What to Look Forward to at Paris Fashion Week Fall 2026

1K

Paris Fashion Week is here again and while last season offered a smorgasbord of splashy debuts — Jonathan Anderson at Dior, Miguel Castro Freitas at Mugler, Mark Thomas at Carven, Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez at Loewe, Duran Lantink at Jean Paul Gaultier, Matthieu Blazy at Chanel, Pierpaolo Piccioli at Balenciaga, Michael Rider at Celine, and Glenn Martens at Maison Margiela — this season will see those same designers showing their second collections for their new houses. Second collections are, arguably, even more important than debuts, as they often offer a more settled expression of the designer’s vision for the brand. The difference between these debut and sophomore efforts can tell you a lot about what buyers — if not consumers quite yet — are and are not responding to. And a radcial departure from season one to season two could signal a crisis of confidence or a new willingness to step boldly forward.

Of course, there is one major debut this season: Antonin Tron will show his first collection for Balmain.

Then there is Pieter Mulier’s final collection for Alaïa, which is sure to be a banger.

And given the financial troubles at McQueen recently — and at Kering overall — this season also feels like a make-or-break for designer Seán McGirr. Here’s hoping he can pull of something spectacular for Fall 2026.
