In this latest collaboration, Lisa steps beyond her role as a campaign model—she is now a pivotal creative force.
As the Guest Designer for Kith Women’s Spring 2026 line, the BLACKPINK member transitions from a brand ambassador to an influential creative partner. Early visuals from the collection highlight that this is a genuine fusion of her distinct artistic vision with the brand’s ethos.
Kith describes the collection as an embodiment of Lisa’s emotional journey, ranging from a “Hopeless Romantic” aesthetic to a deeper, more intense “After Dark” vibe. This transformation is visually represented through the garments.
In the softer designs, Lisa explores ethereal themes. Picture delicate lace ensembles layered thoughtfully over soft undergarments, with long-sleeved tops featuring ornate embroidery and a sheer veil gracefully framing her visage, reminiscent of a contemporary muse. A striking piece includes a cream lace two-piece, characterized by scalloped edges and floral accents—combining femininity with strength. Paired with elegant pointed heels and sleek, waist-length hair, the overall impression is refined yet not overly dainty.
In contrast, the collection also embraces minimalist elegance. A high-neck ivory knit top paired with flowing lace trousers creates a nearly monastic silhouette. However, the cut maintains a hint of sensuality that is complemented by the subtly embroidered Kith logo, linking it back to streetwear roots.
And then we shift gears.
The “After Dark” persona emerges vividly with striking black leather pieces. A belted leather coat, with defined shoulders and metallic accents, completely alters her appearance. In one captivating shot, she leans against a car illuminated by city lights, clad in leather that exudes confidence and cinematic allure. The tight-fitting leather pants, embellished with lace-up details, convey a bold, daring energy that is exhilaratingly fierce.
The most compelling aspect of the collection is its dynamic contrasts. Lisa avoids being confined to a single stylistic direction. The romantic lace and sleek leather styles harmoniously coexist rather than jostling for dominance. This reflects her evolving personal narrative, transitioning from a global pop sensation to a solo artist, record-setting musician, entrepreneur, and now, a collaborative designer.
Building on her previous collaboration with Kith in 2024, the Spring 2026 collection feels more profound. Lisa’s involvement transcends mere modeling; she brings her own interpretation to the designs.
The Lisa x Kith Women Spring 2026 collection will be available on Friday, February 20, at Kith retail locations and online at 11AM EST, CET, and GMT. If this is just the onset of her creative journey, it promises to be an exhilarating progression.
