"From Sept. 29 to Oct. 7, the City of Light transformed into a veritable City of Celebrities, where A-listers rubbed elbows with fashion insiders, all watching closely as this season's game of creative director roulette played out. Was Jonathan Anderson's womenswear debut at Dior everything it promised to be? Did Demna kill Balenciaga - or did the brand get a much-needed facelift?"
"the beauty looks were just as playful, character-driven, and high-drama as the collections. From icy blue eyeshadow to lacquered red lips, every designer seemed to be crafting a specific woman. The Tom Ford muse? Sharp-edged, minimal, a little brutalist - with a perfect bob and red lip to match. The Balmain girl? Sun-kissed and Riviera-coded, fresh from a South of France getaway."
Paris Fashion Week ran Sept. 29 to Oct. 7 and turned the city into a hub of celebrities and industry insiders amid creative director reshuffles. High-profile questions emerged about Jonathan Anderson at Dior and Demna’s impact on Balenciaga, while celebrity hair changes drew attention. Beauty looks matched the theatricality of collections with playful, character-driven, high-drama styling.

Standout moments included frosty eyeshadow, roller hair, sunburn blush, blunt cuts, and schoolgirl eyeliner shaping immediate trends.
