That’s a complete wrap on Paris Fashion Week, with the 9-day fashion extravaganza coming to one almighty close last night following a megawatt presentation from Anthony Vaccarello at Saint Laurent. Vaccarello was tasked with closing out The Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode’s schedule and amped up the drama with a “fantastically 80s” collection.

Earlier in the week, the second portion of Paris Fashion Week served up the Fall 2025 collection of Victoria Beckham, who presented a collection that focused on form-fitting dresses and strong tailoring. This season, the Hermès woman got tougher while Elie Saab was all about après-ski glamour. Statement fur was seen on coats, boots, headpieces, and bags. At the Galerie de Géologie et de Minéralogie, Seán McGirr explored the relationship of English urban life and the great outdoors for McQueen.

Now onto his fifth Valentino collection, Alessandro Michele insisted his models strut a red-tiled runway, decked out in extravagant gowns, embellished suits and lace headpieces. At Balenciaga, Demna served up everything from floor-length hoodies and officecore looks to bathrobes and sportswear-inspired looks. Nicolas Ghesquière once again tapped into the traveling spirit of Louis Vuitton while Miuccia Prada sought inspiration from the 1950s for Miu Miu.

From the last ready-to-wear collection by the Chanel in-house design studio (before Matthieu Blazy‘s debut in October) to Harris Reed now onto his fifth season as the creative force behind Nina Ricci – scroll further for part two of theFashionSpot’s highlights of Paris Fashion Week Fall 2025:

The Fall 2025 season of Menswear Paris Fashion Week has been in full swing since January 21, and officially closes out today on January 26. Since day one, the jam-packed schedule the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode inflicted upon the fashion pack has been a one for the books. Day one kicked off with Pharrell Williams staging his seventh collection as Louis Vuitton menswear creative director. The designer sought his inspiration from rich Vuitton archives, and teamed up with Japanese designer Nigo.

At the Palais De Tokyo, Rick Owens demonstrated he was still in the mood for nostalgia and reflected on the early days of his eponymous fashion label. Julian Klausner, the newly-appointed Dries Van Noten creative director, called upon Willy Vanderperre to lens the brand’s Fall 2025 menswear lookbook. The collection consisted of flouncy, exaggerated shoulder pads, pussy bow blouses, feathered collars, and blazers lined with floral patterns.

The time soon rolled around to digest the latest Dior Men collection from Kim Jones, marking his first post exit as Fendi womenswear creative director. Inside a vast structure erected at École Militaire, models soon came down a vast staircase dressed in a collection that took direct inspo from a Monsieur Dior couture collection from 1954. The monochromatic color palette recalled that of the iconic ‘New Look’ as Jones revisited archival elements such as opera coats and detachable sleeves.

That’s a complete wrap on Paris Fashion Week Spring 2025, with Sébastien Meyer and Arnaud Vaillant of Coperni taking the fashion pack to Disneyland Paris to “magically” round out the fashion festivities. Since September 23, a total of 66 physical runway shows and 40 presentations have taken place within the City of the Light over the past week, making the Paris Fashion Week Spring 2025 season a one for the books.

Report: Paris Fashion Week Spring 2025

Mid-afternoon on Friday September 27, with a wildly star-studded cast including Gigi Hadid, Hedi Klum, Marcia Cross and Anok Yai (as the bride), Guram Gvasalia staged his latest Vetements collection, inspired by the Paris underground. Against a romantic and candle-lit backdrop of the Château de Bagatelle, Victoria Beckham presented her Paris Fashion Week Spring 2025 offering of sculptural breast plates, mixed print dresses, and cut-out tailoring.

Andreas Kronthaler brought punk to Paris for his Vivienne Westwood showcase while Nadège Vanhee-Cybulsk served up chocolate leathers that looked like butter at Hermès (and not even a PETA protester could distract from superb craftsmanship). Come nightfall on Saturday September 28, it was time to bare witness to the sophomore collection of Seán McGirr as McQueen creative director. Inside Paris’ École des Beaux-Arts, the Irish designer paid homage to the Alexander McQueen Fall 1994 collection, razor-sharp tailored suiting and Celtic influences.

Come Sunday, all eyes were on Alessandro Michele as he staged his debut runway show as Valentino creative director. Models paraded Michele’s designs of sumptuous fabrics, cascading ruffles, sequins, and bow detailing around a draped set and walked on a floor of broken mirrors. Closing out the weekend, Isabel Marant confirmed that the western trend is set to regain its momentum for Spring 2025, with a collection boasting fringe jackets, studded bags, and suede pieces.

Monday commenced with an open-air show from Stella McCartney at Paris Fashion Week. Oversized bags, suits, round form plush jackets in pastel colors, and splashes of red were consistent throughout McCartney’s lineup. Gabriela Hearst ditched New York for Paris this season, showcasing her creations on the Left Bank. Eclectic knits, sheer sheaths, and crinkled gold separates took the runway, next to sophisticated tailoring and some Western influence. To a remix of Gimmie More by Britney Spears, models at Balenciaga walked out onto an elevated catwalk, inspired by a dining table. Balenciaga creative director Demna, experimented with hoodies and denim, transforming jeans into gaiters and showing oversized sweatshirts with slogans that read “Fashion Designer”.

On the final day of Paris Fashion Week, Chanel (still without a creative director) ventured back to the Grand Palais. The Chanel Fashion Creation Studio team, gave us charming 1920s-style collars and classic tweeds that honored the brand’s rich heritage, while ostrich feather trim and delicate sheer looks floated past guests towards the end of the show. The finale was topped off with a live performance from Riley Keough, who gave attendees a rendition of Prince’s When Doves Cry, sat perched on a swing inside a vast white birdcage. At Miu Miu, Miuccia Prada doubled down on the no-pants look for another season. Nicolas Ghesquière honored the rich Louis Vuitton heritage with a runway inspired by the French fashion house’s signature trunks. Ghesquière’s lineup featured open peplum shirts, flowing silk dresses, oversized shoulder pads, and patterns by artist Laurent Grasso.

