Paris Haute Couture Week is finished. As always, this season was not just about fashion shows. Famous fashion houses and designers showed again how fashion and art are connected. Haute Couture Week always brings new ideas, styles, and trends. It is a mix of creativity, beauty, and vision. Now, we are happy to show you the most special collections- clothes full of inspiration and detail.
The week started with the traditional Schiaparelli show. Daniel Roseberry’s new collection again won the hearts of fashion lovers. His Autumn/Winter 2025-2026 collection had strong shapes, unique prints, beautiful fabrics, and clothes decorated with leather and fur. The colors were also perfect. Roseberry showed again that he is a great designer who knows how to mix surreal style with modern ideas.
The second day began with the show from CHANEL. This was the last collection made without a creative director. In September, Matthieu Blazy will officially join the brand. The new collection, made by the creative team, had a strong CHANEL look. The inspiration came from the beauty of nature. Every guest had a golden wheat decoration on their chair-a symbol of Coco Chanel, who loved nature and often found inspiration in it.
One of the most elegant shows was from Armani Privé. The collection, as always, was loved by fashion fans. The main color this season was black-a favorite of Giorgio Armani-mixed with stylish colors like blue, green, and grey. The Autumn/Winter 2025-2026 collection showed Armani’s classic style again: elegant shapes, rich fabrics, and beautiful accessories.
There was also a big debut-Glenn Martens showed his first collection for Maison Margiela. The collection had beautiful clothes and a special, nostalgic accessory: the mask. Martens brought back the famous masks from Martin Margiela’s first show in 1989. The Belgian designer wanted people to focus on the clothes, not the models. Later, the mask became a symbol of the brand. With this important detail, Glenn Martens introduced himself as the new creative director of Maison Margiela.
And finally-who else but Demna? This was Demna’s last show for Balenciaga. Soon, the famous Georgian designer will become the creative director of Gucci, and Pierpaolo Piccioli will take over at Balenciaga. The show took place in the historic Avenue George V salon, opened by Cristóbal Balenciaga in 1937 and restored by Demna in 2020. The collection showed big respect for the brand’s past and Demna’s modern ideas. It was a beautiful goodbye-a strong and emotional final show that will stay in fashion history.
