After a two-year hiatus, all eyes were on the global superstar as he took over Paris with a string of standout looks.

Nearly two years after stepping back from the public gaze, Kim Taehyung, known globally as V of the seven-member K-Pop group BTS, has made his comeback not with a performance, but with pure, undeniable presence. Freshly out from the restraints of a uniform, the artist is not suiting up for a stage yet; instead, he made the fashion capital into his personal runway.
No longer the boy the world first fell in love with, Taehyung emerged as a man swathed in quiet confidence and understated elegance. Across his days in the French capital, his every appearance became a diary of his style evolution: effortless, intentional, and distinctly Celine. From classic silhouettes to form-fitting cuts, here&rsquo;s a closer look of his ensembles that made his return unforgettable.

Touching down in Paris, Taehyung arrived with a subtle yet striking statement with the outfit he departed in &mdash; a clean white long sleeve embroidered with Celine&rsquo;s Triomphe, left just open enough for a tease, effortlessly paired with a Marco flared denim jeans from the same brand. It&rsquo;s a look built to ease the weariness of travelling &mdash; seamlessly comfortable, yet impeccably curated.

Wasting no time lingering indoors, he walked right into the pulse of the city with a swagger ensemble that exuded unapologetic edge and sartorial cool. He was seen in a black lambskin blouson jacket by Celine, layered over a classic white shirt and dark denim pants. He finished the look with the show&rsquo;s invitational silk scarf &mdash; an accessory that would later become a defining part of his style narrative.

Taehyung attended Celine&rsquo;s pre-show dinner dressed in an outfit that perfectly encapsulated his mastery of refined sophistication. The navy crewneck wool sweater offered structure without stiffness, while the gray cashmere pleated pants brought movement and fluidity to the look. The square scarf in crocodile silk twill, unconventionally looped through the waist, and the red accessories added a quiet contrast against the muted palette.

<h4 style="text-align: center;">The Main Event</h4>

The Celine Spring 2026 Ready-to-Wear Fashion Show is one of the most anticipated collections, marking creative director Michael Rider's debut for the French fashion house. Showing up on a bicycle, the artist made an entrance that turned heads at the event &mdash; a moment that felt like a scene from a romantic film set in Europe.&nbsp;
Dressed in a custom ensemble, he wore a sharply tailored charcoal gray jacket that highlighted the Maison&rsquo;s signature savoir-faire, elevated by the bold geometric pattern across his chest that gave it a visual interest. The look was softened by relaxed pleated pants in a matching dark gray, paired with pointed black boots and layered minimalist gold necklaces that complemented the jacket&rsquo;s gilded buttons. Of course, it was completed with a heritage silk twill bandana, tied neatly at the side.

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Playfully Polished</h4>

With an air of playful charm and a hint of whimsy, Taehyung showed up the next day in a look that evoked boyhood nostalgia, reimagined through a sophisticated style lens. He wore a ribbed cotton jersey shirt with a striking red trim and a blue &lsquo;LIMBO&rsquo; graphic featuring a comical bunny, tucked into dark gray pants &mdash; a classic silhouette delivered with playful irreverence. Bringing in the fun, he carried a Bartholomew Bear Tote Bag from Jellycat, while a pair of Celine Black Frame 55 sunglasses in Caramel Havana added the right touch of cool.