All the Hits & Misses From Paris Fashion Week Spring 2025

HIT | Louis Vuitton

“Go off and show off, Nicolas! Let the girls know you can challenge taste without it being ugly. It looked expensive, it didn’t look tortured. Bravo!” [reese06]

“I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVED IT. The soundtrack, the trunks as a runway. I loved the footwear, the bags, and the accessories. Ghesquiere is hitting his stride, I am so excited. I loved this collection, and I usually feel a way about what he’s been doing but I love, love, loved all of it.” [jeremydante]

“Great and surprising collection from Nicolas! Despite the layering in the styling, the amount of flow made it so enjoyable. Seeing those fabrics floating as the girls walked was fabulous!” [Lola701]

See all the looks from the Louis Vuitton Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Chanel

“Oh how the mighty have fallen…” [Frederic01]

“The set alone is a perfect display of the brand without a creative director: EMPTY! At this point, just give the CD position to anyone with a name because this cannot work for another season. Will it sell? Of course, it will, but it’s not sustainable.” [Salvatore]

“They are desperately in need of new creative director.” [Olaffo]

See all the looks from the Chanel Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Miu Miu

“My biggest fear happened: Miu Miu has become ‘The Lotta Volkova Show’. Is Miuccia even involved in the creative process anymore? It just looks like Lotta went to the archives, pulled a lot of stuff, styled the whole thing with some logo merch, and job done.” [Lola701]

“Styling is 50% of the brand now, and I just find it stupid. Just stupid.” [yslforever]

“I’m really annoyed by all the gimmicks – celebrities, styling, film. The clothes have nothing to say, honestly (and we can say the same about Miuccia).” [thiago]

See all the looks from the Miu Miu Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | McQueen

“1000x better than Seán McGirr’s debut.” [justpassingthrough]

“This is light years away from that heinous debut. It’s unexpectedly good. It’s not on Lee’s (or even Burton’s) level, but it’s was a good collection and a good show. He should’ve dumped the heavy platforms in favour of sleek stilettos and “floating” heels, but one thing at a time.” [LadyJunon]

“For me this show was a massive improvement from his debut, massive. We can all agree that we will never get McQueen in the dark version of yore, that’s a thing of the past. But I thought that McGirr this time got his s**t together and delivered a much more focused and commercially appealing collection.” [bc collector]

See all the looks from the McQueen Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Valentino

“It feels very déjà-vu and I blame the excessive styling. I believe without the amount of lace gloves, piercings, and better casting, it would’ve felt less Michele and more Garavani.” [thiago]

“Michele almost fooled me with that first look. The most anticipated show of the season and the most flop one. He confirmed he is a one-trick pony and has the most one-dimensional vision ever.” [FashionPower]

“No evolution. Gucci 2.0.” [Grets]

See all the looks from the Valentino Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Balenciaga

“Same shtick, different season. The sooner Balenciaga and Demna part ways the better. Absolutely cannot wait to move on from this monstrosity of a direction. This whole streetwear aesthetic for Balenciaga feels beyond tired, dated, and overplayed in 2024.” [vogue28]

“Why do we exist in a world where this vision of Balenciaga is tolerated…especially by luxury consumers?” [GERGIN]

“So pedestrian and basic. Remember when Balenciaga was synonymous with chic, fashion-forward clothes?” [tourbillions]

See all the looks from the Balenciaga Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Yohji Yamamoto

“Truly stunning. Seriously can’t stop looking at this collection. This is how you do real punk, kids, unlike any Hedi Slimane or Marc Jacobs take on it. I feel it like a contemporary, more sculptural Vivienne Westwood.” [philophile]

“I can’t imagine the Paris fashion week without Yohji and the lovely Hôtel De Ville. Hands down one of the best collections this season!” [Kanzai]

“Truly gorgeous. The master can do no wrong even if it’s just a little expansion of his usual vocabulary. In the sea of pretentious fashion, Yohji remains true to himself. A feast to be savored!” [dancv]

See all the looks from the Yohji Yamamoto Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Pierre Cardin

“That looks like an Emily in Paris collection. Dreadful, abysmal… a caricature.” [thiago]

“This is very bad.” [TomBlanksFullFatMiuMiu]

“Clown, clown, clown with a phone, another clown…” [miumeow]

See all the looks from the Pierre Cardin Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Comme des Garçons

“Rei Kawakubo should be careful at this point not to ruin her amazing legacy. This is tragic.” [90sfan]

“A collection of clown costumes by a once great designer.” [avonlea002]

“She’s been doing these ugly sacks/blobs for 10 years or more. It’s not gonna happen, Rei.” [Alquimista]

See all the looks from the Comme des Garçons Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Carven

“Not sure what happened here. I loved Louise Trotter’s first two collections for Carven. Everything here just looks off.” [tatouejeremie]

“I only see complacency here. Paris has been a disappointment. Nobody is trying anything new.” [Alquimista]

“I love what she’s done with Carven, but this collection feels a bit too complicated. Some of the silhouettes are too sloppy. It would have been a lot better if she showed more knitwear, some structured pieces.” [Kennnnn]

See all the looks from the Carven Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Isabel Marant

“It might be her best collection!” [prylvi]

“Isabel Marant really has a POV and makes the girls look great. Why can’t Pucci or Cavalli make shapes like that? So simple and easy.” [TomBlanksFullFatMiuMiu]

“Easy clothes for women to wear. I’ll take this over a lot of other collections this season.” [donyan]

See all the looks from the Isabel Marant Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Sacai

“It’s very Bouchra Jarrar, which makes me love it!! [IsabelMarantBoy]

