The Fashion week femme is fashion’s most anticipated event and returns twice a year. In February and September, the major brands unveil their ready-to-wear collections : clothing and accessories produced in series and not made to measure, intended to be sold in their various points of sale six months later. At the end of winter, the collections for the following autumn-winter are presented, while the spring-summer collections are paraded at the end of summer. If more and more big cities organize their own Fashion weeks (Tokyo, Seoul, Istanbul, Sao Paulo…), the fashion week travels historically from New York to Paris via London then Milan, stopping for a few days in each of these four major style capitals.

When is Fashion Week in Paris?
It is the most popular fashion event. The Paris Fashion Week always intervenes at the end of the Fashion month, after those in New York, London and Milan, and is by far the busiest in fashion shows. Less underground than that of London and even richer than those of Milan and New York, its fame makes it the Holy Grail for most creators in the world. Large foreign houses like Valentino (Italy), Dries Van Noten (Belgium) or Stella McCartney (United Kingdom) prefer Paris to their capital of origin to parade. Consequently, it concentrates a maximum of stars, muses and events on the sidelines from which to meet them.

Usually, Chanel organizes its show at the Grand Palais, while Dior presents its collections at the Rodin Museum. The Louvre has often been the playground of Louis Vuitton. The brands nevertheless try to keep in mind that their guests often attend several parades in the same day and try to restrict their movements in the center of Paris.

Cabin dressers, hosts and hostesses, waiters and waitresses… There is no shortage of small jobs. Otherwise, you can always go to the place of the parades and wait quietly in the “Standing” queue.

What is Haute Couture Fashion Week?
He’s the tailor Charles Frederick Worth who in 1858 created the first haute couture house, located at 7, rue de la Paix, in Paris. Since a decree of January 23, 1945, the expression “haute couture” has become a legally protected designation, granted by the Minister in charge of industry on the proposal of a commission led by the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture. At the time, houses that could claim to be haute couture were entitled to specific advantages in terms of price and supply of raw materials.
How to obtain the haute couture label?
“Haute couture” is therefore a French name, granted each year to houses of all nationalities that meet a certain number of specific criteria (such as handmade clothing, for example) and adhere to the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture, which has its origins in the 19th century. The official calendar includes “members”, “corresponding members” and “guest members”.
Only sixteen houses enjoy member status (some of whom are no longer on the runway): Adeline André, Alexandre Vauthier, Alexis Mabille, Bouchra Jarrar, Chanel, Christian Dior, Franck Sorbier, Giambattista Valli, Givenchy, Jean Paul Gaultier, Julien Fournié, Maison Margiela, Maurizio Galante, Rabih Kayrouz, Schiaparelli, Stéphane Rolland.
The Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture is part of a larger entity called Haute Couture and Fashion Federation. The latter’s main mission is to support emerging brands, perpetuate the houses already established, protect intellectual property and establish the calendar of collections presented in Paris.
What is the haute couture calendar in 2022?
Haute Couture Fashion Week takes place twice a year in Paris. As the silhouettes offered do not require long production times, unlike ready-to-wear, they are presented just before each season, in January for the spring-summer collections and in July for the fall-winter collections. During the two annual meetings high fashion organized in Paris, around thirty fashion houses show off their exceptional creations which testify to real craftsmanship and contribute to their international influence. The collections presented there serve as a showcase for the houses: they will not be produced in large numbers but made to measure for customers who request them. Each piece is therefore unique, corresponding to the desires (colours, details, length, etc.) of these exceptional consumers.
The next Haute Couture Fashion Week in Paris will take place from Sunday July 3 to Thursday July 7, 2022 and will reveal the fall-winter 2022-2023 collections.
What are the dates for Men’s Fashion Week in 2022?
