So, it’s Paris Fashion Week again, and Anna Wintour presented the Vogue World Paris Show at the Place Vendôme on Sunday.

A cohort of famous faces took part in the sold-out Vogue World event, celebrating 100 years of fashion and sport in the iconic city. The venue for the catwalk show – famed Place Vendôme – a square which is a renowned location for fine jewellery – was the inspiration for a Catherine Deneuve film. Last year the event was hosted in London, whilst a year earlier the Big Apple was the backdrop for the high fashion extravaganza.

Some of the Kardashians arrived on horse-back – obviously – to celebrate the sporty side of things (perhaps).

My fave ‘curvy’ model, 32 year-old Kate Upton, was the first on the catwalk. She looked eye catching in a MiuMiu tiny black ruffled mini skirt which boasted an orange low rise waistband. She added a chic blue open collar checked shirt with the number which she tied at the waist as she walked the fashion show. And she was wearing this year’s MUST HAVE – red socks and platform gold sandals – as previously discussed in various Zips It Up items.
Those who were unable to get a ticket for the event were able to watch the action unfold on a live stream, hosted by Cara Delevingne.

With the Paris Olympics forthcoming imminently, this year’s Vogue World collaborated with youth athletic academies across France, pairing different sports with a history of 100 years of French fashion. The sports included cycling, gymnastics, tennis, fencing, and break dancing, among others, and the fashion element shone a spotlight on both modern and historic designers.
Speaking on the event, Vogue’s global editorial director and Condé Nast chief content officer Anna commented that the Paris event ‘will be a kind of opening ceremony; one that celebrates 100 years of fashion and sport, as well as this extraordinary city.’
A percentage of the net proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the humanitarian organisation Secours Populaire. The organisation facilitates access to essential equipment for young, aspiring athletes across France.

Artists who performed during the show included Bad Bunny and Aya Nakamura. (I’m not sure either). Plus, Katy Perry made a surprise appearance on the catwalk in the barely-there ensemble and joined a host of other celebrities. She was completely nude in a geometric cut-out dress as she walked the star-studded runway. She flashed her cleavage in the racy look and covered the rest of her modesty with floral motifs.

Elsewhere Rihanna played the supportive partner as A$AP Rocky showed off his designs during Paris Fashion Week. On Friday (June 21), the “Diamonds” diva attended the A$AP Rocky X American Sabotage by AWGE Menswear Spring/Summer 2025 show in Paris. She was rocking another stylish new hairstyle, after showing off her natural hair earlier this month.

For her latest outing, her hair was long and straight with blonde highlights throughout. She looked stylish in a white tank dress, which she paired with a burgundy jacket, chunky red sunglasses and pointed-toe shoes.
