BTS’s V Returns: Taehyung x Celine’s July 6 Paris Show Sends Fans Into Frenzy

BTS’s V—Kim Taehyung—is once again making headlines as fans anticipate his appearance at Celine’s highly anticipated Printemps 2026 runway show on July 6, 2025, in Paris. This marks the fashion house’s return to in-person shows under newly appointed creative director Michael Rider, following years of digital-only presentations.

While the exact venue remains under wraps, the event is scheduled for 2:30 PM CEST and will be streamed live worldwide via Celine’s official website and YouTube.

A Comeback That Sells Out

Taehyung's fans are abuzz. After completing his military service in June 2025, he was recently spotted traveling with Celine luggage, reigniting speculation about his fashion comeback. Known for his immense influence, fans on X (formerly Twitter) crowned him the "Sold-Out King" after Celine products—such as the Triomphe bag and Knot earrings—quickly sold out following his airport appearance.

“Kim Taehyung is another level!” one fan exclaimed.
“Every time he touches something, it sells out,” echoed another.

Even simple clips of V packing a suitcase sparked excitement, with fans joking, “Model runway in Paris Fashion Show??” and others replying, “We’re so ready to see Taehyung covered in Celine.”

Fashion Industry Buzz

Industry watchers are calling the show a “reset” for the Celine brand. With Michael Rider stepping in after Hedi Slimane’s departure, the label is expected to debut a new direction in both design and energy. But what remains consistent is the impact of Taehyung’s ambassadorship.

Fashion analysts report that V’s previous social media campaigns delivered over ₩367 billion (USD $275M) in media value to Celine. Publications from ELLE to Hindustan Times have hailed him as the brand’s global face.

“V is not just promoting a brand — he is redefining it,” wrote Koreaboo.

Watch the Show

Fans can tune in on July 6, 2025, via celine.com or Celine’s YouTube channel. With the mix of a new creative director and the powerful “V Effect,” the fashion world is watching—and so is ARMY.this!
