Paris Fashion Week

From Thom Browne's lesbian icons to Stella McCartney's eco warriors.

The message was clear: life is not a fairytale.

Inside a model Pompidou Centre, Louis Vuitton's autumn/winter 19 collection celebrated the style tribes of the French capital.

From Liverpool to Leeds, Sarah Burton celebrated the creativity and beauty of the northern England she grew up in.

Clare Waight Keller's latest collection for Givenchy centred on the theme of a walk through the Garden of Eden in winter.

Simple, straightforward and beautiful clothes are starting to feel new again.

“Many small shadows come together to make one powerful thing.”

Why can't everyone do it this good?

The designer's sophomore collection for Celine ignited a frenzy. Some people looked embarrassed they'd ever doubted him; others were simply happy he knocked it out of the park.

“It’s a grim, determined, clenched-teeth glamour. In my resistance, I’m going all-out glam.”

After a turbulent few years that pushed Lanvin into the fashion wilderness, its new 31-year-old Creative Director, Bruno Sialelli, just revived Paris’ oldest house.

Carol Lim and Humberto Leon put on a show to remember as they reimagined the house’s 50-year archives.