“It’s really quite a captivating collection. Love the way some of the fabrics sit on the models, almost like armor.” [GoldenPetals]

“Love almost everything here! It’s hard for me to translate Sacai sometimes beyond the deconstructions, but this time they nailed it for me.” [Ihhbl]

See all the looks from the Sacai Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Akris

“Finally a tasteful and elegant collection is such a boring and underwhelming season. I usually like Albert Kriemler’s work and he remains underrated. One of the only collections to get frills right and the orange section is quite sublime as well.” [Fiercification]

“I like this. So sleek and easy on the eyes. There’s just something that seems so pure about this.” [Cocteau Stone]

“I like this so much! A relief to see this. A nice breeze through this collection – just the right timbre with pleasant moments. It’s so light. Bravo.” [TerraVera]

See all the looks from the Akris Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Duran Lantink

“This is flat as a pancake. What’s the content? Feels like a New York brand trying its hand at being avant-garde.” [Norden]

“It was interesting for a milli-second…” [90sfan]

“I want to know who is backing this brand? All the campaigns, shows every season, that kind of casting and all that press meanwhile you have 4-5 pieces on a rack in Dover Street which doesn’t seem to sell.” [NoInvite]

See all the looks from the Duran Lantink Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Stella McCartney

“This is so messy.” [youthinasia]

“It’s a bit all over the place indeed. I can’t see any cohesion in this collection. Oversized suits, chiffon dresses, leather dresses, t dresses, ripped pants/tops/dresses, lace, wool balloon tops, sequin, pearls. cut-ouPhew, that’s a lot to take.” [Valentine27]

“It’s like the Ann Taylor and Hervé Léger shows got mixed together.” [Irere]

See all the looks from the Stella McCartney Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Gabriela Hearst

“She should stay in NYFW where this collection belongs.” [JohannesL]

“”As a Uruguayan designer, Gabriela Hearst would have the ideal opportunity to put the traditional fabrics of her country and Latin America on the international map, but this set of things is a mix of meaningless things that, instead of making you raise an eyebrow, invites you to close both eyes.” [IndigoHomme]

See all the looks from the Gabriela Hearst Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood

“Sad to say… I just don’t feel Vivienne anymore.” [bennyboy]

“Where’s the ‘punk’? How can you be anti-mainstream, when you create something so easily digestible? With a brand like VW I don’t even care if it’s try-hard or edgy or obnoxious, because that’s the entire point!” [Machinegumm]

“It was cleaner, more commercial. It lacked that defiant punk energy that Vivienne did so well.
Even the runway soundtrack was odd, it wasn’t Vivienne Westwood at all.” [jeremydante]

See all the looks from the Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Hermès

“Hermès womenswear is one of a kind! Nadège Vanhee-Cybulski is doing an exceptional job! Great collection. Love the see-through knit. Stunning. Nobody does timeless luxury like them.” [imjustken]

“I really enjoyed the show! Loved the set and also the dynamic walks. I find the collection very appealing.” [Valentine27]

“This is absolutely sufficient for Hermès. It’s the quiet conservative high-quality luxury that its clientele is looking for. Hermès is the LAST fashion house that needs to be ‘fashion-forward’. The brand is already so mature and so well SET, it already has a reliable surefire formula – both commercially and creatively.” [GoldenPetals]

See all the looks from the Hermès Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Vetements

“Dreadful.” [GoldenPetals]

“I couldn’t care less about the clothes. Pure trash.” [thiago]

“Wants to be Balenciaga, it ends being Philipp Plein.” [carla56]

See all the looks from the Vetements Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Victoria Beckham

“She’s desperately trying to be someone she clearly isn’t.” [helmutnotdead]

“Why is Victoria Beckham always trying so hard to be someone she isn’t? She should do a sexier, more glamorous take on minimalism and stop with the artsy nonsense.” [avonlea002]

“She could donate the money to the poor, instead of doing poor fashion every season.” [90sfan]

See all the looks from the Victoria Beckham Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Junya Watanabe

“I love this! Saw the first look and knew this was going to be a hit. Junya rarely disappoints.” [Machinegumm]

“The amount of ideas here is on a whole other level, very impressive.” [tatouejeremie]

“Absolute gold! zeroWhat a relief after the barrage-effortfort collections from all the other brands!” [amak]

See all the looks from the Junya Watanabe Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Ann Demeulemeester

“Another brand that makes no sense without its founder.” [avonlea002]

“Ann D mixed with ‘dumpster diving homeless people’. Stefano Gallici better correct course for next season, because this is NOT the direction this brand should go.” [Machinegumm]

“Ann was never ratty. Bohemian, yes, in the likes of Baudelaire perhaps but not ratty.” [Not Plain Jane]

See all the looks from the Ann Demeulemeester Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Ludovic de Saint Sernin

“His work is starting to grow on me. It’s well constructed, which isn’t something most of his peers can say.” [LadyJunon]

“Not even going to lie and probably will be put into tFS timeout, but … I am into it!” [Savatore]

“I think this is beautiful…” [thiago]

See all the looks from the Ludovic de Saint Sernin Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Coperni

“Their shows have been so hyped and are always so… whelming? IDK.” [thenewclassic]

“How do you say ‘Stunt Queens’ in French?” [Jacque Marcel]

“So Kylie was obviously just there to make the show go viral?” [nationalsalt]

The post Here’s Part Two of the Hits & (Surprising) Misses of Paris Fashion Week Spring 2025 appeared first on theFashionSpot.

If you thought the first portion of Paris Fashion Week was something to behold for the Spring 2025 season, the second half of the 9-day event granted us just as many fantastical fashion moments. McQueen’s Seán McGirr staged his sophomore collection as creative director, presenting razor-sharp tailored suiting and references to the Alexander McQueen Fall 1994 collection. Alessandro Michele made his long-awaited debut as Valentino creative director, staging his first runway at the helm of the luxury Italian fashion house. Sumptuous fabrics, cascading ruffles, sequins, and bow detailing were on full display, as models walked across a runway of broken glass. Chanel staged its first prêt-à-porter show without an official creative director while Nicolas Ghesquière‘s Louis Vuitton showcase paid homage to the rich heritage of the French fashion house.

