Jennie Debuts Co-Designed Adidas Originals Line Centered on Ballet‑Inspired Superstar

The collection marks Jennie’s shift from ambassador to credited co‑designer by pairing a pointe‑shoe reinterpretation of the Superstar with her new EP release.

Overview

  • Jennie unveiled the collection at an event at AdidasWest Hollywood flagship on Aug. 28 that featured a sit-down interview with Tomás Mier and guests including Jeremy Scott, Bella Poarch, Dustin Lance Black and Tom Daley.
  • The line is organized around a concept called “Functional Grace,” which translates ballet codes into ready-to-wear and performance details across footwear and apparel.
  • The centerpiece shoe, the Superstar SQ Ballet, reworks the classic Superstar with a squared shell toe, ribbon detailing, an elastic midfoot strap, removable laces, premium leather upper and lambskin lining.
  • Adidas confirmed the fall 2026 collection will be available beginning Sept. 1 at select Adidas stores and retailers, through the Adidas Confirmed app, and at adidas.com/Jennie.
  • The collaboration deepens a partnership that began in 2018 and ties product rollout to Jennie’s music by timing the launch with her Fallen Angel EP, reflecting a broader fashion trend for ballet-informed sneakers and experience-driven retail strategies that may raise both commercial and cultural visibility.
