The Latest From The Runways at Paris Fashion Week

Another day of shows brought colour, creativity and striking moments to the runways of Paris Fashion Week yesterday. Designers continued to present their visions for the season ahead, offering everything from sculptural tailoring to dramatic silhouettes. Here are some of the standout moments and collections you might have missed.

Schiaparelli AW26

Schiaparelli

Elegance took centre stage at Schiaparelli as Daniel Roseberry unveiled his Autumn/Winter 2026 collection. Working within a restrained palette of neutrals, the designer allowed silhouette to lead the conversation, presenting sculpted tailoring, dramatic lines and refined structure that demonstrated how impact can come from form rather than colour. Roseberry’s vision was shaped by the house’s enduring dialogue between fashion as craftsmanship and fashion as fantasy, a philosophy first championed by founder Elsa Schiaparelli.

As the upcoming Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art retrospective at London’s V&A Museum prepares to celebrate her legacy, the collection echoes her belief that clothing can be both an object of artistry and a powerful tool of self-expression. Roseberry explored this throughout the collection, balancing softness with structure and tradition with innovation, creating pieces that felt connected to the Maison’s surrealist heritage.

Chloé’s AW26

Chloé’s Autumn/Winter 2026 collection saw Creative Director Chemena Kamali exploring the meaning of “folk” and the shared traditions that connect communities. “For me, folk is about togetherness,” Kamali explained in the show notes. “It is about empathy, humanity, and a connection to the past — the symbolic and spiritual threads that bind people together.”

For Kamali, the collection was also a reflection on how clothing can carry emotion and memory. Inspired by traditional costume and folk craft, she looked closely at the human touch behind each garment, where embroidery, knitted threads and printed motifs reveal the time, devotion and skill of their makers. By bringing these gestures of care into a contemporary wardrobe, the collection became both a tribute to heritage and a renewal of it.

Rabanne, women, FW26/27,

Rabanne’s latest collection saw Julien Dossena continue his exploration of modernist femininity, presenting a vision that rejects excessive polish in favour of something more instinctive and lived in. The collection embraced fashion as a living art form, where references from different decades are deconstructed and recombined to create something entirely contemporary.

Dossena’s characters moved through the collection with a quiet confidence, embodying individuality. Dressing up here felt personal, reflecting an intimate connection between the wearer and their clothing. Through layered textures, unexpected combinations and expressive silhouettes, the designer celebrated self-expression, suggesting that style today is shaped by attitude and the freedom to reinterpret the past in one’s own way.

Isabel Marant AW26

Isabel Marant closed the third day of Paris Fashion Week with a collection that captured the brand’s signature blend of effortlessness and sensuality. Presented at the Palais de Tokyo, the Autumn/Winter 2026 lineup centred on the designer’s enduring muse: the confident woman whose style feels instinctive. The show opened with sheer tanks paired with distressed skinny jeans, setting a relaxed tone that carried throughout the collection.

Patent-leather outerwear, denim shorts and cropped jackets introduced sharper silhouettes, while blue leather dresses, striped knits and quilted bombers added a sense of casual cool. Texture played an important role, with sweeping long-haired coats bringing drama to the runway. Elsewhere, lace eveningwear and structured outerwear balanced softness with strength, reaffirming Marant’s ability to merge Parisian ease with understated glamour.
