Blackpink

The K-pop singer has been a style icon for Chanel, Jean Paul Gaultier, Calvin Klein, Jacquemus, Adidas and more

Jennie Kim, member of the powerhouse K-pop quartet Blackpink, turns 30 today, on January 16. Known for chart-topping hits like “How You Like That” and “Pink Venom” as well as her solo endeavours like Ruby, the album she dropped in March 2025, Jennie has cemented her status as one of pop culture’s most watched figures.

Beyond the stage, she’s also a fashion front row fixture. Dubbed “Human Chanel”, or more affectionately, the “Chanel princess”, Jennie’s bond with the house of Coco has only deepened since she was named global ambassador in 2019.

As the singer steps into her 30s, we’re celebrating by revisiting some of her most unforgettable high fashion brand collaborations that shaped her reign as K-pop’s style icon.