See, we told you the second half of PFW would save the best moments for last. Scroll further for part two of theFashionSpot’s highlights from Paris Fashion Week Spring 2025:

The post Watch: Part Two of the Highlights From Paris Fashion Week Spring 2025 appeared first on theFashionSpot.

It has become somewhat of a tradition for us here at theFashionSpot to throw it back a whole decade, on the eve of each fashion week. You’ve encountered our New York, London and Milan installments and now it’s time to head back to the Spring 2015 season of Paris Fashion Week.

Sarah Burton was the creative force behind Alexander McQueen in the September of 2014, offering up a collection based on her very own treasured collection of antique kimonos and intricate fabric swatches. Cropped jackets and asymmetrical mini skirts had a rock ‘n’ roll sensibility at Anthony Vaccarello’s showcase and a sporty vibe oozed from Alexander Wang’s monochromatic Balenciaga collection. Riccardo Tisci sent out a gang of his model muses decked out into corsets, leather pants and thigh-high boots at Givenchy. Simon Porte Jacquemus transformed his runway into a beach scene, complete with parasols, deck chairs and the sound of waves crashing for his Spring 2015 nautical-inspired collection. Hedi Slimane continued to display his love for all-things glam rock at Saint Laurent while the late Karl Lagerfeld staged a protest at the Chanel show, complete with models (like Cara Delevingne and Gisele Bundchen) shouting through megaphones.

The post Flashback 10 Years Ago to the Spring 2015 Season of Paris Fashion Week appeared first on theFashionSpot.

Yesterday, the whirlwind (and emotional) Spring 2025 season of Menswear Paris Fashion Week came to an almighty close. The Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode looked to Chitose Abe at Sacai to round out the six-day menswear spectacle.

Rewind to last Tuesday and it was Pharrell Williams at Louis Vuitton who opened up the French fashion festivities, as he ushered his A-list guests within the courtyard of the UNESCO building. The world’s flags served as the backdrop, as models walked the damier-inspired runway. Williams’ fifth official collection as the creative force behind the famed French fashion house boasted gender-neutral suiting, elevated denim, Western-inspired outerwear and plethora of covetable accessories.

Grace Wales Bonner’s Spring 2025 collection celebrated the work of pioneering Trinidadian artist and textile designer Althea McNish. The British designer offered a wardrobe inspired by nighttime vibrance in cities by the sea, featuring striped crochet and mouliné knitwear. Nigo, at Kenzo, chose the gardens of the Palais Royal to stage his new collection and leaned into the house’s print legacy as he boldly continues to leave his mark on the brand with his use of bamboo prints and a newfangled tiger emblem.

Subsequent to staging his last two collections within his own home, Rick Owens returned to the Palais de Tokyo for the Spring 2025 season of Menswear Paris Fashion Week. Titled “Hollywood”, the designer cast 200 models from around fashion schools in Paris and cloaked them in white belted robes, funnel-neck biker jackets, shredded bodysuits and a variety of capes. On day four, Kim Jones paid tribute to his friend, the South African ceramicist Hylton Nel. Models paraded through the show space of oversized sculptures in tailored trousers and bermuda shorts, sleeveless knits – all in a muted color palette.

JW Anderson kicked off the weekend celebrations brimming with design ideas. Celebrating 10-years at the helm of the Spanish luxury fashion house, the Northern Irish designer insisted A handful of models emerged from backstage in feathers, often gilded ones, as upside crowns hanging off their temples. A handful of models emerged from backstage shirtless, wearing only billowing, draped pants. Elsewhere throughout the collection, there was masterful uses of leather and nods to military dress. Come Saturday evening, it was time for the fashion pack to gather and bare witness to the swansong collection of Dries Van Noten.

Needless to say, the Spring 2025 season of Menswear Paris Fashion Week was a blast. Scroll further for the hits and misses, all in accordance with theFashionSpot’s loyal army of unfiltered fashion critics:

HIT | Hermès

“I am kind of loving it for its breezing and effortless styling. Definitely one of the few collections will inspire me this summer.” [JohannesL]

“I find this collection delicious. It is not your making a fashion statement collection for sure, but it serves its client base perfectly. It would fit any man’s wardrobe. The fabric looks luxurious, and the overall styling looks confident and at ease with themselves.” [Mody]

“Lots of beautiful, intelligent and thoughtful clothing here, with a light touch of playfulness. I’m looking forward to checking out the details and feel the materials in person.” [j022215]

MISS | Acne Studios

“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: What happened to this brand?” [youthinasia]

“Trash.” [matheus_s]

“This is so disrespectful to their loyal costumers.” [helmutnotdead]

See all the looks from the Acne Studios Menswear Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Yohji Yamamoto

“Best creative collection so far. Yohji’s still the genius we know.” [Constructionist]

“Still untouchable and the surprise of Charlotte Rampling!” [WAVES]

“Nice prints. The silhouettes feel so clean and livable. Humans wearing clothes instead of the opposite.” [Alquimista]

See all the looks from the Yohji Yamamoto Menswear Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Dior Men

“I don’t quite understand why Delphine Arnault keeps him around? Is Dior Men performing so well in sales that she simply doesn’t care? Or the designers she wants are unavailable/unwilling?” [GRFC]

“Why are designers these days afraid to make clothes for men? To create clothes to make you look good and confident? I hate the casting: models with no charisma and bland.” [GivenchyAddict]

“I swear he is colorblind, there is no other explanation at this point.” [avonlea002]

See all the looks from the Dior Men Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Loewe

