Jungkook wearing the “Rimbaud Le Voyou” graphic-print T-shirt, featuring a portrait of French poet Arthur Rimbaud, on National Coming Out Day (October 11). 🏳️🌈
Arthur Rimbaud (1854–1891) was a revolutionary French poet whose unconventional writing challenged literary traditions and helped shape modern poetry. He is also remembered for his passionate relationship with fellow French poet Paul Verlaine, making his life and legacy significant in queer literary history. Rimbaud’s work continues to inspire generations of artists, writers, and creatives around the world.
The phrase “Rimbaud Le Voyou” translates roughly to “Rimbaud the Scoundrel” or “Rimbaud the Rogue.” The T-shirt features Rimbaud’s portrait alongside this title, bringing together literary history and contemporary fashion.
On a day that celebrates authenticity, courage, and LGBTQ+ visibility, this outfit feels especially meaningful to me who appreciate the connection between art, self-expression, and queer history. 🏳️🌈
