Paris closed the cycle of women’s ready-to-wear weeks with the presentation of the proposals for the next fall-winter 2024/25 from the most renowned luxury brands. Although the clothes and accessories are the main protagonists of the shows, some of the most stellar moments on the Parisian catwalk have been starred by celebrities.
The French Marine Serre show brought out the unmatched resemblance between Denise Ohnona and the model Kate Moss. The first, who describes herself as “the world’s number one clone of Kate Moss”, fooled everyone in attendance by parading dressed like the 90s supermodel.
Georgina Rodríguez also surprised by debuting as a model for Vetements with a long red soccer-inspired dress in which the name of Cristiano Ronaldo was written on the chest. As a detail, a dedication from the footballer written on the number seven shirt.
Another of the most viral moments of Fashion Week occurred at the Victoria Beckham show. The designer saw her presentation interrupted by PETA activists who denounced the use of animal skins in fashion.
With posters saying “long live vegan leather” and t-shirts with messages such as “animals are not fabric” they focused on Beckham’s responsibility to not resort to living beings to create his collections. The designer did not make any statement in this regard and she went out to greet the public after the show leaning on crutches – the result of an accident she had in the gym the days before the show.
The Parisian firm Coperni presented the Swipe bag, a science fiction model made of airgel, a silicon-based material used by NASA to capture star dust, which is a thousand times less dense than glass and, in terms of volume, It is composed of 99% air. The result, a bag that looks like a cloud and weighs only thirty grams.
The guests at the Rabanne show also became galactic models for a day with outfits full of fabrics with metallic appliqués, chains and glitter. Among the Spanish women, the charismatic Bad Gyal caused a sensation with a metallic mesh outfit, in gold and silver tones, that incorporated a matching hood, the work of Julien Dossena. At the parade she met her professional colleague Aitana and they both posed together in front of the photographers.
Kim Kardashian only attended the Balenciaga show with a gothic look that was quickly compared to the iconic outfit of the character played by Angelica Huston, Morticia Addams.
Chanel invited Penélope Cruz, among other celebrities, to a fictitious promenade on a long beach in the French town of Deauville, where Gabrielle Chanel opened her first fashion boutique. Before the show held at the iconic Grand Palais, a black and white short film brought Penélope Cruz and Brad Pitt together for the first time on the big screen, to the delight of all the guests.
Next, Virginie Viard gave a recital of elegance, adapting to new times but without losing sight of the classics that support the foundations of the house such as the classic tweed jacket suits.
