SEVENTEEN’s Mingyu Faces Backlash Over Fashion Week Ensemble

SEVENTEEN’s Mingyu is facing backlash over his outfit at Paris Fashion Week.
The controversy started when Mingyu attended the DIOR Winter 2026 fashion show. Netizens slammed his boxy outfit, saying it was unflattering and made him look shorter with narrow shoulders.
Many felt the jacket’s shoulders looked smaller than Mingyu’s actual shoulders, which didn’t fit his physique at all.
“Dior menswear is honestly really bad.”
— Comment from social media
“Why would they dress someone with such a good physique like that?”
— Online reaction
“No, the jacket shoulders look smaller than Mingyu’s actual shoulders.”
— Netizen comment
“This looks like a punishment outfit.”
— Social media user
“What is going on with the pants this time too…”
— Comment on the full look
“The outfit is bad…”
— General consensus online
As the situation spread, fans shared pictures of Mingyu at the event, comparing the look to past Dior appearances.
