Fall/Winter 2025-26 collections hit the catwalk

The French capital’s diverse venues are once again the backdrop for ready-to-wear collections, with local and international labels presenting their looks. Fashion critic Samantha Tse takes us through the highlights and introduces us to British designer Sarah Burton, who is the newly appointed creative director at Givenchy. Stars from the worlds of cinema and fashion were in attendance at the Louvre’s gala dinner, as the Parisian museum raises more than €1 million for its upcoming refurbishments. And we go through some of the stand-out silhouettes from Chloé, Courrèges, Alaïa and Dior and discuss a fashion pop-up aiming to pamper our cashmere sweaters.
