Kim Taehyung, aka V, donned a denim jacket and jeans for one of his shots for Elle. He showcased a bruise on his face for a more intense avatar, a contrast to his usual style on the stage. The intense attire was complimented with an off-white t-shirt, denim-styled jacket, pants, and classy black chic footwear.

The fourth look by V served as yet another illustration of the star's ability to portray himself stylishly in the simplest of attire. The BTS star is wearing just the red jacket—nothing else. V displays three different looks while wearing this outfit.

One of the images is black and white, and features V wearing a jacket and holding a rose in his hand, giving off a very enigmatic appearance. In the other image, V is seen casually posing while wearing a matching red jacket against the same background color.

The final image of V posing in CELINE showed him wearing a white shirt, short black pants, and a black leather jacket. This is yet another appearance that accentuates his style. V appears to pose close to the foot of the bed to get the look and exudes a very edgy vibe.

This outfit is one of the many that he wore that caused CELINE to crash and all the V fans to assemble to gather every piece of clothing that V wore.
