All the fashion from the front row at the couture shows
Today marks the welcomed return of Couture Fashion Week in Paris, arguably one of the most important events on the fashion calendar. Every season, we are treated to fantastical designs from the creative minds behind the major fashion houses – from Dior to Chanel, Schiaparelli to Valentino.
This season, the autumn/winter shows are taking place earlier than usual – in June, rather than July – so as not to clash with the Olympics, which are being hosted in the French capital this summer. But, despite the change of date, we expect the fashion on display to be no less impressive – and then, of course, there's also the style to admire from the VIP guests and celebrities on the front rows...
Here, we chart the best-dressed attendees spotted at the couture autumn/winter 2024 shows this week.
