IVE members Rei and Liz have been appointed as brand ambassadors for Italian luxury fashion house Valentino. On January 28, Maison Valentino confirmed that the two idols would serve as new faces of the brand and attend its Haute Couture fashion show in Paris later that same day.
Prior to becoming ambassadors, both members had already been invited to the brand’s major fashion events, including the Valentino Spring/Summer 2026 show during Paris Fashion Week in 2025. Rei and Liz stepped into their ambassador roles upon arriving in Paris, where they were photographed at the airport wearing head-to-toe Valentino outfits.
They later attended Valentino’s Haute Couture show, joining a star-studded front row that included international celebrities such as Sir Elton John, Lily Allen, and Tyla.
All IVE members are associated with major luxury brands, Wonyoung represents Miu Miu, whereas An Yujin has collaborated with Fendi for years.
On the work front, Rei and Liz’s group prepares to drop their second studio album, REVIVE+, on February 23, with pre-orders already underway. Alongside the album release, IVE is continuing their successful “Show What I Am” world tour, which began in Seoul in October last year.
Throughout 2026, the tour will take IVE to major cities across Asia, including Kuala Lumpur (April 4), Osaka (April 18-19), Manila (April 25), Singapore (May 9), and Macau (May 23-24).
