For Cosmopolitan Korea’s November 2025 digital issue, IVE’s Liz unveils a captivating collaboration with sustainable footwear brand VIVAIA, blending her familiar doll-like elegance with an understated eco-luxury aesthetic. This pictorial, shot in Seoul, celebrates minimalist glamour, where every frame captures Liz between softness and quiet confidence — perfectly aligned with VIVAIA’s ethos of beauty that treads lightly.

In the preview images released online, Liz appears in three distinctive looks styled to emphasize both tactile comfort and sculptural modernity. The first ensemble pairs a pale cream knit mini-dress with VIVAIA’s streamlined Aria 5 flats in shell white, her hair styled in flowing blonde waves that brush her shoulders. The makeup here highlights her porcelain tone with muted pinks and a faint gloss, allowing her luminous eyes to stand as the focal point.

The second look embraces early winter elegance: a structured sand-tone trench layered over a tulle slip dress, complemented by VIVAIA’s recycled-fabric ankle boots. Her hair is swept back in a half-tied twist, giving the effect of movement mid-breeze, with soft brown shimmer along the eyelids adding depth to her otherwise natural palette. This portrayal evokes a cinematic calm, echoing Liz’s evolving image from effervescent idol to style muse.

For the final look, the pictorial transitions into modern comfortwear—an ivory two-piece rib-knit set paired with VIVAIA’s pointed slingbacks. The imagery here exudes ease and self-assurance; Liz reclines against a velvety mauve backdrop, her makeup nearly bare save for dewy skin and a subtle coral tint. There’s an intentional sense of stillness, amplifying the campaign’s sustainability message through serene simplicity.

Behind this collaboration lies shared brand values: VIVAIA’s focus on eco-conscious craftsmanship using recycled ocean plastics, and Liz’s poised, unforced charm that embodies a new K-fashion femininity. Through Cosmopolitan’s lens, she stands as both muse and messenger—a reminder that beauty can be both conscious and effortlessly chic. This digital issue doesn’t just preview seasonal fashion; it frames Liz as the polished future face of sustainable elegance.
