Paris Fashion Week: Haute couture shows go ahead after riots
By Paul GlynnEntertainment reporter
Celebrities and designers have kicked off Paris' couture Fashion Week , which is taking place against a backdrop of Five Days of violence in The City .
US rap star Cardi B , singer Camila Cabello and actress Maisie Williams are among those in The French capital.
But there is some unease about The displays of materialism for The ultra-wealthy following serious civil unrest.
Some said catwalk shows and cocktail parties should be cancelled, and others said The fashionistas were " tone deaf".
The Telegraph's head of fashion, " These heavily scented, diamond-encrusted, removed-from-every-reality clients can seem weird even in normal times, but This Week , they seem almost surreally tone deaf. "
She added That one attendee noted how it was " quite odd to see how The big French brands haven't acknowledged what's going at All In their own country".
The violence In Paris and other French cities was sparked by The fatal shooting of teenager Nahel M during a police Traffic Stop , but The trouble appeared to have subsided by Monday.
Also on Monday, The First Haute Couture collections - The Most elite branch of The Fashion industry, where dresses are custom-made to fit clients for eye-watering sums - were unveiled.
Some brands, like Chloe, did cancel parties at The weekend but only one major label, Celine, pulled a show entirely because of The riots.
Its menswear show on Sunday, which was believed to have been planned to include live music performances in an expression of French youth culture, was not part of The official Fashion Week Calendar .
That " a Fashion Show In Paris , while France and its capital are bereaved and bruised, seems… inconsiderate and totally misplaced".
Others brushed aside concerns, Getting On with shows on Monday inspired by Greek goddesses at Christian Dior , fine art at Schiaparelli and mermaids at Iris Van Herpen.
: " That they are proceeding untroubled by turbulence in less affluent areas of The City is perhaps a reflection of The polarisation That underpins The Situation in France. "
That some influencers were acting as though they had been " mildly inconvenienced" by The protests.
'Beautiful'Cardi B travelled to The French capital and attended Schiaparelli's display of its Haute Couture fall/winter 2023-2024 Fashion Collection .
, The Star hailed The Show as " beautiful". " They always have an Amazing Show So What 's new? " she later told Vogue. " It never fails to Surprise Me . "
Dior, meanwhile displayed its latest classical era-inspired Collection in The Garden of The Musée Rodin, focusing on beige, gold and cream colours and fabrics, and simple " ancient garments" such as tunics and capes.
The brand's creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri said such items were " not only for The red carpet" but were in fact intended for people to " build a wardrobe".
Dutch designer Van Herpen - whose designs are a fixture of red carpets and feature in Beyonce's Renaissance tour - presented an aquatic and futuristic Collection to a crowd including Cabello and Williams.
Actresses Margaret Qualley , Lupita Nyong'o and Jenna Coleman were among The Stars at The Chanel show on The Banks of The Seine on Tuesday, along with rapper Kendrick Lamar and directors George Lucas and Baz Luhrmann .
Monday saw The couture debuts of US designer Thom Browne and 26-year-old Charles de Vilmorin, who presented his own brand after having briefly served as artistic director of Rochas.
The Frenchman told AFP news agency: " I'm super happy to have lived through all this and to do my first show. "
