A month after suffering a pinched nerve in his arm following a minor traffic accident, K-pop boy band Stray Kids’ member Felix has made his first public appearance at a fashion event.
The 24-year-old Australian member of the octet is a house ambassador for Louis Vuitton. He showed up at Paris Fashion Week to walk the runway for the French luxury label’s Fall/Winter 2025-2026 women’s ready-to-wear collection’s fashion show on March 10.
The androgynous star modelled creations from the house’s womenswear artistic director, Nicolas Ghesquiere. Felix was dressed in a structured oversized black and white knit sweater, and checked pants topped off with a braided belt, while carrying a large blue and orange satchel.
The backdrop of the show was designed to evoke the historic Parisian train station of Gare du Nord, with Felix walking through an atrium. The attendees included prominent actresses like Emma Stone, Ana de Armas and Lea Seydoux, French First Lady Brigitte Macron and fellow K-pop idol Lisa.
The show marked Felix’s return to the public eye after a minor car accident in February. After the boy band’s fan meet in Incheon city, South Korea, a shuttle bus – which was moving slowly behind – collided with the left rear side of the vehicle he was in.
He turned up on the runway with blond hair. The star is known for often bleaching his hair to achieve the bright colour, but had recently dyed his hair black for a few months.
The idol, who last performed in Singapore with the Stray Kids at the National Stadium in September 2024, posted updates on his Instagram both before and after walking the show.
He showed photos of himself on a hotel balcony, with the Eiffel Tower visible in the background on March 10. In the pictures, he is wearing a black Louis Vuitton sweater and carrying a backpack with the label’s monogram.
In another post on March 11, where he was seen wearing a denim get-up from the brand, he thanked Ghesquiere for his support and said: “The show was beautiful.”