“I think it’s lovely. Much more wearable than previous collections.” [Ihhbl]

“I actually admire this collection; it’s a a graceful output from JW. Usually when I watch a Loewe menswear show, I like the collections and appreciate JW’s experimentation but accept that it’s not super pragmatic/meant for me. But this time around, there were a few looks that I felt hit the right in-between of experimentation and ready-to-wear.” [Overindulgence]

“I’m very into the pants, to be honest. Loving how he plays with proportions and movement.” [thiago]

See all the looks from the Loewe Menswear Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Ami

“What a breath of fresh air. It is so french and unpretentiously fashionable. The Row is definitely the Temu/Shein version of this. They try so hard to look like this!” [tourbillions]

“I have such a soft spot for this brand. Good collection and great casting as usual.” [couturefan]

“This brand has been slowly floating onto my radar in recent months. Even though this collection features materials and colour combinations that I’m not necessarily usually fond of, everything is very well put together here. Many of the greens and mustard combinations actually look great, especially the looks with the men’s trenches. And then of course the reds are the end are great.” [Fiercification]

See all the looks from the Ami Menswear Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Rick Owens

“Rick Owens really thought he did something with 10 looks repeatedly 20 times on 200 models.” [THD96]

“So tired of these costume collections. Stop and design some fashion, Rick.” [Alquimista]

“I did not like this collection. I really respect Rick’s aesthetic, but it’s tired to me now. It has plateaued to put it kindly. People who are wearing Rick nowadays are all wanna-be’s, so it’s been pretty commercialized to me. Doesn’t feel as special anymore.” [jeremydante]

See all the looks from the Rick Owens Menswear Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Dries Van Noten

“A beautiful swan song. I like it doesn’t feel like the a greatest hits collection but rather a continuous chapter of his fashion journey.” [THD96]

“Perfection, top to bottom. What a spectacular swan song. I love that he goes out on an extremely high note and now he can enjoy the retirement he deserves. The casting is so perfect.” [TaylorBinque]

“A beautiful farewell, and what a wonderful casting. I collected many pieces of his shows over the years, wearing Dries to multiple key moments in my life both public and private. He truly approached menswear like no other.” [Thefrenchy]

MISS | Wales Bonner

“What’s the point of spending thousands on a fashion show when you don’t have anything interesting to present?” [avonlea002]

“Stop trying to make her happen. Constantly underwhelming.” [Lorenzogi]

“This is the kind of hyped designers that when given a heritage house falls flat. Some nice ideas but no vision.” [toubillions]

See all the looks from the Wales Bonner Menswear S/S 2025 collection.

MISS | Courrèges

“Nicolas Di Felice is talented but his gimmicks are somehow turning his good designs and cut into a whole gimmick. When you should concentrate on a cut of a jacket, a shoulder of a coat or the hem of a dress, you are there looking at a stupid hand on the pocket.” [Lola701]

“Yeah, stick to womenswear.” [tourbillions]

“Just do non-binary collections with shared spaces. Stop calling this menswear.” [jeremydante]

See all the looks from the Courrèges Menswear Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Louis Vuitton

“That was quite a great show and quite a strong collection from Pharrell. It’s better in terms of cut and silhouettes plus, some looks were very chic. The cast was wonderful. So far, the best collection of the season.” [Lola701]

“I like it, good to see Pharrell Williams actually making an effort to do something new!” [Kanzai]

“The best collection I’ve seen of him. Williams has got an eye for fashion and for a probable it-piece.” [Alquimista]

See all the looks from the Louis Vuitton Menswear Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Junya Watanabe

“A great collection!” [MModa]

“Beauty of a collection. Eccentric, well made suits. His fun jackets that I would love to own. And T-SHIRTS. The sensibility of proposing t-shirts for summer. When so many designers pretend nobody wears them cause they want to seem intellectual or something…BS. T-shirts are a staple of the modern wardrobe and fashion houses tend to sell bad ones. Not Junya.” [Alquimista]

See all the looks from the Junya Watanabe Menswear Spring 2025 collection.

MISS | Kenzo

“I just want to cry. Close the house please.” [yslforever]

“OK, it’s been 3 years. Can we fire Nigo now?” [LadyJunon]

“I admire anyone who even tries to dissect this collection and give some sort of critique. It is just complete nonsense of a collection.” [90sFan]

See all the looks from the Kenzo Menswear Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Sacai

“Everything is so easy on the eyes, and unmistakably Sacai.” [vetements]

“I love it, easily one of my favorite collections of this menswear season. This collection feels very nonchalant, a modern French look with a Sacai twist. The styling is perfect, making you want to wear the clothes straight out the runway. I’m obsessed with jackets and knitwear, they look so much fun to wear. The tailoring is sublime and relaxed but still impeccable. Bravo Chitose, another hit,” [THD96]

“The most wearable in years! I love the knits the most.” [TomBlanksFullFatMiuMiu]

See all the looks from the Sacai Menswear Spring 2025 collection.

HIT | Comme des Garçons Homme Plus

“The coats are to die for, especially these two. It’s a beautiful collection.” [avonlea002]

“I like the black coat from the first look, the flat ruffles look interesting.” [jeanclaude]

“There is so much fashion ‘good manners’ out there that I have to say I like this for not doing that. Thank you for punching my face, Rei. These clothes challenge me, seduce me. I want to try them all.” [Alquimista]

