What a time to be alive for fashion fans right now.
Immediately after the iconic Glastonbury festival came Wimbledon (which is ongoing until July 14th), and today, July 7th, marked the beginning of the autumn-winter 25/26 Paris Couture Week shows.
Paris fashion weeks never fail to bring us a slew of star-studded glamour. The most notable names on the planet grace the prestigious front rows to witness the latest collections from the biggest designer fashion brands on the planet.

Taking a break from her Radical Optimism world tour, which ends in December this year, she graced the show alongside the likes of Hunter Schafer, Cardi B and Karol G. She oozed couture flapper girl vibes in a striking, structured white maxi dress, adorned with layers of petal-like embellishments that cascade from shoulder to hem like Art Deco feathers. The dramatic silhouette featured strong shoulders, a daring thigh-high slit and a cut-out at the chest, in the shape of Schiaparelli's signature keyhole silhouette.

Last month, she finally confirmed that she and Callum Turner are set to wed, following months of speculation swirling online.
In a recent interview with British Vogue, the singer told writer Gaby Wood: “Yeah, we’re engaged,” adding: “It’s very exciting. This decision to grow old together, to see a life and just, I don’t know, be best friends forever – it’s a really special feeling.”
