Seonghwa, a cherished member of the K-Pop boy band ATEEZ, made his striking runway debut at Isabel Marant's Fall/Winter 2025 Paris Fashion Week. On Wednesday, the chart-dominating singer captivated the audience in a sleek ensemble comprising black trousers, a black blazer, and a daring combination of a flashy silver shirt layered over a collared one. His sophisticated look was impeccably completed with a pair of stylish heels. Prior to his runway appearance, Seonghwa had excitedly teased his fans multiple times about his impending debut on his Instagram, posting a series of captivating photos captioned "Walking in Paris" early in the week and later, an intriguing photo from behind, hinting at his runway attire with the caption "Soon to debut."
After striding confidently down the runway, Seonghwa shared photos and videos from the exhilarating experience, captioning them "Walking my dream into reality." He even included a heartwarming post-runway video, where he could be seen embracing and celebrating joyfully with Isabel Marant and the brand's creative director, Kim Bekker.
In October, the 26-year-old had made his first guest appearance at Isabel Marant's Spring/Summer 2025 show during Paris Fashion Week. Following his initial PFW experience, the K-Pop sensation elaborated on his fashion choices in an interview with THR. "While everyone anticipated me to don men's wear, I came across an interview of Isabel [Marant] where she mentioned her natural inclination towards women's clothing. I resonated deeply with her sentiment, prompting me to keep an open mind and daringly give it a try," he revealed. "I was particularly smitten by the high heels. I absolutely adored the final look; it felt as though the clothes were tailored specifically for me."
Seonghwa further emphasized the joy of expressing his individuality through fashion. "I firmly believe that everyone, irrespective of age or gender, deserves the freedom to wear whatever clothes they desire," he asserted. "As an artist, I'm fortunate to embody and portray multifaceted aspects of myself through our music, facial expressions in performances, and dance. However, with fashion, I get to express and showcase an entirely different facet of myself, one that wholeheartedly embraces and encapsulates my personal narrative."
