BTS member Jungkook attended Calvin Klein’s Spring/Summer 2026 show at New York Fashion Week, followed by the brand’s after-party. For the main event, the 28-year-old singer wore a custom taupe-grey jacket with wide-leg trousers over a fitted vest, paired with black leather boots and a silver chain necklace. Multiple ear and lip piercings added subtle detail to the minimalist outfit.
At the after-party, Jungkook continued with an all-black Calvin Klein ensemble. The look showcased Calvin Klein’s minimalist style while staying true to Jungkook’s own taste, as he’s often mentioned that he usually favors black outfits. The after-party look features an ankle-length black coat, paired with a black shirt underneath and pants.
His appearance quickly attracted social media attention, with fans sharing updates and trending hashtags such as #JUNGKOOKxCALVINKLEIN.
During the press interview, the BTS maknae gave an update on the group’s forthcoming album, saying, ‘”Rather than a goal, we are preparing an album, so I think we should try our best to make the best album possible,” and added, “We should also make sure that we are in the best condition possible.”
Many international stars and Hollywood A-listers attended the event, including Lily Collins, Emily Ratajkowski, Rosalía, Christopher Briney from The Summer I Turned Pretty fame, Georgia Fowler, Solange Knowles, Iris Law, Naomi Watts, and more. However, the “Seven” singer stood out the most and grabbed everyone’s attention with his style and charisma.
Jungkook has been Calvin Klein’s global ambassador for Jeans and Underwear since March 2023. This event marks his first major solo appearance since completing military service in June 2025. The partnership has included multiple campaigns and increased brand visibility internationally.
The Calvin Klein SS26 collection, the second one designed by Veronica Leoni, emphasized minimalism combined with urban practicality. The lineup featured tailored silk dresses, structured jackets, relaxed power suits, menswear-inspired layering, and casual workwear. Jungkook’s runway and after-party outfits aligned with the collection’s focus on clean lines and versatile styling.
Meanwhile, Jungkook is expected to resume solo projects after completing work on the BTS album, with an announcement regarding a solo comeback and world tour anticipated in the coming months.
