The State of Fashion Right Now: Paris Fashion Week, Luxury Prices & Viral Runway Trends
Description
Paris Fashion Week just wrapped and the fashion industry feels like it’s at a turning point.
I sit down with friend of the show and fashion editor-at-large at 032c, Brenda Weischer, to break down the biggest moments from the season - from Chanel’s viral shoes to Tom Ford’s standout show, and the collections that sparked the most conversation across the industry.
In this conversation, we get into:
- The shows that defined Paris Fashion Week this season
- Why Chanel might have quietly won fashion month
- The runway moments everyone is talking about right now
- The collections that felt exciting — and the ones that fell flat
- Why luxury fashion prices are reaching a breaking point
- How fashion houses balance creativity with pressure to sell
- The debate around what “sexy” means in fashion today
- How creators and commentators are reshaping fashion coverage
- What actually happens behind the scenes at fashion shows
- And how to take runway inspiration and translate it into your real wardrobe
