This might be the best thing about Coachella: Lisa just walked the runway for Victoria's Secret in the middle of the desert, right?
The 'Bad Angel' look is a new addition to Lisa's ongoing string of successes in collaboration with stylist Nan Nist.
Amidst an already packed Coachella 2026, Lisa surprised audiences by appearing on Anyma's set with their new collaborative single, "Bad Angel." Despite seemingly missing out on this year's Coachella due to an incident in Week 1, BLACKPINK's youngest member easily transformed the desert stage into a global focal point, where fashion, music, and visuals blended seamlessly.
From the very first moment she appeared, Lisa left viewers almost speechless with her futuristic look. Her choice of outfit was a Haute Couture design from Iris van Herpen – a Dutch fashion house renowned for combining technology and high-end craftsmanship. The design therefore clearly embodied a philosophy of interplay between technology, architecture, and the human body.
Bad Angel Lisa's appearance caused a stir at Coachella.
The form-fitting, metallic bodysuit, embellished with 3D, undulating details reminiscent of alien creatures, created the illusion of "spines" or biological structures moving with each step. The reflective metallic material under the LED lights made her body the focal point of all the lighting effects, almost glowing in the dark space of the stage.
The sheer cape at the back moved with each step, making the overall look resemble a fallen angel descending onto the stage. In just a few short minutes, Lisa transformed today's Coachella main stage into a haute couture runway. Complementing this were custom-designed Louis Vuitton metallic boots, completing a distinctly futuristic yet high-fashion look. This wasn't just a musical performance; it was a true fashion statement from Lisa, making the Coachella stage explode from the very first moment.
There were a few unintentional moments that made Lisa look like she was wearing angel wings gliding down the runway at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
Every movement and the support of the wind almost perfectly complemented today's outfit choice.
But if it were just about the outfits, this moment wouldn't have gone viral. The person behind almost all of Lisa's sensational looks during her peak visual period is Nan Nist – a creative director, stylist, and designer who previously served as fashion director at Elle Thailand and modeled for brands like Gentle Monster and Matter Makers. In addition, Nan Nist is a fashion influencer with over 83,000 followers on Instagram.
Nan Nist has accompanied Lisa to many major events, from the Met Gala 2025 with Louis Vuitton designs, the Emmy Awards with Lever Couture, to the Busan Film Festival with Maison Margiela, all showcasing a Lisa increasingly shifting away from her idol image to closer to the status of a global fashion icon.

Speaking to Vogue, the stylist revealed that she always focuses on many aspects of Lisa's personality and works directly with the artist to build the foundation of each outfit. "Each outfit tells its own story ," she said, emphasizing the importance of creating looks that are meaningful to both the artist and the fans.

At Coachella, Nan Nist's handling of Lisa's visuals was particularly noteworthy. Her perfectly straightened platinum blonde hair, nearly reaching her hips, created an almost surreal effect when combined with the stage lighting. The makeup followed a cool, sharp style: a luminous base, highlights concentrated on the cheekbones and bridge of the nose, and eyes accentuated with sharp eyeliner and light-colored contact lenses, making Lisa's gaze almost pierce straight through the camera. When combined with the sci-fi-themed LED visual system of the Anyma set, Lisa's entire appearance became as realistic as if she had just stepped out from the big screen.
And of course, we can't forget the element that makes this outfit truly stunning: Lisa's body. Her almost perfect body proportions, slim waist, long legs, and toned abs help the form-fitting bodysuit showcase its full potential.
Without BLACKPINK, Lisa scored points in her own way.
Lisa wasn't just singing; she was like a fashion model walking the runway in the middle of the desert. Every step, every spin, every cape toss, every pause in front of the lights was purposeful, creating an entertaining performance with high visual value. That's why many viewers commented that Lisa not only brought music to Coachella, but also the spirit of a world-class runway.
In a landscape where more and more artists are investing heavily in their stage image, Lisa still manages to stand out through a perfect blend of fashion and personal style. This appearance was not only a surprise, but also proof that the idol is gradually becoming one of the rare fashion performers who can transform any stage into her own domain.
If we had to pick one memorable, priceless moment that could have made Coachella this year explode, it would most likely be when Lisa walked out like a Victoria's Secret angel lost in the desert.
