The official Paris Fashion Week schedule is here.
The Spring/Summer 2027 women’s ready-to-wear calendar, which will run from September 28 to October 6, features a total of 68 shows and 33 presentations, compared to a respective 74 shows and 37 presentations for SS26. That was a historic season, marked by an unprecedented wave of designer debuts. This season will see just two: Courrèges’s new artistic director Drew Henry, whose debut is on September 30 at 10.30am, and Carven’s new design director, Kai Nesselrath, whose show is on October 1 at 12.30pm.
A number of brands are returning to the calendar after a season or more off: Valentino, which showed its fall 2026 collection in Rome, Maison Margiela, which showcased its last collection in Shanghai, Sacai, Ester Manas, Christopher Esber, and Casablanca.
Other highlights include blockbusters Dior, Saint Laurent, Chanel, Tom Ford, Dries Van Noten, Balenciaga, Loewe, Celine, Miu Miu, and Louis Vuitton. To note, Alaïa is hosting a presentation on October 3. The collection will be designed by the studio, as the house is yet to appoint a new creative director after Pieter Mulier left for Versace early this year.
Joining the official show calendar for the first time is Maxhosa Africa, the South African label founded by designer Laduma Ngxokolo. His creations have been worn by the likes of Beyoncé and Michelle Obama.
Newcomers to the presentation calendar include Alexandra Golovanoff, the Parisian designer and journalist who launched her eponymous cashmere line in 2016, before expanding it into a complete wardrobe collection. Also new, Fidan Novruzova, the Central Saint Martins graduate with Azerbaijani roots and a Moldovan upbringing, who was selected as a semi-finalist for the LVMH Prize in 2024.
Among the notable absentees from the show schedule is McQueen, who is making a return to its home turf at London Fashion Week under the vision of Seán McGirr and newly appointed CEO Gianfranco D’Attis. Rabanne is also skipping this season, since new creative director Olivier Rousteing will present his debut show in March. Other absentees are Nina Ricci, whose creative director Harris Reed stepped down in March 2026, and Off-White.
