Balenciaga Dressed Jungkook in Custom Looks for BTS Paris Shows

Balenciaga built a full run of exclusive custom pieces for Jungkook to wear across BTS's two-night ARIRANG World Arena Tour stop at Stade de France in the Paris suburbs on July 17 and 18, 2026. The two shows drew approximately 184,000 attendees combined.

Each design pulled from Pierpaolo Piccioli's Balenciaga Fall 26 and Spring 27 collections. Each stage got its own look.

For the opening set, Jungkook wore black leather pants with multiple belt details, buckle-embellished moto gloves, and a high-collar leather jacket drawn from the metal stud detailing of Balenciaga's Le City bag. The first night of the second set shifted to a Le City stud denim jacket with patchwork logo details, a tie-dye logo tee, and baggy jeans. Night two went another direction entirely: a boxy textured leather short-sleeve top engraved with the number "10" (a reference to Balenciaga's historic boutique address at 10 Avenue George V in Paris), XXL pants, and opera gloves.

Across both nights, Jungkook layered Balenciaga accessories. Venom Boots. Boomerang Cat Sunglasses. A BB Icon Necklace. A DIY Pin Necklace.

The final stage closed with a custom hoodie and t-shirt that reinterpreted official ARIRANG World Tour merchandise in Balenciaga's house style. Both pieces went through distressed and washed finishes and carry layered graphics—Balenciaga's logo, Jungkook's initials, the album title, European tour cities, and the year "26"—produced via heavy metal application, calligraphy, stencil, varsity graphics, overdyeing, silk-screen printing, and appliqué.
