The actors or individuals in S.Korea film industry are far cry from K-Pop idols ofc.

They often have to deal with similar scrutiny though.

i see so many people in the streets of Paris in Balenciaga

you my friend are looking at the wrong social class... You will not see in the streets those who buy ghesquire's runway pieces. Even if your Balenciaga cult want to buy it, they wil not have the means to even view the runway pieces, moreso order it.

Oh yes, but it's less harsh than the K-Pop world. Actors are less constrained by style or beauty standards even if they are under management companies, something you can see a lot in actors of Gong Yoo's generation or the the ones who play in award-winning type movies.

I'm personally happy if none of Marc Jacobs' work is ever referenced.

more like they hardly produce any of it because there's no demand for it

Poor Nicolas is finished. He used to be my fashion hero but there’s nothing left. He just doesn’t care about fashion anymore.

What an eyesore.

Exactly. No one goes to Vuitton to buy RTW. The RTW mix there is close to 2% and sometimes even less, and you have to consider they are not even selling the runway pieces most of the times

I liked some of the items in the previous two runway shows. I tried to order them, but the actual books only offer a small collection of the looks.
90% the garments in the store are very logo heavy.
I would visit the store and observe people actively seeking garments covered with LV. I would see a sweater I like, then discover a huge LV logo either on the zipper pull or as a big arm patch. And the price is in the thousands for a basic pullover - not in silk or cashmere.

To quantify, out of the 5-8 looks I liked in the past two shows, I only managed to get one dress. The rest were not produced. 🤷‍♀️

Back in 2007, Balenciaga would host a trunk show where you could order 90% of the runway garments. I get that I'm not VIP enough to access the truly special LV offerings nowadays, but the limitation suppresses demand as well.
