Blackpink’s Jisoo has been a Dior devotee for a while now. In 2021, she was appointed a global ambassador for the house for both fashion and beauty, and has been a regular on the front row at Dior shows ever since.
The inspiration for Maria Grazia Chiuri’s spring/summer 2023 couture collection was Josephine Baker, but Jisoo channelled Audrey Hepburn on the front row, sporting a wispy fringe, a neat bun and a feline flick that was reminiscent of the actor’s signature look.
Creative and image director of Christian Dior Make-Up, Peter Philips, was behind the nostalgic beauty look, and also oversaw the make-up on the runway. Meanwhile, the musician’s chosen outfit – a white dress with a sheer shirt beneath from Chiuri’s autumn/winter 2022 couture show – echoed Hepburn’s penchant for elegant, feminine silhouettes and a monochrome palette.
Accessories-wise, the singer was one of several guests carrying the maison’s iconic Lady Dior bag, a style loved by the late Princess Diana, who was regularly seen with the patent black and navy versions hooked over her arm. Jisoo’s Lady Dior, however, was scaled down in size – big enough to fit only the essentials (purse, phone, lipstick).
