As Paris Fashion Week draws closer to its end, it has left us with a bold and often maximalist sense of joie de vivre. From the dramatic surrealism of Schiaparelli and the surprising dark romance of Rick Owens to the ephemeral, yet timeless meadow of Hermés, Spring/Summer 2024 has once again proven why Paris remains the fashion capital of the world.
