KARINA of Aespa stars in Gentle Monster’s 2026 Veggie Collection fashion video
2026 Veggie Collection🍅
South Korean eyewear brand Gentle Monster unveils a striking new fashion film to showcase their 2026 Veggie Collection, starring Karina — singer, rapper, and dancer from Korean supergroup aespa. Known for their boundary-pushing approach to both design and visual storytelling, Gentle Monster once again demonstrates that their creative vision extends far beyond eyewear — delivering a cinematic and imaginative piece of work that is as captivating as the collection it celebrates. With Karina at its centre, the film crackles with star power and effortless presence, making for a collaboration that feels as bold and distinctive as both names it brings together.
“The 2026 Veggie Collection campaign, starring KARINA of Aespa, translates a bizarre obsession into a surreal mise-en-scène set against a desolate field. Gentle Monster presents the 2026 Veggie Collection. The collection offers a series of compact folding eyewear that reinterpret the forms and colors of vegetables with a refined yet playful edge, expanding the ever-evolving universe of Gentle Monster.” - Gentle Monster
