographs of Mingyu posing alongside acclaimed Asian artist Zhou Ye created additional buzz, with many noting the powerful visual impact of two influential Asian creatives sharing the spotlight at one of fashion’s most prestigious events.

Cultural Impact Beyond Fashion
Industry analysts note that Mingyu’s prominence at Paris Fashion Week represents more than just a fashion moment—it signals the continuing global influence of K-pop artists in luxury spaces traditionally dominated by Western celebrities.
