Over at Ralph Lauren, NCT’s Mark Lee embodied polished tailoring in a pinstripe suit, while Jung Hae-In brought effortless charm to Dolce & Gabbana.

Thai talent was equally unmissable. Bible Summettikul exuded quiet allure at Giorgio Armani, while Win Metawin turned heads in a bold, vibrant red coat.

Next Stop: Paris

The Paris leg of Men’s Fashion Week saw even more Asian stars commanding attention. Jackson Wang, Gong Yoo, Thai heartthrob Fourth Nattawat, Japanese singer-actor Sho Hirano, and Filipino LA Aguinaldo brought their signature charisma to Louis Vuitton, while SEVENTEEN’s Mingyu and Stray Kids’ Hyunjin delivered sharp, fashion-forward moments at Dior.

At Saint Laurent, NCT’s Ten Lee captivated in a striking shade of purple, while Thai GL star Milk Pansa brought a mysterious, edgy energy in leather. Bright Vachirawit added a touch of boyish charm at Ami Paris. Rounding out the week, Filipino style icon Heart Evangelista made her Paris Fashion Week comeback, sitting front row at AMIRI, LGN Louis-Gabriel Nouchi, Hermès, and Sacai.

Together, these front-row moments underscored Asia’s growing influence on the global fashion stage—where star power, individuality, and style continue to shape the conversation from Milan to Paris.
