Front-row appearances built hype for the Oscars red carpet, while a runway controversy and collaborations added edge to the proceedings.
Paris Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2026 wrapped with high-profile celebrity attendees amplifying the shows' visibility. Teyana Taylor, nominated for Best Supporting Actress, fronted Chanel—sparking Oscar ambassador rumors. Margot Robbie channeled sporty elegance echoing Matthieu Blazy’s prior couture at the same house, Paul Anthony Kelly evoked John F. Kennedy Jr. at Dior, and Chappell Roan stunned in a corset dress at Vivienne Westwood.
Emily Ratajkowski opted for a knotted cardigan at Loewe, Alysa Liu rocked baggy denim at Louis Vuitton, Natasha Lyonne brought personal flair to Celine, and Naomi Watts appeared in a striking black-and-white look at Balmain’s debut under Antonin Tron. Balenciaga’s Euphoria-inspired sets, created with Sam Levinson, featured ambassador Hudson Williams, while anticipation grew for Los Angeles pre-Oscars events like The Wall Group’s 25th anniversary and Revolve’s launch hosted by Bella Hadid.
Unique collection moments complemented the runways: Haider Ackermann’s Tom Ford show with vinyl skirts, leather, and lace; Schiaparelli’s surrealist figure-enhancing dresses ahead of a London exhibition; Saint Laurent’s sensual 60th anniversary Le Smoking tuxedos; Miu Miu’s nature-inspired nylon and fur looks; and Gabriela Hearst’s artisanal lace and recycled mink honoring Save the Children muse Eglantyne Jebb.
