If you know anything at all about fashion, you know that Paris Fashion Week is the most important week in fashion out of the entire year. (It’s like Christmas for the fashion geeks and it takes place in Paris). There are four fashion weeks throughout the entire year taking place in New York, Paris, London, and Milan. Although these four locations share importance to the fashion community, Paris, the home of the first-ever fashion week has always been the most popular. Although throughout the week 100 different shows will take place, the big named brands such as Chanel, Dior, and Louis Vuitton are the most anticipated events at Paris Fashion Week.
With beautiful and scenic catwalks themed elegantly to match the surreal feel of Paris, each show promised a beautiful new look book for the 2022 season. Although the shows themselves featured stunning models and well-crafted outfits, the celebrities visiting Paris for the shows have gained a lot of attention from the public eye.
My favorite trio Tyler the creator, Ye (Kanye West), and Pharrell Williams, were all spotted together for the Kenzo show. Accompanied by Pusha T and Gunna, the trio posed for pictures together riling up the press. During the Kenzo show, a song featuring Tyler the creator and A$ap rocky was teased on the runway, leaving fans speculating if another iconic duo will create a special song in Paris.
One of the most important artists in attendance, Tyler the creator, told the world via Instagram that he had designed the soundtrack for Virgil’s final Louis Vuitton show since his passing. The soundtrack was filled with beautiful beats and ballads, designed specifically as a tribute to Tyler’s good friend and genius, Virgil Abloh. Tyler was spotted riding his bike around the catwalk while his soundtrack followed close behind.
Making the whole week special by honoring Virgil, the Louis Vuitton show was by far my favorite out of the 100 other shows, making it in my opinion the most sentimental, yet stylish fashion show ever. With a beautiful runway themed perfectly for their winter/fall collection, the music, models, and machinery made the whole show perfect.
As Paris Fashion week comes to a close, we make a special tribute to Virgil and all he has done for the fashion industry.