That’s a wrap on Paris Fashion Week’s Spring 2024 season, and fashion month is now complete. 26 days, 4 fashion capitals, 2 continents and 1 whole season of pure fashion thrills, excitement, grand finales and fresh starts.
Opening up Paris was Peter Do, who ventured from New York to showcase his wears within the French capital for the very first time, delivering a collection of cropped blazers, deconstructed tailoring and sheer blouses. Next up was Maria Grazia Chiuri at Christian Dior, where the designer gave a stark (and slightly haunting) feminist statement in collaboration with artist Elena Bellantoni. Anthony Vaccarello was soon unveiling a re-do of the iconic safari look at Saint Laurent, first made famous by Monsieur Yves Saint Laurent back in 1968. The look was updated in the chicest way possible, with gloves, bangles, statement earrings and killer heels finishing off each look. At Courrèges, models walked on friable concrete and just two weeks after Balmain’s collection was stolen, Olivier Rousteing gave us a lesson in volume and sculpture (as well as… resilience). Chinos, denim and stripes were on the agenda at Dries Van Noten – “normal clothes” as the designer himself called them. For spring, Julien Dossena is dressing the Rabanne woman as a warrior, dripping in chain mail (because, what else?). Gabriela Hearst was soon taking her final bow (and dance cue) as creative director of Chloé, going out with a bang by finishing off the brand’s River Seine-set showcase with a live performance from Brazil’s legendary Mangueira samba school. Rick Owens made sure he gave us a show we won’t forget quickly, with models looking otherworldly in his designs, complete with fog cannons engulfing the Palais de Tokyo. Daniel Roseberry revisited an Elsa Schiaparelli signature: the lobster, asking Kendall Jenner to close his Schiaparelli offering wearing a full lacquered fingernail dress. At Loewe, Jonathan Anderson focused on altering proportions and Yohji Yamamoto proved black will always be in fashion. Tailoring met athleisure (and technology) at Coperni, models walked through a makeshift meadow at Hermès and a standing ovation was awarded to Sarah Burton as she rounded out her tenure at Alexander McQueen. Nicolas Ghesquière paid homage to the ultimate Parisian woman at Louis Vuitton, evoking Vuitton’s spirit of travel ideology and immersing guests within a room draped in vivid orange fabric. Mugler’s show wasn’t shy of Insta-worthy moments while the full genius of John Galliano was on display at Maison Margiela. Virginie Viard, always one to be rounding out the fashion festivities, foresees a youthful and optimistic spring season ahead, full of sequins, florals, lace and pastel-colored tweeds.
Go ahead and scroll down for a completely unfiltered take on Paris Fashion Week’s Spring 2024 season, all in accordance with members of theFashionSpot forums.

MISS | Schiaparelli

“I find it quite tacky and not fun at all. There are a lot of things I absolutely hate about it, from the pieces to the styling.” [Lola701]
“Yeah I think he went overboard with the camp. It looks a bit like glorified Moschino? I think that’s the audience he’s going for. People who want a traditional silhouette while still convincing themselves that they’re ‘mAkInG a StAteMeNt'” [GoldenPetals]
“The opening is the worst part. The unbuttoned skirts section was awful. The sliced skirt with bustier was terrible. The draped pieces were pretty good but the heavy fabrics weighed them down. [Nimsay]
See all the looks from the Schiaparelli Spring 2024 collection.

MISS | Loewe

“Too much rinse and repeat.” [VERNIQUE]
“It leaves me cold. Maybe it’s the sterile presentation.” [avonlea002]
“First time I’m not feeling JW Anderson’s Loewe (his own collection did better). I guess I’m always expecting something a bit more complex from him and this felt very… light and simple? Boring would be the best word to me.” [thiago]
See all the looks from the Loewe Spring 2024 collection.

MISS | Christian Cowan

“Please make it stop.” [gallianostan]
“Go back to New York this has nothing to do in Paris…” [badgalcrush]
“Its so easy to hate this. Pure trash clothing, stuff appears literally cobbled together. Stupid gimmicks shown multiple times for some reason. No actual fashion here.” [Nimsay]
See all the looks from the Christian Cowan Spring 2024 collection.

MISS | Lanvin

“This is sad to see. Really sad.” [Cocteau Stone]
“Did they just give up? This brand has fallen so far!” [GoldenPetals]
See all the looks from the Lanvin Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Rick Owens

“I’m such a sucker for his Dune/Cyberpunk aesthetic. I can’t help but love it. I love EVERY. SINGLE. THING.” [GoldenPetals]
“Extremely well made and intriguing. Love the colors as well.” [Ihhbl]
“I do love the boots. They are fab.” [TaylorBinque]
See all the looks from the Rick Owens Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Rabanne

“A strong combination of metal and finesse.” [VERNIQUE]
“It’s definitely the strongest Dossena’s collection at Rabanne so far. It’s such a fascinating collection.” [perhydrol]
“Damn. This is gorgeous. I think my favorite collection this whole season. What a great interpretation of Paco. I love how fantastical it is, while still being grounded and wearable. I can’t even decide on a favorite piece. But the one with the peacock feathers is truly something else.” [GoldenPetals]
See all the looks from the Rabanne Spring 2024 collection.

MISS | Christian Dior

“I will not acknowledge a collection presented on that set.” [gazebo]
“How are Maria Grazia Chiuri’s clothes always so drab, ugly, and unappealing? And still with the slogans!” [MyNameIs]
“I HATE it when fashion houses shoehorn political theatrics into their show to dress up a collection that’s otherwise fine on its own. Here, it seems very forced and distracting because it’s so irrelevant.” [GoldenPetals]
See all the looks from the Christian Dior Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Alexander McQueen

“Damn I’m so emotional right now.” [prylvi]
“I love it. Fierce tailoring, so elegant. Great casting too.” [Not Plain Jane]
“It was an amazing farewell collection. Some pieces are stunning. The gold was a great surprise, the thick knitwear piece, the tailoring as always and that shade of red is perfect. The cast was also great. Well done, Sarah!” [WAVES]
See all the looks from the Alexander McQueen Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Givenchy

“I like it. Looked chic and some Givenchy codes were there. It’s a step up and I see some progress.” [Ihhbl]
“Probably Matthew Williams’ best collection. But something about the entire thing is timid and unconvincing. The chiffon draped dresses are pretty as well as the satin gown with the lace and chiffon.” [reese06]
“Did Williams get some ‘help’? A consultant designer perhaps? Because it’s the first time he fully understands what it means to be at Givenchy.” [yslforever]
See all the looks from the Givenchy Spring 2024 collection.

