At the zenith of contemporary K-pop artistry and high fashion, LE SSERAFIM’s Kim Chaewon redefines elegance and modern glamour in the much-anticipated December 2025 issue of Marie Claire Korea. This season, the rising icon embodies the luminous spirit of Swarovski’s masterful crystal creations, captured in an ethereal pictorial that blurs the line between fantasy and haute couture.

As the official brand ambassador for Swarovski Korea, Chaewon’s collaboration is a stunning display of refined craftsmanship and youthful sophistication. The visual narrative casts her as a crystal goddess, adorned in glittering silhouettes that play masterfully with light and texture. One captivating look features Chaewon in a pristine white mini dress, accentuated with delicate feather details that evoke the majestic grace of a swan. Paired with this, Swarovski’s signature jewelry pieces—sparkling Millenia and Gema collections—add exquisite dimensions of radiance, framing her with a celestial glow that is both powerful and whimsical.

In a striking contrast, the second ensemble presents a sleek, long silk dress, epitomizing modern minimalism with a cool, urbane edge. This look is subtly enhanced by industrial-inspired Dextera jewelry pieces, whose angular brilliance complements Chaewon’s confident poise. The hair and makeup choices mirror this duality: a soft, natural skin finish with a luminous sheen, paired with hair styled in gentle waves or an elegant chignon, creating a delicate balance between softness and strength.

The editorial’s styling and set design emphasize the transformative nature of Swarovski crystals—captivating in their ability to reflect and refract light, they elevate Chaewon’s innate star quality to new heights. Through this union of artistry and jewelry, Marie Claire Korea and Swarovski celebrate not only the pinnacle of creative collaboration but also Chaewon’s ascendancy as a fashion muse who channels both youthful vibrancy and timeless allure.

This December, Chaewon’s pictorial is a testament to the innovative spirit at the crossroads of music, fashion, and luxury design—a visual poem of crystalline elegance destined to leave a lasting imprint on the cultural landscape.
