We are blessed by the sartorial gods with two Paris Haute Couture weeks every year: one to push us through the final weeks of winter, and one to keep us in high spirits once summer is over.
The plethora of shows also brings with it the ultimate street-style inspiration, as we bear witness to some of the most eclectic, showstopping ensembles. Attendees from the A-list to the fashion set and industry moguls pull out all the stops to make a serious impression with their individual dress codes. Couture week requires an additional sprinkle of over the top modishness and we can’t get enough.