MISS | Isabel Marant

“I find this collection terribly embarrassing…” [Lola701]
“Marant’s shows have looked the same to me for the past 8 years!” [plentyofhorns]
“Remarkably awful. The pace was sooo slow and everyone looked so miserable. What happened to Isabel Marant is really wild to me. Went from 100 to 0 real quick.” [TianCouture]
See all the looks from the Isabel Marant Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Saint Laurent

“Another sublime collection from Anthony Vaccarello, I’m a little lost for words.” [vogue28]
“A total YES for me. Amazing clothes, ultra luxurious, loyal to the brand identity but with a contemporary feeling.” [Ihhbl]
“Brilliant! What a sublime collection, sumptuous for the eyes. Its very mid 80s Rodeo Drive rich b!tch YSL but modernized in Vaccarello’s own way. Definitely one of the best shows of the season!” [disco54]
See all the looks from the Saint Laurent Spring 2024 collection.

MISS | Peter Do

“I’m left feeling emotionless and uninspired.” [michael123]
“I must’ve deinfluenced myself because I’m not buying any of this anymore. Those pieces don’t really have their own identity and Peter doesn’t have an eye for colour. Every nice piece could be easily sourced elsewhere, probably with better quality.” [perhydrol]
“This looks very tortured and downright costume.” [Norden]
See all the looks from the Peter Do Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Hermès

“I love this, to me its the definition of quiet luxury.” [Urban Stylin]
“Impeccable, really.” [liberty33r1b]
“I wouldn’t change a thing. It’s so good, so luxurious and expensive. The leather work on the last looks is unretouchable. Great work and amazing casting!” [Ihhbl]
See all the looks from the Hermès Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Dries Van Noten

“I liked this. As a whole, this collection feels much closer in style and spirit to his work in the 1990s.” [Kennnnn]
“Lots of beautiful wearable pieces in this collection. Loved the colors and the styling.” [Ihhbl]
“Of course my man always delivers every season.” [Ruito]
See all the looks from the Dries Van Noten Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Balmain

“I like how completely different it is to the rest.” [Norden]
“I’m surprised by how much I like it. It was almost charming, and I can see myself wearing some pieces. Look 5 is a simple but fresh take on the three pieces suit. The green top with the pink pants is a fabulous look.” [Lola701]
“I liked it a lot. It’s not always right, sometimes bordering on costume but the craftsmanship is just incredible. Olivier Rousteing loves his job and it shows.” [avonlea002]
See all the looks from the Balmain Spring 2024 collection.

MISS | Marni

“When did Marni become so clownish? Most of this is extremely difficult to look at. Such poorly edited pieces.” [GoldenPetals]
“The most confusing runway presentation ever…” [Lola701]
“All the work Consuelo did to be undone by this fool [Francesco Risso] in a couple minutes. This brand is going to broke if it keeps churning this sh*t out.” [disco54]
See all the looks from the Marni Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Undercover

“In love with every thing here…” [yslforever]
“Jun Takahashi ate and left no crumbs. Stunning!” [helmutnotdead]
“Really enjoy this. At parts, it felt like he took Raf SImons’ Dior but gave it some humor and character – which is a good thing to me.” [Overindulgence]
See all the looks from the Undercover Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Courrèges

“What a fantastic collection, loved it! Sharp lines, feminine silhouettes, original use of cut. Overall, super clean and sensual too. Well done!” [WAVES]
“Very into this collection! His design language is very interesting and I love seeing him grow! Good for Di Felice!” [thiago]
“Courrèges is so hot right now. Incredible collection.” [Nimsay]
See all the looks from the Courrèges Spring 2024 collection.

MISS | Nina Ricci

“The more I look the more low-budget it gets.” [GoldenPetals]
“Hard to believe that Nina Ricci had money to throw away on this. Clothes for influencers with no real style.” [reese06]
“I can’t in good faith bring myself to like this. At the end of the day, they’re still cheap drag costumes, and at the end of the day, Harris Reed is horrendously untalented and does not deserve this appointment.” [gallianostan]
See all the looks from the Nina Ricci Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Maison Margiela

“P-E-R-F-E-C-T-I-O-N.” [Ihhbl]
“Literally not a SINGLE bad thing about this collection. I want literally everything. The way he comes up with new ways to ARRANGE the garment on the body is so brilliant, and that’s not even getting into how impeccably constructed each piece is. What a serve.” [GoldenPetals]
“The only designer I care about! Everything looks sooo delicious and the menswear jacket/coats are just fire. Love it love it love it!” [Olaffo]
See all the looks from the Maison Margiela Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Rokh

“Absolutely beautiful.” [Ihhbl]
“Oh this is so beautiful. There’s something very NOIR about it. I think it reminds me of Casablanca. The cuts are beautiful.” [GoldenPetals]
“There are some elegant aspects to this collection, especially the repeated motif of the trench.” [Not Plain Jane]
See all the looks from the Rokh Spring 2024 collection.

MISS | Chloé

“The final dance was her best effort at Chloé.” [Tchi]
“Worst Chloé collection ever!” [liberty33r1b]
“So much leather for a spring/summer collection. It can work, but it’s so heavy handed here. Lack of any lightness or actual joy. Thank god Gabriela Hearst is out now.” [Cocteau Stone]
See all the looks from the Chloé Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Louis Vuitton

“I loved it. I didn’t expect such a calm energy, soft energy from Nicolas.” [Lola701]
“I loved it… it might be one of my fave Vuitton collections. There’s an interesting mix between the 60s and 80s here – with a touch of the 2000s in the corset and pants look.” [Overindulgence]
“Loved it. I feel like I haven’t seen this type of femininity in his collections in a while. The energy seemed different here compared to his other LV shows. It was soft but still experimental in nature, so it made the few misses tolerable.” [depordetioz]
See all the looks from the Louis Vuitton Spring 2024 collection.

