Back to this week’s feature! Jennie is famous as a member of the global sensation girl group BLACKPINK. She is also well-known for being one of the most influential K-Pop idols in the industry. When it comes to fashion and lifestyle, many look up to Jennie as one of the most stylish and cultured idols. In fact, she is highly regarded as one of the it girls in the industry for her trendsetting nature. This speaks to how she’s been able to be a brand ambassador for luxury brands such as Chanel and others. In the case of Chanel, Jennie has a certain aura that embodies the essence of elegance that the brand represents. This aura has earned her the nickname the ‘Human Chanel’. We have to take this moment to appreciate her vintage and elegant aesthetic, too. Jennie is the blueprint when it comes to fashion inspiration for many K-Pop fans. Her Instagram account is like a mood board where one can get an idea of the hottest fashion looks. Fans especially love Jennie’s casual fashion and how she can make any clothing item look trendy. She can rock anything from street style to lovely fashion and everything in between. Her sense for accessories is especially great as it shows her ability to accent even the slightest details. In fact, even the accessories that she wears become topics of discussion among fans which sometimes leads to the product selling out. This is why she is so in demand as a brand ambassador. At the same time, as hip as Jennie is when dressed casually, she can also be fabulous when she’s glammed up. This goes to show her wide fashion spectrum. This is how she hears nicknames like ‘fashion icon’ and the ’next generation fashionista’. Lastly, Jennie’s fashion sense is not the only reason that she is so successful as a model on top of being an idol. Her visuals themselves are also stunning. She has a cat-like face type that accents her captivating gaze and porcelain-smooth skin, as well. If you knew nothing about K-Pop or BLACKPINK, Jennie would definitely seem like a model at first glance. Do you agree?
