From New York to London to Milan, fashion week finally landed in the City of Light for Paris Fashion Week 2023. Dressing to impress, both on the street, attending shows, or even on the runway, our favourite celebrities witnessed the 2024 spring and summer collections from the most prolific designers of the moment.
As the home of the inaugural organised fashion week in 1973, Paris is an unmissable city for the who’s who of the industry. The first ever Paris Fashion Week opened with a Battle of Versailles Fashion Show. Referencing the historic tensions between Paris and New York, five French designers were pitted against five American designers. The event was a fundraiser to restore the Palace of Versailles.
50 years later, fashion may have evolved, but its cultural impact remains the same. Here are some of our favourite looks for Paris Fashion Week 2023.
