Dior has officially chosen Thai actresses Lingling (Sirilak Kwong) and Orm (Kornnaphat Sethratanapong) as its newest brand ambassadors. This move shows how Thai drama stars are quickly gaining influence in the global fashion scene.
Lingling and Orm, popularly known together as “LingOrm,” rose to fame through their hit girls’ love (GL) dramas “The Secret of Us” and “Only You.” Their shows have earned huge international followings, making them two of the most talked-about young stars from Thailand.
Dior called the pair “a captivating duo who perfectly embody Dior’s spirit of freedom and constantly reinvented elegance.” Both actresses recently attended Paris Fashion Week and made a strong impression.
A report from Karla Otto, Lefty, and CTZAR showed that LingOrm generated more engagement and earned media value (EMV) than top K-pop idols.
- Orm led the Spring 2026 season with $23.5 million EMV
- Lingling followed closely with $21.5 million EMV
Their success came from being very active on social media, posting over 50 times about Dior during the season.