MISS | Coperni

“Courrèges by Shien.” [LadyJunon]
“I find Sébastien Meyer and Arnaud Vaillant’s fashion approach so obnoxious. No kindness, no softness, no poetry, no elegance, no romance, no art, no fragility, no chaos.” [IloveDiorHomme]
“It’s all so limp. Everything has a strange rippling or bubbling because the fabrics are either cheap or not appropriately utilized, especially at the seams.” [Cocteau Stone]

HIT | Carven

“Nice to see Carven back!” [Not Plain Jane]
“I like every single look. A very strong and cohesive collection, there is no weak look for me. I like that it’s very clean and very wardrobe-oriented. It’s full of everyday pieces but with interesting twists to grab your attention.” [THD96]
“I think it’s easily one of the strongest collections of this season. It’s relaxed and sporty in a very fascinating way.” [perhydrol]

MISS | AZ Factory

“No one asked for this.” [TaylorBinque]
“Why are they even continuing with this brand?” [tourbillions]
“Looking more and more like the Target collaboration we all collectively decided to forget. Not one salvageable look.” [YohjiAddict]

HIT | Yohji Yamamoto

“The kind of work only a master can produce. Bravo.” [dancv]
“Gorgeous as always. And very calming, particularly compared to what the fashion month has been giving to us. Love those opening jackets with the ivory sleeves and the gothic-lolita polka dots (which kind of look like the moon) for a strange dose of lightness.” [Cocteau Stone]
“Beautiful, as ever. A precious jewel in a sea of sh*t.” [gallianostan]

MISS | Mugler

“Trash. Next!” [gallianostan]
“Tacky stunts for Instagram.” [CommanderTMugler]
“I feel like this collection was only designed to have a bunch of work, slay, yaaas comments on Instagram and a bunch of snapping fingers at the show. No real fashion proposition.” [Lola701]

MISS | Stella McCartney

“H&M?” [Mrs.T]
“Seems a bit all over the place, no coherence.” [Not Plain Jane]
“This collection bores me to death. Her fabrics always seem cheap to me. The last two dresses are straight up hideous. I’ve never understood her appeal, if there truly is one.” [GoldenPetals]

MISS | Victoria Beckham

“This is so messy even for Victoria’s standards.” [youthinasia]
“Some truly utterly bizarre things here. The panty knit bathing-suit, the jersey draped sack dress thing with gray knee-highs, the sailor references? Too much confusion.” [TianCouture]
“This is a mess. Possibly her worst. Is she trying to be avant-garde or something? It’s not working Vicky.” [TaylorBinque]

MISS | Balenciaga

“This show felt like a farewell and I REALLY hope it’s true because, well, the trick has worn out.” [perhydrol]
“It’s so suffocating, so heavy, so cynical. Just stop.” [Machinegumm]
“Watching this left me in a state of profound sadness. It’s like a funeral procession for a moment in time, both disturbing and weirdly cathartic. I have no idea where Balenciaga can go from here, this show made sure that the ghost of the last years will hover around this brand for a long time to come.” [donyan]

MISS | Valentino

“It’s cold and repressed for a house with such a vibrant history.” [GoldenPetals]
“When you realize your collection is again boring and dull, so you throw money at a live performance at the show to distract people.” [90sFan]
“This brand has become such a pitiful joke. You have FKA Twigs and her clones in bodyshape-wear in a sandbox a models walk into the room like dolled up debutantes for the Vienna ball. The laser cuts designs reminded me of those wedding invitations that were popular 25 years ago. It’s high time for a change. Pierpaolo Piccioli is clearly and visibly at his wit’s end.” [VERNIQUE]

HIT | Sacai

“Finally we see a softer side of Chitose Abe! Love it. I need these incredible black flare trousers with the matching striped balloon top.” [VERNIQUE]
“Definitely my favorite collection this season, practicality mixed with elements of sensuality and freedom. Bravo!” [Constructionist]
“The long lean trousers are delightful; the clean white section (that oversized vest!); the distorted fairisle sweaters and striped shirts; the sheer elements: it’s all so desirable.” [Not Plain Jane]

MISS | Chanel

“For me the worst part of Virginie is that every collection just merge into the other, I really can’t tell seasons apart, always the same silhouettes, patterns, pieces, etc.” [ReneSanchez]
“This collection is like an ugly cousin of Sonia Rykiel, designed exclusively for people with no personality.” [perhydrol]
“I can’t understand why Virginie’s dresses are so ugly, she’s worked with Karl for years and seems incapable of creating an attractive black dress. The collection has no inspiration or personality, it’s just clothes, worse than that, it’s ugly clothes.” [Danilo Braz dos Santos]

MISS | Miu Miu

“Absolute trash.” [helmutnotdead]
“The amount of branding is actually f*cking insane.” [sussienmcswanny]
“Well this was a boring dud. The clothes mediocre, the styling trying so hard that it falls so flat even before one can start laughing at it. Horrible casting of blonde, white clones of nothingness and ZERO character. What a sad finale to fashion month.” [90sFan]
See all the looks from the Miu Miu Spring 2024 collection.

HIT | Ann Demeulemeester

“I really like it and it is a very good debut collection from Stefano Gallici. It was exciting, pulsating and it actually felt new.” [LadyJunon]
“This is by far the best collection they’ve done so far , and there’s real potential here.” [donyan]
“The collection is quite good, miles better than the train wrecks that this house had gotten us used to in the last few years. If Gallici continues to improve, I see hope for this brand.” [YohjiAddict]
