Everything You Need To Know About Paris Fashion Week FW25, So Far

From Zomer’s reversed runway to Vaquera’s pearl-clutching collection.

Paris Fashion Week is back for the Fall/Winter 2025 season with a whopping total of 109 shows and presentations. The industry has its eyes set on big debuts — from Sarah Burton‘s Givenchy and Haider Ackermann’s Tom Ford to Alessandro Michele’s first runway collection for Valentino. Elsewhere, Hannah Rose Dalton and Steven Raj Bhaskaran of Matières Fécales will unveil their first fashion label and LOEWE will present a presentation in place of a traditional runway format.

Showcases so far include Vaquera‘s American Dream inspired collection, Zomer‘s upside-down and backwards garments, GANNI‘s nod to Parisian classics and Abra‘s take on ’80s punk nostalgia. We’re looking forward for more to come from Balenciaga, Marine Serre, Miu Miu and, of course, Coperni, which plans to host a LAN party with 200 global gamers. The week’s events will close with Saint Laurent‘s show on March 11.

Vaquera’s Supersized Accessories

On the opening night of PFW, NYC label Vaquera supersized its accessories and signature lingerie to gigantic proportions, in a collection that looks both to the past and future for inspiration. This summer, the brand’s creative directors Bryn Taubensee and Patric DiCaprio will officially move their studio to Paris which made them reflect on their time in New York City and feelings of anticipation, or what they call “future nostalgia.”

The duo unveiled a sophomore partnership with D’Heygere Jewelery which created the collection’s oversized heart shaped pendants. Working with the Andy Warhol Foundation, Vaquera also designed denim featuring Andy Warhol‘s print of Marilyn Monroe.

Zomer’s Reversed Runway

“What is the right way to wear a garment? Which side is the front, and which is the back? Upside down or right side up?,” Zomer’s press notes share. For their FW25 collection, Zomer’s creative directors Danial Aitouganov and Imruh Asha were inspired by the child-like wonder of dressing up. Breaking the standard runway format, Zomer began with a final walk to start the show and ended by waving with their backs turned to the audience. The collections’ garment offering further explores their idea of twisting, undoing and glitching traditional forms of dressing. Jackets were worn backwards with the zipper going up the spine, oversized collared shirts were turned upside down and trousers were flipped on their heads.

GANNI’s Skirts-Over-Trousers

After the success of its inaugural PFW show for Spring/Summer 2025, GANNI returned to Paris with a collection dripping in layers. Romantic draping, rich textures and vintage florals defined this poetic collection while flowing dresses in muted florals nodded to classic Parisian style. While we’ve seen skirts-over-trousers steadily rise for the past few season, GANNI furthered this aesthetic with bulky fabrics and a cross-pollination of materials. Pastel pink and light grey seem to be the go-to color combo for FW25 dressing, seen in GANNI’s collection through two piece sets, fur-lined jackets and chunky knitwear.
