According to fashiontimes, Aritzia named KATSEYE's 18-year-old Yoonchae the face of its Super Puff campaign Thursday, her first solo brand deal since the group's 2023 debut.
The group already holds deals with Gap, Fendi, Pandora, and Glossier. Now the youngest member gets her own puffer, her own campaign, her own day-in-the-life shoot. KATSEYE's third EP debuted at number one, the group has two Grammy nominations, and tomorrow all six of them are the SNL musical guest. Somewhere between the arena tour and the sketch show, the 18-year-old became her own SKU.
The copy is the product. The campaign is titled 'Get Caught in the Moment. Not the Weather,' and the jacket is built to move with her from plans to places to moods. A puffer with a worldview. Responsibly sourced 800-plus fill power, new shades like Mochi Pink. Weather protection is now a philosophy, and the philosophy has a fall colorway. She styled the inky charcoal version for an all-black look and the icy white one for angelic chic, which means the jacket has a personality and a whole mood board.
That is the modern deal. The band is the holding company, the members are the product lines, and the puffer is the flagship. Aritzia has not said whether the deal runs beyond this cycle, so the real question is whether the next solo SKU is another down jacket or a down payment.
YOUR TURN: name the next solo SKU out of a girl group: the dog, the drummer, or the group chat.
